Weekend Away in Alborada

We had a great time away for the weekend with Bobbi and Grandpa John. We all stayed in Ivins, UT, only 45 minutes from home but it was a much needed get-a-way with Mom and Dad and the kids. We swam, rode bikes, hunted for endangered turtles and had fun playing Uno and just being together.
Cairo, Jack and Charlie went out early one morning with Bobbi and Me and they decided to rock climb. All 3 of them conquered fears and got really high up the rock wall. The fears came when they didn't know quite how they would get down. It was a great exercise physically as well as problem solving. It required them to take deep breaths, relax and pick their foot holds and hand holds carefully. They all got down safely and felt the joy of overcoming fear and achieving a goal.
