iFly

I love to give 'experiences' for gifts, so Luke and Wes both got iFly gift certificates for Christmas and we finally got around to going sometime in April.  Hayley wanted to bring her camera to take photos, so I left mine at home.  Since I didn't see the photos on my chip I promptly forgot about them until recently, so that is why I am just getting around to posting these fun pictures.  They both had a blast and Hayley and I had almost as much fun just watching them!  I would highly recommend this for adventure seekers!

Suited up and ready to go!

Everyone has to take a 30 minute training class prior to doing their two turns.  I think each turn was about 2 minutes.

The wind speeds for Wes and Luke were between 85 - 120 miles an hour.  The speed depends upon
the weight of each person.

This was a really special day for Wes and Luke.  What a treat.... definitely on the expensive side, but worth it!

Wes' Birthday Party

Wes turned 49 today and I didn't just want to do the usual family dinner at our house.  Sooooo, I thought if a kid could have a birthday party at the roller rink then why not a 49 year old?  It was a brilliant idea if I do say so myself!  I also knew that if Wes had his choice, he would not choose to celebrate in a roller rink.... that's why it was a surprise!  tee hee.  Anyway, it ended up being a really fun way to celebrate with family.  I think it will be a tradition to do something fun and interactive for family celebrations!  Hmmmmm, maybe next year the rock climbing gym?!!

It looks like Wes is helping little Lauren to skate, but in actuality, I think Lauren was helping to hold up Uncle Wes!

Most of the fam

Couples dance... I think I'm actually skating backwards!

Nicole, Ryan, Cody and Dylan

Happy Birthday Wesley Dean!  I love you!

  

Father's Day Baptism

Wes recently made the awesome decision to be baptized.  It was a really special day for a number of reasons.  First, the fact that he was being baptized.  Second, because it was on Father's Day. Third, because he decided to include our entire Small Group... this one's kind of a big deal because Wes is an extremely private person. And, finally, because the person that baptized him was our own pastor, Daniel Foster.  It was quite an honor because this was Daniel's very last day as our pastor!  We are so, so sad to see him go, but we're so excited for him and his wife, Anita on his new role within the church.  Anyway, it was a beautiful day and we're all so happy for Wes.



HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
