Jacob looks good in a wetsuit

This past weekend Jacob planned to compete in a 1.7 mile swim in a lake up in Sandpoint, Idaho. Instead of making the very long drive, he decided to take one of his flight buddies with him and fly up, cutting the travel time in half and giving him an excuse to get in a plane, since he loves it so much. They made it halfway, stopped to refuel and once they got in the air again they realized the flaps on their plane were frozen, which I guess isn't a huge deal but is not a good idea if one is flying mountainous terrain with which they are unfamiliar.

I'd like to interject here that I am so incredibly grateful Jacob's careful about this stuff, it makes me feel much better to know he's as safe as he can be.

So they landed in Boise and called the director of aviation at UVU to see what they should do. At this point, it was 9:00pm and Sandpoint was still 3 hours away. Finally it was decided that they shouldn't continue their flight and would need to stay in Boise and fly back to Provo the next day. Unfortunately, this meant that despite all the training and preparation he did (including buying a new wetsuit), there would be no swimming competition for Jacob. Bummer, right? Fortunately, my husband has a way of making the best of things, and instead he put on his wetsuit and swam in the pool at the hotel. Cute, right? Yeah, I sure do like him.

Anyway, here are some pics...doesn't he look good in the wetsuit? I think he's hot.
