Friday morning Sue, Sara, Lia and I took the boys to Hole-in-the-Rock in Papago Park. It's a huge park and the hike up to the hole was a nice short hike - although Levi didn't make it on his own power.
Once we all got up to the actual hole we had great views of the city and surrounding area - great except for the sand dust that fuzzed up the view. Noah was adventurous enough to go out with Sara for extra rock climbing. If you look at the picture above, find the hole, then look to the left - they climbed over to the lump of rocks sticking out to the left (or jutting out into the blue sky background). Anyways, it was a long ways for his legs to take him and he was pretty proud of himself in the end.
Levi, on the other hand, climbed around on the ledges and crevices that surrounded the hole. At one point, he freaked out and started crying because he thought he was going to slide off a ledge. He was completely safe the entire time but from his perspective he was facing certain death. Thankfully, I was able to slip my shoes off (since I was wearing flip-flops and had no traction) and make a heroic save just before disaster struck. Ha! That kid is just about as wimpy as me!
