SLIP SLIDING AROUND

Jenise gave the boys a Slip and Slide for their Birthday's and this was the first day its been warm enough to get it out and use it! Spencer asks me almost every day if its time to get it out so I was glad today we could actually play with it!
Spencer had no fear, he was all ready to go, even before the slide was ready! While we were setting it up he kept reminding me that on the box it says he has to wear swim shorts without a shirt so he NEEDS sun screen! He is so observant!
He played and played for over an hour and made me promise if it was warm tomorrow that he could play again!
Cooper tried it without any concerns but slipped and got really scared! It took him a some time to warm up (so true to Cooper FORM!!!) He walked down it and then he tried scooting down it and then finally he slide down it with a little help from Spencer!
Graham had a great time being outside and listening to all the giggling and commotion while he hung out in the shade!
It was a lot of fun and I am excited to get it out tomorrow!

What are weekends for?

Well this weekend we decided to not spend all our time shopping (even though I did hit up a few yard sales and SCORED!!!)we spent the afternoon and evening hiking around the
Red Hill!

We did our BIG Easter egg hunt up there and the kids had a blast so we thought it would be fun to go spend some more time exploring! I took about a million pictures so I am going to do my best to slim it down! .....We had 5 kids and 3 adults! Lets just say it was a bit of a handful! For the most party we could just let them explore but there were a few times when the "crazy mom" in me showed up and made the kids hold hands!

I got a few super cute pics of each on the kids! Too cute to put in a collage!
We all had a great time outside! I am really looking forward to getting out and going camping and hiking this summer! We are all hoping to get out about every other week! If you want to go give us a buzz!
