Climbing Protege

For a Young Womens activity we took the girls rock climbing up American Fork Canyon. Scott always said we needed two kids so there could always be two climbers and two belayers. Is that twisted motivation for having children? Mercedes did pretty well; Scott kept encouraging her to freeclimb and at 10 feet I said enough.


I miss the days of constant adventure vacations. We're in the "Disneyland" phase right (I do love Disneyland too). But it'll be fun when we can take the girls on climbing, biking, kayaking etc. etc. vacations. But I am finding that having children is motivation to discover those things in life that we probably wouldn't on our own.

Go Mercedes!! That is so cute. I wish I could have gone that night. I haven't been rock climbing for probably 10 years or more!!! I'd probably be too scared now.

Go Mercedes!! That was so fun - thanks SO much for doing it all for us. I think I had more fun than the girls, haha!
