Stone Mountain

My Dad & StepMom are in town for the 4th of July weekend. We have stayed very busy and had a great time! On Thursday we headed to Stone Mountain. We all had a great time exploring their new Sky Hike. It is a really cool Ropes Course structure. There is a kid sized one and an adult sized one. William was so brave! He loved the kids course. He even did the zip line at the end. Meme, Pa-Paw and Michael enjoyed it too!


Maren enjoyed cheering on her brother!

Everyone got in on the action!


Go Meme!

(This was before she bit the dust on the zip line! She's lucky we didn't get it on film!)

William getting ready for the zip line. I didn't get a picture because Maren's stroller was about to roll away-- with her in it.

Michael and I did the bigger course. I did a Ropes course in college with a leadership group and loved it. I have been so excited to try this one with Michael. We thought we would just skip the long lines on the lower course and go right up to the 3rd level (36 feet up). After a knee shaking walk on the first leg of the 3rd level we decided to try level 2 first. You are completely locked in and it is impossible to fall but it didn't stop the nerves! For those of you who don't know, Michael is afraid of heights. He did so good and was so brave to do this with me. He always amazes with how far he pushes himself. He's such a trooper!

The blind leading the blind.

William was intrigued by these 2 guys singing. He kept asking, "why do they talk so funny?"
