Climbing: Fam, Friends, Kids


When I was young, my friends and I had ways of sealing our bond of friendship.  We would exchange friendship rings, notes, and heart lockets pledging our undying loyalty to one another.  A few of us became blood sisters -- literally.  My sees'tahs would make a small cut on their finger and then we'd mingle our blood to signify the unbreakable bond between us as “blood sisters.”

Of course these days my friends and I don't prick our fingers to seal our bond - we profess our friendship in other ways like in . . . 

Pads. 

Rock.

Kids.

Here's what went down this weekend.  Two days of climbing at Governor Dodge and a clothing swap at Molly's (dangit, meant to get a picture of the climbing group).  A first time babysitting job for Misa and Jada.
