Our little Dare Devil

Apparently our little dainty MWC is quite the daredevil. She has always wanted to ride the bigger rides or do the bigger things. The last few weeks have been no different. On Memorial Day we were able to go with some sweet, good friends to a water park. There was a BIG slide that she had to ride alone--without me and RDC. Now at first, she did not want to go when she realized she had to ride alone--until AH went and she saw that it was ok!! But she rode it and rode it and rode it all day long!!!! There was another slide that we had to ride in a double tube with her--but SHE LOVED IT!!! It was a fun time and we hope to go again!!!











The daddies had to do it first!!!




HERE THEY COME!!!!






MWC and her sister/ friend AH!!! (They have decided to be sisters!)









And then last week we were at a community picnic where they have things to do for the kids--space jumps, petting zoo, train rides, etc...Well last week they new thing was a rock climbing wall!! And what does Miss Priss want to do?!?!? When she asked I am more than fine with h
er trying, but I was worried she would not have the upper body strength to do it. So we stood in line and waited, and waited and waited! Finally her turn!!! The workers had to help her up the first couple of pushes and pulls, but then she got the hang of it. And she did pretty good. Until she was finished and ready to come down. WELL--she was not quite heavy enough to come down on her own. She let go and just stayed there!!!! It was a trying few minutes as a parent because then she got scared --and we could not reach her..but her Daddy finally got tired of them trying to figure out how to get her down and came to the rescue and climbed up just a few pulls and was able to reach her and pulled her down. (One more reason for her to call him her HERO!!) She is not quite as quick to climb one anytime soon--maybe next year she will gain a few pounds and can come down on her own!!!














Getting help to get started....












....getting the hang of it!!



And I think her little brother is going to follow in her footsteps. Last weekend while Grandaddy was here, he bought them a slip and slide and he LOVES it just as much as she does. RDC or I have to help him get to the end but he loves it!!!

Summertime is such a good time. They are going to have hours of fun in the water. GDW did not like that wall either.

David is the most wonderful dad I have ever seen! He is not only his daughter's hero....he's my hero, too! Watching him sweep her up into his arms at the wedding reception for a turn on the dance floor (as she was mesmerized by Kay-kay and Grandaddy)just blew me away....I cried!
Being saved from the mountain by her fabulous daddy is EXACTLY what I would have expected to see!Good job, Daddy! YOU ARE WONDERFUL!
Much love from Aunt Barbara
