Family Fun with the Slip and Slide












Yeah, Memorial Day (or second May Bank Holiday for the Brits)!!! It was super hot and we wanted to beat the heat. While scrummaging around in the garage looking for our TV stuff we found the slip and slide Danny and Min gave us and we got that thing going.

Harry wasn't too crazy about it at first but finally warmed up to it and blast.














Addison just liked running to the end and jumping over the little bump on the end. She didn't get very adventurous.













But Kevin gave it a go to show the kids how things really need to be done on it. Well, for Daddy the slip and slide was about 50 feet too short.













I even gave it a go and agreed that we could really ramp this thing up for an adult version by about tripling the length. Both Kevin and I had to about roll over the end blow up thing or we were going to rip it off, but we had so much fun.












We also broke out the ol' hippo sandbox again and converted it into a mini paddling pool for the kiddos in order to give the hose pipe a bit of a rest and the yard a bit of repreave from the soaking we were giving it from the slip and slide.
