On July 9th Jared and I headed to Moab, UT to celebrate our birthdays.
Yes, our birthdays are in March and April, but we bought ourselves certificates to go SKYDIVING!
What a GREAT way to celebrate 30 years of life!
We spent the night in Moab then Tuesday the 10th we headed to the airport. I must admit there were only 2 times when I was a little nervous. First was driving to the airport, then second I will mention later!
Once we filled out our paperwork saying we won't sue the company ect, ect. We headed to the hanger where we watched a LAME, and luckily short movie about the ins and out of skydiving. Then we suited up.
Climbed in the very old airplane with no door on the side
Checked out the amazing views
At this point I was still FINE
Jared was going first. This is him haning his body out of the plane
Head back so he can breath
POINT #2 of being nervous. Watching Jared get "sucked" out of the plane and see him fly by the window. Those nervous didn't last long because I had to start moving towards the door.
Even though his head is cut off, I LOVE this shot!
Enjoying the ride down. He even got to steer
Jared had one heck of a landing.
They both got pretty dirty and the jump master even got a cut on his nose from his goggles.
My turn
Hanging my legs out the airplane.
No nerves, just pure EXCITEMENT!
Head back
and here we GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I like this shot of me with the airport in the background
LOVING every second!
Enjoying the parachute ride down
I even got to steer
2 thumbs WAY UP

Glad you guys got to have the experience. Next time I'm sure Darwin will do it with you, but I'm still going to take a lot more convincing :) My hands get sweaty just looking at your pictures. Happy belated birthdays! Love you guys!
