Every so often, the ice build up is just too much and we have to melt it away.

This is a little laptop that we have for watching movies. The laptop can't do much more then just play movies.

Rebekah just turned 8, and we had her birthday party at a local rock climbing gym. We had a blast!

Here she is, suited up for climbing.

Bekah at the top of the wall--she was like a little spider!

Rachel, who was very bummed that she didn't get to join in.

Elijah takes a shot at one of the walls & is belayed by Mike.

Yay! He made it to the top!

Some of the other party-goers: Mrs Agarwal & Mrs Brooks, belaying kids; Taryn, down from a climb; in the background: Evan, Alyssa, Lexie, Joanna (who didn't climb), and Leslie, who is getting ready to belay Evan

Bekah makes it to the top!

Looking down at some of our group from the party deck

Leslie makes it to the top too!

The birthday girl

Um, does Mama have something stuck in her teeth? :)

YUMMY BIRTHDAY CAKE!

Happy birthday, Rebekah! We love you!

Rebekah asked us to hide her birthday gifts as part of a scavenger hunt -- so we did.
