Youth Appreciation Day!

We started our day at the climbing wall. Jacob climbs like a little monkey. He made it all the way up 3 walls and about 1/2 way up a forth.


As you can see, Jacob likes to climb barefoot. I think he uses his toes like fingers for grip.


Lilly climbed faster and higher than last year. Last year, she would go about 6-8 feet from the floor. This year she went about 20 feet up.














Later on in the day, we hit the pool. Jacob and Lilly were anxious to show us the new skills they learned while visiting Grandma and Grandpa's.








We also visited the kiddie carnival, the bounce houses, free hot dogs, the batting cages and golf chipping, and the free movie. The kids really enjoyed "Rio."













The last place we visited was the gymnastics and karate gym. Lilly had a blast getting a little lesson on the bars. She also enjoyed tumbling on the mats.








Jacob wanted to take the challenge of breaking boards. After a few attempts and some instruction, he was able to snap a board.


At the end of the day, the kids were still going strong, but I was wiped out.
