wet and WILD

So for Elyse's (my sister-in-law) birthday we (and when i say we i automatically am referring to my family haha) went to Wet and Wild. (the waterpark in Glendale...listed as one of the most extreme water parks) ya baby! It was SO MUCH FUN!

At first when we got there I was thinking to myself..hmmm... now would be a good time to be married. The group consisted of: Nicole & Ty, Monique & Adam, David & Elyse,...and me. yep just me. haha It ended up being really fun though! We got in the wave pool first and Monique threw on her goggles. Typical Monique! LOVE IT! i was wishing i had brought mine.

The best part about the night was making jokes about me being by myself and asking random strangers to ride with me. I went up to one lifeguard and asked him if you were allowed to ride in a double tube on your own. I stared at the floor awkwardly and a little tear dropped from my lonely face. JUST KIDDING! but i really did ask him. haha he replied yes and then my sister was starts cracking up. Me: Whats so funnY? Nicole: did you just ask him to ride with you in a round about way? Me: NO! Nicole: right! hahah

The rest of the night proceeded in that way. After one of the slides everyone took a while to get down after me, and so i stood awkardly all alone with the lifeguard. Finally i broke the silence. "So...do you like your job?"

"Ya sure"

"Do you get paid well?"

"Uh huh."

"well thats good."

(awkward silence)

"so do you ever get bored?"

"ya sometimes."

"thats rough. Its hot! You must get so hot!"

"ya i do...thats why you gotta like the job or it sucks."

(in my head..isn't that an epic thought..haha)

"well cool. Maybe i'll become a lifeguard some day."

"ya you should."

(My sibblings arrive..thank goodness)

"well nice meeting you!"

I swear the poor lifeguard thought i was just a lonely girl trying to find a friend. I think she was relieved when she realized i did actually come with people. haha

To finish off the night we went on the scariest ride. It was like the sidewinder at sunsplash, (the big half pipe thingy) only the beginning of the ride is nice and slow, and you sit in a big round tube that can fit up to 4 people. As I was standing in line I was so cool about it. "Ya this ride is no big deal I'm stoked," I'd say to passerbys. Then as we got up to the front of the line I hit panic mode. "Wow we are really high up aren't we?" "hmm this is looking kinda freaky." "you know that red slide looks fun. I bet we could hit up that one instead..." Unfortunately the time came to get inside the tube of doom. I felt as if i was stepping into my coffin. "Goodbye! I yelled to the new friends i'd made in line." Then just as the lifeguard pushed the button to make us go I managed to yell out, "Wait is there a certain position i should sit in to not die?!" He pressed the button to stop the ride in a frenzy and just stared at me. I stared back. Then i mustered a half smile. He pressed the button to go. I guess that was a bad question. haha

To lighten the mood i sang "yo ho yo ho a pirates life for..."

then we went down the big half pipe.

"MEEEEEEEE AHHHHHHHHH"

It was CRAZY!! we definitely got air! i'd say my life flashed before my eyes but really I didn't see anything cus i closed my eyes and screamed until the ride ended. haha

When we finished my legs were literally jelly. LIterally. If you wanted a PB&J, you could just place me on some bread. haha The ride was totally fun tho! We went on it again and the second time was even better! I loved being with my family. They are so fun!

Overall the night was a blast. I am so incredibly blessed because there is no one i'd rather be with in the world than my family. They are my support group, my best friends. I honestly don't know where i'd be without them. I'm so grateful for them in my life.

Right now life is peachy! I'm wondering when big foot is going to come and smash my peach with his hairy foot! its gotta be coming soon right? Oh well that that don't kill you, can only make you stronger!

Anyone want to come party with me? Make a healthy dinner and then ruin it with some delicious chocolate cookies? :)

Thats alllllll folks. have a good day:)!
