slip ‘n’ slide

We are blessed to have our cousins staying with us for a few days before they board their plane back to Colorado. Yesterday, I grabbed this little slip and slide that was clearanced out at the grocery store and knew it would make for a fun afternoon. We are enjoying mid-80 degrees right now and yesterday was a gorgeous day. So we hooked up a hose…added a few darling little bodies in some sweet summer attire…and had a blast!

Photobucket
priceless expression…

Ella going for a little knee action (which is probably the safest route…I totally just dove in at the end…jeans and all. It was actually very very fun minus the water shooting up my nose! I felt 5 again…instant youth!)
Photobucket
then we went ladybug hunting…and found this sweet little lady…
Photobucket
she was a favorite among the gals…
Photobucket
Connor stood close by in case she got dangerous…he was sure ladybugs could bite…
Photobucket
then the magical sound of summer…the ice cream man rolling down the street…the kids all got these cute push-up pops (those bring back memories) and the stick doubled as a whistle…kinda fun..if you like high-pitch glass shattering noises…nah, the kids enjoyed them…

10 bucks later (thanks Lolly)
Photobucket
we were splendidly sticky…
Photobucket
full of yummy and colorful sweets…
Photobucket
and cool as can be…

love you guys!

wow, looks like tons of fun! I love when it’s warm and the suits come out (for the kids of course). Mia’s pics are the cutest, she’s a doll.

Sounds soooo fun! I want a slip’n'slide. Those things are the best when you weigh 5 lbs and can slide right across! The last time I tried one I think I was 14 and I didn’t slide…:(

Love all the pics Tonay…and love the border!

Love the sticky, gooey, colorful shots of ice cream dripping down those sweet faces. Too bad you don’t have a puppy to lick them clean.
Love you & hello to all.
Hugs & Kisses,
Sharon:)

What a fun day. Mia’s little bum in that last group shot – and her coy little smile, like she knows she is stealing the show – is just too much! Love it!

These photos just burst with color! The cousins will enjoy looking back at the joyful memories they created together.
Love, Mom
