Few days with family

My dad, step-mom and several of my siblings were here visiting for the last few days.  We had a great time with them and were sad to see them go today.  Here are some photos of our time together...

Thursday morning - walked to the pool, but it was closed.  The kids played around the pond instead.


Thursday afternoon - the kids did some painting.


Thursday evening - went rock climbing with Mary.


She did an excellent job on her first time doing outdoor climbing!


Friday - walked around Manitou and spent some time at the penny arcade.








Friday evening - went rock climbing with Mary and Amanda.




Friday night - S'MORES!




Saturday morning - hiking with Mary.

Indoor rock climbing

Last night we went with a neighbor to do some indoor rock climbing.  I haven't been in SO long.

LittleBigMan went with us and had fun running around and playing in this swing...


He also tried to do a little rock climbing...


We had a good time and I can't wait until the LittleBigMan can do some real climbing, too.

Climb on!

On Thursday, we got a chance to do a little rock climbing at Red Rock Canyon Open Space. We've climbed there once before, but I didn't have the camera that day.

We arrived a bit late so we both only climbed once each, but it was still fun!

Playing in the dirt - I swear if I'd let him he'd each rocks, dirt, and sticks. I guess he's all boy.
