Team Texas wins!

We are back from the National Rock Climbing Championships in Sandy, Utah (beautiful!!) What a blessed weekend we had! We were able to spend major quality time with Bethany, we are so proud of her! Out of the 34 girls in the U.S. who qualified for Nationals, she placed 4th in difficulty and 3rd in speed climbing. She also made the U.S. Team!! Her age group is too young to compete at World's, but she still earned the honor and "the jacket", which is cool enough for her! :-) Thank you to everyone who has prayed for Bethany!

Here is the YouTube link to videos of Bethany's climbs:
