Hello😃
This past Wednesday I went back to Alt. Rock. The week before I wanted to finish a level two problem but was too tired to do it. So when we went this week, that was the first problem I went to. It was a tough challenge but I did it! I've always wanted to do a problem that goes upside down/on an angle. I am so happy with myself and want to try another tricky one. I put a video of me doing the level 2 pink problem underneath.


Also, instead of just my brother and I climbing, my mom tried it with us. She was a bit nervous to climb that high but she did it. She had a very fun time. Darcy was enjoying himself too. He beat some of his height records and was super happy with his accomplishments.

My mom is on the left, Darcy is in the middle and I'm on the right.

These three mini problems were Darcy's favorite. The yellow one he's on, the blue one to his left and the red one to his right. He especially liked the blue one because of the colour.😃

We had a super fun time and we can't wait to go back to Alt. Rock!!!!

Bye, until next time! #GirlsRock😉

Rock Climbing!!!!   A few Wednesdays ago I went to a new rock climbing place called Alt. Rock  in Barrie, Ontario, for the first time. It is a very cool and fun place! I used to go to Georgian College to rock climb but we stopped because there weren't a lot of problems and they didn't change them that often. At Georgian College there were only 14 problems and at the Alt. Rock there are easily over 20!   So far I've done pretty much all the easy problems and I'm working on some of the level 1. There is a black problem that is a level 4 that goes upside down. I've been trying to do it for fun😂 but have not succeeded. It's pretty tricky! Like, I have no idea how some people do it! What I love about Alt. Rock is that they give you the shoes and the harnesses you need. Also there are plenty of problems to solve and they change them regularly. I love rock climbing because it strengthens your arms and legs (and probably other muscles). I love to...

Sewing!!! About a week or two ago I got a Singer sewing machine. I bought it used from someone, but it works beautifully. I have used it pretty much every day since I got it. I love to sew and create new things. So far (sew far) I've made 3 little pillows and about 7 cute little coasters. I also tried to make a book mark that holds a pencil.  This is the coaster idea I got from Angie's Art Studio . They are so cute and really easy to make. I made them out of my sister's old shirt and a pair of my little brother's old jeans. This week's project for me is going to be making a shirt for my little brother. I found a great website,  Made Everyday , that has written instructions and a tutorial on how to make a little shirt. Also there is a free print off pattern that is size 4t-5t. It seems easy to do, let's just hope I can follow it and do a good job. If not, I can always try again. I will post my finished project.  Sewing is now one of my favouri...

Welcome to Making Shades of Green.  My name is Bronte Vankesteren and I'm 14 years old. I live in Innisfil, Ontario, Canada with my family of six.  I love to travel to different places.   When I was 12 years old I went on a six-month exchange through Exchange Families International to France. I am now fluent in French as well as English and I am learning Dutch.  I also love to spend time outdoors, going camping with friends and family and going for hikes. My current new hobbies are rock climbing and sewing.  This blog is about me trying new things, exploring new adventures and learning new skills.  The reason I chose the name " Making Shades of Green" is because green is my favourite colour and I love to be outside. Also, being green can mean being new at things. There are many different shades of green and many new things to try.  And I'm green at blogging...
