While our days are mainly filled with vineyard work for now, we do have some playtime! The following shows a glimpse of the lightheartedness of our boys. They have a healthy (I hope!) competitive spirit amongst them. I must admit though, sometimes they are a bit too daring for my mother's heart.
In our backyard, John hung a rope swing that is 35 - 40 feet high from a pecan tree branch. Swinging is one thing but they decided to climb all the way to the top. Having been called outside to watch the performance, I had to laugh as they each had to outdo their younger brother.
Playtime for the Boys = Rope Climbing
Starting with the youngest son, a simple halfway up the rope climb was sufficient.
Then, all the way to the top for the next oldest.
Wait, I can climb without using my legs!
Finally, how about an upside down climb - all the way to the top!
These fellas are definitely go getters! They sure don't want to be out done by any of their brothers. Thankfully, we haven't had any broken bones or accidents from rope climbing.
Swing Set Fun
And, not to be left out, our youngest daughter ... well, she was content to just swing.
That is a glimpse of the playtime around here. What do y'all do for fun?

I have to say that each was impressive in their own way, but to climb upside down really blows me away. I love your mini bio about yourself and family. May God bless you as you seek to serve Him in your own way. - Pat
