Check that off the bucket list

Friday I got to go help out on a YW/YM camping and repelling trip. It was really a lot of fun. I have never repelled before so I had to do it. I was really scared but I knew I would regret not doing it. So here is the proof.

This was the cliff we repelled off of. It was about 160 feet tall and there was a river right below it.

That's me clinging to the rope for dear life.

The hardest part was just getting over the edge of the cliff, then it was smooth sailing.

Fun times!

Labor Day Weekend

Last weekend we took a mini vacation to Phoenix and stayed at the beautiful Arizona Grand Resort. Grant had a slumber party at grandma's house (thanks again) and Sean and I enjoyed the water park that is only open to resort guests. It was a blast. The slides, the lazy river, the water basketball, and the wave pool. It was a great break from life. Of course we don't have a single picture of us on our "vacation" because we were too busy swimming which is not a good environment for a camera.



And other things we've been up to lately...


eating lots of fresh corn on the cob and loving it

playing dress up with other people's glasses

and swinging on our very fun new swing that daddy installed into the patio roof for Grant
