Best birthday gift EVER!

I pride myself in being very thoughtful and creative when it comes to giving gifts, but I think I may have out did myself this time! :) Ryan's 28th birthday is this Tuesday. For sometime I have been trying to come up with something awesome to give him, but he isn't helpful in the gift department. Whenever I asked him what he would like for his birthday he would tell me socks. Who wants socks for a birthday gift???
Ryan and I have both wanted to go sky diving for some time. It is something that is always talks about, but never scheduled. So, I scheduled him to go sky diving for his birthday. I really wanted it to be a complete surprise, but I had to tell him about 2 weeks a head of time because I needed to make sure we didn't have anything going already planned.


Baby Skydiver! Ryan had to be at Sky Dive Kansas at noon, but didn't jump until 3. Luckily the skydive location was in Osage so Kellyn and I hung out with the parents.



Ryan and Kellyn before he jumped. I figured I should get a picture in case he didn't survive! :)



The little piddly plane. After Ryan jumped they PUSHED the plane into the hanger.




Ryan falling from 10,000 feet.





Successful landing.




Ryan was full of excitement and adrenalin after his jump





I'm sure Ryan was talking about how awesome his jump was






All in all I believe it was a successful birthday gift!
