I picked up this little slip n slide from Wal-mart for $5. I knew the boys couldn't actually slide on it, but I knew they'd like the little streams of water that came out of it and the little splash pool at the end of it. I was right, they loved it. I'd like to imagine their thoughts went a little something like this...
"Hey Mama, this thing looks fun. I'm so happy you got it for me."
"Okay Logan, you need to try to catch the streams of water like this."
"Okay Brenden, I'll try, but it looks pretty tricky."
"Keep trying Logan. While you're doing that, I'm going to take all of the balls."
"Logan look, I'm catching it with my mouth now!"
"Hmm... Where shall I spit this out?"
"Well Logan, Mama says its time for lunch and nap now. We can play out here again this afternoon!"
Afternoon....
"Oh Logan, I don't remember the water being this cold this morning!"
"Mama, can you stop taking pictures please"
"Mama look, while Brenden is playing with the streams of water, I'm going to take all of the balls!"
"Hah-ha!! Look Brenden, now I've got the balls! Hah!"
"That's okay Logan, I'm going to catch more water in my mouth."
"Here Mama, catch!"
"What's that Brenden? You want to slide? Okay, I think you are the best, so I'll do anything you say!"
"Here's how it works Logan, you go first, so I can watch, and then I'll be right behind you."
"Really, you want me to go down there? Okay, if you say so..."
"Weeeeeee! Brenden this is FUN! Its not scary at all!"
"Yeah Logan, you're right, this is LOTS of fun! Woo hoo!"
