Having Fun!

Soooo, my mom and neices are out from California. So far, we're having a blast!

Yesterday (after church in the A.M. - more about that at a later date) we went to an indoor rock climbing place.

It's a really cool converted grain silo in Rochester (just outside of Springfield. Almost all the kids made it to the top of the 65ft. wall. Me and Beth learned how to "Balay" - a fancy term for "Holding the ropes while the others climb."


Then we went to a movie (the Simpsons). The movie was exactly what you'd expect - it was the Simpsons!

We then came home, ate pizza and played poker/watched movies etc...
----------------------------
This morning Allison (eldest neice) and Darian (eldest son) went to a college day thingie at Illinois College and the other two neices went fishing with me and Austin.

We caught a few (mostly little ones), and I freed the two smallish-sized catfish I caught.









Austin lost his flip-flops (can't imagine how!)

More to come.
