May-June Re-cap

Right after Craig left for the summer (4 1/2 months in Kansas) Gaby pinched a nerve in her arm and passed out, hitting her eyelid on a cabinet doorknob. I can't believe how close she came to serious damage.

This picture was taken for Daddy for Father's Day.
Over Memorial Day week-end the girls and I went to Switzerland with Morgan's Girl Scout troop. We stayed at 'Our Chalet' near Interlaken. This was the view from the Chalet.

The first day the girls went on a long hike to Engstligen waterfalls-the second largest waterfall in Switzerland. I stayed behind with the 3 small girls (Mia included)


The second hike, I got to go too. We hiked up to a little falls and glacier!



The girls found this in the stream bed-at first they thought it was a relic from WWII. We decided it was a charge used to jump-start an avalance.


The second day we were there We went on a ropes course. Mia of course was too small but they let her gear up and then use the teaching/practice/low course. She, of course, thought this was pretty fun!
walking on the rope bridge

going down the mini-zipline.

These 2 videos are also from the ropes course. The one on the top is Gaby rapelling off a bridge. She was the first kid down. (pretty amazing since I didn't think she would go down at all!) The video on the bottom is Morgan on the high zipline. (for some reason I only caught about a 4th of the ride!)
