National Whitewater Center

I took off several days while the girls were on Spring Break and we took day trips here and there.  One of the best places we went was the National Whitewater Center.  Abigail wasn't old enough to do the rafting and kayaking and I wasn't healed up well enough to do anything really, so the girls purchased a climbing pass to do all of the other things available.  Abigail got scared and then overcame her fears, then Emily got scared and the adrenaline got her through her fears.  It was an absolutely amazing experience to be able to watch them overcome "obstacles"  mentally and physically.  They truly are amazing little machines!  Emily did so much that the day after we went she was sore and could barely move!  HaHa!  Here are a few pictures and videos of some of the highlights.  Brandon was terrified by just watching the short clips of "the danger that I put my children in!"  He is scared of heights and I am going to try to make it to where the kids don't grow up to be just like him!

Easter 2011

We didn't venture away from home all day Sunday.  We messed around outside and the kids came up with an advanced game for hiding Easter eggs.  We also did this little nest craft and put some of our dyed eggs in them.  Aren't they cute!
