Mormon night at the Nationals (Sept. 21, 2007)

We had a great time at the Nationals game (v. Philly) last Friday night. We lost the game, but we had a good time eating pizza and cheering for the home team. Here are some of the picture highlights.



Rock climbing at Carderock (Aug. 4, 2007)

We had a great morning on the rock at Carderock. We set up a fun climb next to the Potomac River, Jeremy showed us the ropes, Suzanne demonstrated how the pros do it, then everybody got a few great climbs in.

This was the first time for Tennyson, Issac, and Maurice to rock climb in the great outdoors. OK, Tennyson didn't do much climbing, but he loved hanging out with the guys.

Isaac showed off the athleticism he learned as a young man in Ghana, while Jeremy held steady on belay.
And Maurice, who originally doubted his chances of making it to the top, ended up discovering a hidden talent. Call it beginners luck, or call it natural instict - Maurice displayed an uncanny ability to defy gravity.
