4th of July!

So this year for 4th of July we went to the Bleyls river house on the James. It started at 1 but we didnt get there til around 4 because we had to wait for Michelle to get off of work. I hung out with Tyler Moore, whos leaving for his mission to Guatemala this summer, for the first half because everyone else was out on the boat tubing and water skiing. They finally came up, so I hung out with Mike, Jenn, Tyler, Penelope, Juan, Matt, Leslie, Megan, etc. The usual I guess. I just layed on the dock for a while after dinner until Mitchell found me and I just hung out with him while everyone else was having a mud fight in the river. We decided that we wanted to go on the Jet Ski so we asked chase and he said to ask his dad. As we were walkinng up to find bro. Bleyl mitch shoved me a little to make me think he was going to push me in and i scraped my foot against the wood and got the BIGGEST splinter ever. It hurt soooo bad and Mitchell thought he could suck it out or something? ya. whatever. It turned out that we had to be 21 to drive it. So, we go back down and Kelsey Bleyl is just returning it and we ask her if we can take it out for a while. So after she asks her dad, he decides that if kelsey goes then we can drive. So it mitchell driving, me holding on to mitchell for dear life, and kelsey in the back praying she stays on. It was basically incredible. We hit major waves and Mitchell almost tipped us a hundred times. Then it was my turn to drive.....not a very smooth ride for Mitch and Kelsey at first but after a while I got the hang of it. We got back alive, and not wet but I got a lot of crap from dad and michelle. They say Mitchell was awfully close to me. haha.
