Swinging Sisters

As if this wasn’t dramatic enough, Elisabeth had to go and blab to inspire Kat about the joys of trapezing!  So now instead of just one daughter giving me a heart attack, I have two

(Plus a son across the world in Prague and another son seriously considering a possible internship in Australia!  I’ll tell ya -- it was easier on the blood pressure when “adventure” for these four siblings consisted of playing laser tag in the forest!)

So here’s how Kat and Elisabeth spent this afternoon (be still my pounding heart!):

I need a bubble bath and a glass of wine.  (Now that’s my idea of adventure!)

  1. I miss the years when they were all under our roof every night and riding bikes was the scariest thing they did.

  2. It's good to see those safety lines attached to the girls! And Margaret, you'd better not show these pics to your younger gymnast daughter or she just might have to try this out! (Maybe better than rock climbing, though...)

  3. I would have SO loved to have done this when *I* was young, but now that I have my own children I've become a fraidy-cat. The thought of my OWN children doing it definitely freaks me out.

    That being said, every time I see pictures of your girls, I'm struck by their beauty.

  5. Oh my...this makes me think that Kaitie's rock climbing hobby is tame!

    To echo Heidi, I'm always struck by how beautiful your girls are.
