Last Saturday, Harrison turned 7 and he had a rock climbing birthday party. I wasn't sure what Sage would think about it, but in typical Sage fashion, she was very timid at first. Then we couldn't get her to stop. She was really good, too. I was pleasantly surprised at how much she liked it because it was something very different for her that we don't have easy access to locally. Here's a few pictures from the party.
This was the first time she tried it at all. You can tell, too, by the look on her face. For some reason, on this side, the kids didn't have to wear a harness. Even though there was no difference in the height that they could get or the depth of the potential fall. They could actually walk on top of the wall on this side, too. I later realized that this man in this picture, who I was asking to help Sage, was not a worker but a dad of one of the kids at the party. The child he was helping before Sage was HIS son. Oops! He was so helpful regardless.
Here she is having FUN, and you can tell. She liked climbing with the harness the best.

Sage and Isacah
And of course, your's truly had to try. I realized why Sage had that initial look of fear without the harness. I thought I was just going to climb up and get on top of the wall. Um, not. It was pretty intimidating, and I knew if I got up there, I'd have to ask the dad of the child to come and get me.
Here's a video of Sage climbing.
After the party, we took Chrissie's girls with us to 5 guys, and Sean and Chrissie met up with us. Jaggar was ecstatic to have them with us. The entire time at the party, he kept saying, "Come on, Holland!" Reminded me so much of Harrison and Sage when they were little.
The crew: Harrison, Sage, Isacah, Holland and Jaggar (in stair step and age order). Worked out nicely. :) Aren't they cute?
