Slippery When Wet

Our play group had one of the best dates EVER recently at the Allreds. There was a baby pool and a neat slip-n-slide and the kids all had a fantastic time. Even Daisy enjoyed it!

It's so cool when your kids are this happy! And it didn't even cost anything. Of course, we haven't seen the Allreds' water bill for July yet....










Cameryn was the only person there young enough to want to slip and slide and old enough to have the coordination to purposely do so--and do it very well! (Too bad it isn't an Olympic sport, huh Catherine?) She kept showing the little ones how it should be done.

Katy gave it her best shot, anyway.

Jenny and Bradie bided their time on dry land until the older kids had released some of their excess energy.

Katy and Vincent chowed down on some yummy snacks while Dylan cruised on the deck. Look, Ma, one hand!










Jenny and Bradie, our junior mermaids, took advantage of the big kids' absence.


After all of this slipping and sliding and splashing, Bradie was so hungry that she ate soggy cheese crackers and Katy and Maggie were happily drinking pool water (not unlike Daisy Girl only moments before), so we went in for a yummy lunch.










Thanks for a wet and wild good time, Maryann!
