Slipping-Slide

Brig received a slip-n-slide from Grandma Bonnie for his birthday.  The children are having a blast with it.  This summer has been unusually warm.  Last year wasn't quite so nice.  I remember filling their little pool with warm water from the house the entire season.  This year we're being spoiled with sunny weather.

Allen got the hang of sliding right away.  It took Brig a while longer...

My Brig, in true form.  :)

Allen is growing up too quickly.  It's been a challenge to keep his dresser stocked with clothes that fit him.

The "slipping-slide" audience.  Once again, the cute pronunciation is compliments of Brig.

We love our home and recognize what a blessing it is to live here.  We are especially grateful for a large, private yard for our children to play in.  Their summer has been full of catching bugs, digging holes, riding bikes, picking berries, making forts, and many other wonderful adventures in nature.
