Ethan experienced a terrifying ordeal last night - he made a goal to reach the top of the 33' wall, but had never decended from anything higher than 12'. After reaching the top, he spent 10 painfully-long minutes frozen in fear. Glen and I felt sick, knowing we just couldn't go up there and bring him down to safety. He showed us his courage by not only coming down on his own, but going back up once more.
(On his ascent: The black line by his feet is the 12' mark and he's already looking down nervously!)
Matthew monkeying around, and trying to prove to Ethan that you won't drop to your death in decent by kicking off the wall as wildly as possible. Doesn't he look like Peter Pan?

It's great that the boys can do their climbing on the wall, instead at home somewhere to give you the big heart attack.. It looks like they had a great time... Good for them!!!!
