Rock Climbing

On Friday night AJ spent the night at a friend's house so Michael had his grandparents all to himself.  I asked him what he wanted to do and he decided he wanted to go rock climbing.  Then I asked if he would like some friends to come along.  Only one of them decided to come with us, so off we went to the BX for some rock climbing.

 

Michael and Gracie climbing on the free wall with a mat underneath them.  Look out Spiderman and Spiderwoman.

 

Michael off and climbing before I even get the rope on him.  :-)  They are allowed to climb to the white line without a rope, but no farther.

 

Dad checking out Gracie's harness to make sure it will hold her!

 

Michael up on the wall - he was a little disappointed because they took the bell down but still had a blast!!!

 

Gracie's turn - she did so awesome!!! 

 

Now on to the big wall - you can tell by my height and Dad's at how tall the wall is - you can barely see Michael, but he is at the top of the wall.

 

And Gracie did not disappoint - she made it to the top also!!!  We had to take a break half way through because I was getting tired.  So we headed to the food court to get some food and then back for more climbing!!  It was a lot of fun!!!  Michael was very proud to show Grandma and Grandpa how well he could climb.  He is still a little monkey!!!
