Story Time Sunday | We almost lost our pants!
For this
weeks Story Time Sunday I am going to talk about something embarrassing - getting pantsed!
Devin and I didn't go on our first vacation together until we were together for almost a year.
We went with his family to Glendale Lake in July 2009. There was a basketball court there, we did some shopping, and we spent some time at the lake.
One of my biggest memories from this trip was when I ran into a glass sliding door...what a way to win over the family, right? That's just me though, they know now not to expect anything less haha!
I know in this photo we look all cool, calm, and collected like we're having a great time but that wasn't the case the whole time.
Neither one of us had ever gone tubing before so it was a really exciting for us to do especially because we were experiencing it together. I remember it being hard to hold on, especially when we were going over waves. We were trying really hard not to push each other off of the tube.
What happened was that we were focusing so much on not losing our grip to fall into the water that we weren't really paying attention to much else. We suddenly realized that while we were going at a high rate of speed, our pants were making their way off.
Talk about an embarrassing thought running through your head and not having very much time to even think. It basically came down to making a split decision, either keep holding on to the rope, not fall off into the water, but lose our swim suit bottoms in the process OR let go of the rope, fall off the tub, but keep our bottoms on.
Our slit second choice? We chose to let go and keep our pants.
Wouldn't that have been interesting had we chosen the other route!
We had such a good time though, it's definitely something neither one of us will forget and we've been dying to do it again ever since. Well, the tubing part at least, not losing our pants.
