Seth!

Another Spring Break treat!  We got to spend the afternoon with Seth!  As an added bonus, Mrs. K stayed to hang out with Mommy too. We sure do love this family.

Climb Time!

It's Spring Break week and you know we rowdy boys tend to get a little antsy. Luckily, Levi and I have Moms who are game for an adventure.  They took all of us and Sissy to Climb Time!

You might be thinking "oooh, Josiah is a little young for that isn't he?"

If you are, you're W R O N G!  He was the first person to raise his hand to try. This kid is fearless.

and strong too!  He's a great climber.

First time on the wall and he's up past the red line.

You might have also thought "are little princesses strong enough and brave enough to climb?" The answer is YES!  Sissy had to be pulled off the wall when it was time to leave.

And of course, we older boys were all over that place like the monkeys we are :)

Levi was a pro.  He climbed to the tip top at least 3 times!

Yup. I mean the very tip top. Waaaaaaay up there!

Me too! This was my second time climbing so I had no trouble getting right back up there.

and the Moms went too.

We had SO much fun.



We gave Mrs. Werner a new nickname - "Spidermom!"

She also had no trouble whatsoever making it to the tip top of more than a few walls.

We are so lucky to have great friends like the Werners who like so many of the same things we do.

Another action shot of my buddy Levi.



And another one of me way up high.

Levi at the bar.

And on the way down.  Thank you Mom and Mrs. Werner for spending most of the afternoon working the ropes to get us up and down safely.

Micah scaled a few walls too!

Spidermom once again!

Look at her go!

Micah and Levi were proud of their Mom. On the way home, our Moms told us to make sure we married tomboys who liked doing this kind of stuff. They also told us to make sure our future wives like old people :)

Here's my mom sneaking in a few last minute climbs before lunch.

What an awesome afternoon.  Thanks again Mom and Mrs. Werner for a super fun day!

Bowling Bodnars and Sharp Shooting Vandys



Next, we took the Bodnars bowling - American style! I showed them all how it's done.

No seriously. This is serious stuff. I had the high score!

Next up, an international battle on the ice!

We played hard!

and Surprise, surprise, I wound up cuddling with Aunty Charlotte :)

Then it was off to play Laser Tag.  Meet Team Blue!

This was also serious. I'm a competitor through and through.

Uncle Noodle looked like a crazed man. We had no choice but to hunt him down.

No problem. Team Vandy was up to the task!

The whole crew.

We had SO much fun.

It was high pressure, high speed and HIGH fun!

There was danger lurking around every corner.

It was a "hunt or be hunted" kind of deal.

Did we mention there was a crazy dude in there with us??





Team Blue had a sniper too! What a great time we had.

Wrap It Up

All of a sudden I was to tired to take one more step. Literally, I sat down and refused to move. Luckily I was able to charm my way up onto Aunty Charlotte's shoulders!

She soon found out that I'm 50% lead iron and passed me off to Uncle Noodle.

We had a great view of these two buddies.







Sights

When we sight see, we like to get riiiiight in there. That is until Mom saw us in here and freaked out because she was sure there were used needles, drugs and filth in here. We got out quickly.  When Mom isn't happy.... you know.

We were okay to touch this one though. Mom tried and tried, but this was the best formal "cousins photo" she could get.

B was more than happy to pose a little later on. He said "hellllooooo  ladies" to the runners who passed by.

When that didn't work, he resorted to full out pursuit. That will only be acceptable until you're 5 bro.
