I Like To Go To The Y...M...C...A... Everybody now!!

Caleb, Ethan's best friend, had a birthday last month.  For his party he decided to do something a little different (all parties here seem to be at either the bowling alley or skating rink because nothing says Happy Birthday like "disinfected" yet still smelly foot ware).  They reserved the climbing wall and party room at our YMCA and it was a ton of fun.

Ethan didn't want to do the big wall, but he did try out the smaller "cave" that they could free climb.

Livi got to go to so she could hang out with her two favorite guys!

Eric, helping McKay dunk, and I helped with the little ones in return for yummy pizza and cupcakes. Best deal ever!

(It DID worry me a little that the "trained" worker, who wouldn't let any parents near the ropes, was barely taller than my 7 year older.  Maybe he is a hobbit.  A well trained, fully certified and insured climbing instructor hobbit that just happens to look like a 12 year old)  Ella had to show up a little late because of dance, but my fearless girl didn't let me down.  Still wearing her dance clothes, she geared up....

...and conquered the wall!

Our big group having way too much fun eating pizza (too many 10 year olds in one room=lots of gas jokes).
