Hellgate Jetboat Dinner Trip

Anastasia and Mark came down to visit for the weekend and we went on the Hellgate Jetboat Dinner Trip! It was so much fun! It was the first date Paul and I had been on in a while, so it was doubly fun for us!
Here is the whole group waiting for take-off. (L -R: Anastasia, Brooke, Me, Paul)

ANd, from the other angle... (L-R: Mark, Anastasia, Brooke, Me)

The picture below is a sample of the beautiful wildlife we saw along the way. This is a Blue Heron, in mid-takeoff!

Anastasia and Mark. (Anastasia is famous again, by the way. She was recently featured in an article that links President Obama to German roots: http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jLX83k2HSGger0NVsnM-e0WI5qQAD98JPOFO0 )

The Siblings: Anastasia, Paul, and Brooke (below)
On a side note, people are always asking Brooke and I if we are sisters, I guess we look a lot alike or something? On a funnier note, when Paul and I first started dating as Juniors in High School, I was asked by multiple people at school, "Isn't he your cousin?"

These pictures were taken at the beautiful lodge-style restaurant, Where we were seated outside with a picturesque view of the river. I didn't do a very good job documenting our trip, other then these photos! *GASP* yes, no photos of our delicious food, or a full shot of our boat....sorry. :)
The driver of our boat did quite a few spins on the down river and as we were sitting in the second row from the front, we got quite soaked! It was really fun! Here is a link to the website for a full shot of what our boat looked like: http://www.hellgate.com

Molly did some trade with Ambience Photography for a photo shoot. She very kindly let Alex in on the deal. :) They turned out awesome! Thanks Aunt Molly!
