So this weekend was pretty much the BOMB!! I got to go to Roosevelt lake to hang out with my family and I took my wonderful friends Kylee Bloomfield, Maggie Nickolls, and Katie Christensen with me too. Let me tell you that was one of the best weekends I have had in a while and it was much needed. I have been studying so much for the 6 tests I have had this week so after doing all that studying I deserved a break.

Saturday morning Jaden wakes me up early and we go out with my dad to do some slaloming on the super smooth glass water. I have not had that much fun skiing in a very long time. I could actually concentrate on my form without worrying about the other waves in the water threatening to knock me down any second. I rode so hard that my leg and hands could not take any more so I was forced to stop. But after Jaden and Dad went I had another round and it was the best! I love feeling that speed and air fly past me. Wow what a good morning.

Dad made french toast after we got back to shore and then after we took my friends out onto the water to give them a try at wake board and knee board. They all did great! I am proud of the effort that they put in. After we were all worn out from that we went back to pick up mom and Jaden to go out tubing.

When I went I was on there with Maggie and discovered a new way of riding it. I laid down on my back and grabbed the handles as a joke and told my mom to go and she actually did so I spent about 5 minutes riding on my back not knowing where the boat was going to fling me. It was the best ride ever. Unfortunately we had to stop because I was hurting Maggies arm so I had to switch directions and lay on my stomach. This time my mom was really mean on us and after trying to get us out of the wake on Maggies side without success, my mom turned the boat to where it would whip me out of the wake and holy cow she whipped us out so fast! I was holding on with all the strength I had in my hands and it just kept going and going. I was literally holding on with the tips of my fingers before I just slipped off and hit the water. The water was not nice to me though. I hit on my side and was like a rock bouncing on the water. I hit the water on my back then would turn over hit my stomach then flip over and hit my back until finally I stopped and just floated in the water. Wow that was fun but it sure did hurt more than anything. I have bruises on my leg from it but would go and do that any day again.

Well time went by so fast that day. My parents had to leave the lake by 3 so we all went back to camp had lunch and then packed everything up. I really had tons of fun and had a hard time saying bye to my family but I want to thank them for the good time we had. I love you guys!
