Rock Climbing at The Solid Rock!


Richard and I recently went on a double date with a couple of friends of ours, Cassie and Greg (Hi Cassie). We decided on dinner and indoor rock climbing. It was a ton of fun, here are some pictures of the evening...enjoy!






Don't I look so helpful showing Cassie "the ropes" ( I really wasn't doing the instructing, Richard was). She caught on very quick and was soon scaling the wall...








On both of our first climbs Cassie and I didn't make it very high, it takes some getting used to, especially if you are like me and you barely trust anyone to belay (sorry Greg). We got the hang of things and pretty soon we were both making our way to the roof!!







Cassie found herself her very own cave to take a break in!





We even got brave enough to try flipping ourselves over, here is Cassie, this was so much fun!





And here I am, kinda-sorta trying to trust that I wont break my head open if I put my hands down!!



Greg just cracks me up!!

Richard flipped over faster than any of us, he is a natural. He has been rock climbing for a very long time and has grown accustom to trusting in the equipment.





I had so much fun climbing around and being silly and cant wait until I can do it again.

First Grade!!

Today was Trenton's first day of First Grade! I was so excited for him. He was a little nervous but that didn't last long. Here he is in the car on the way. Brelynn was almost as excited as Trenton, they were so cute waiting outside the classroom until the teacher let us in!!!

Trenton quickly found his seat and was ready to get to work!! I cant believe he is in 1st grade already.
I will do my best to keep undating the blog through the school year with all the activities and events.
Happy First Day!
