zippin' along

You know when you have one of those great days and you can't stop smiling? We had one of those. We took the kids on a zip line in the Smokey's. The place had six of them actually. We did all the prep work- talked about how it would look scary, but would be fun, showed youtube videos of people on the same zip line, explained that the owner said everyone loved it once they tried it. And this time our hard work paid off (unlike the snow tubing). Our biggest fear, Jared, gave only smiles and never hesitated to go when it was his turn. Claire had a serious look but not one tear. Carter had his nervous excited smile. After the first run we all concluded that it was awesome. Allen and I shared looks of relief and we fully enjoyed the day with our kids. Later that night we still were smiling, because it was one of those days.
