Cara made me this
Then, she and Lorie surprised me by bringing Natalee and Carter up to the office to eat it with me. So sweet (literally) and thoughtful of them. I seriously have the best friends, because they know I'm horrible at remembering dates, yet they still remember the dates important to me.
Then, around 4:00 I got a phone call from Greg saying that we were going to go to the rock wall in Nashville with some of the college kids from church.
Fiona belaying Cody.
The next images that follow, keep in mind it's been more than 10 years since I've done this. (I'm following only the white markers over that ledge)
To get to that next hold, I had to hang by my arms and hoist myself to move my right foot to that small hold to the right of my right knee. I was feeling very Tom-ish from MI2.
And, here I was wishing I had stuck with Pilates so I would have been elongated to reach. Nevertheless, I made it to the top.Fun times were had by all and sore muscles will follow.

Oh, I'm SO jealous! I have a rock climbing membership I have been unable to use because I've been so busy. Ack. I need to get over there! LOL. Glad you had fun! You look awesome!
