While today (Cole's birthday "pool" party) was barely in the 60's and we had to serve cofee to keep the adults warm... Memorial day weekend was glorious (yes I understand I am WAY far behind) and another joy of summer obviously is the slip 'n slide. For some reason they are disposable at our house. Last year we had a really cool double one, not reading the weight limit Rob went down and promptly busted it. This year we had got a new double one, which the boys decided to continue playing on after the water had been turned off (after these photos), and again.. busted. Now we have a couple new birthday slip 'n slides to try out.. very exciting. We'll try our hardest to keep them in good shape.
Above the boys contemplate how best to get down to the bottom without getting wet by the freezing cold well water!
And he's off!
Score! For this particular slip 'n slide you have to race to place your flag on the pole.. too bad it is now in the trash!
Cole still contemplating...
Cora stays clear of any cold water.. smart girl!
New technique..
Without thinking I super shocked the pool at the beginning of the weekend.. so much that the chlorine level was a bit high to swim.. I am sure they would have been fine, but just in case they boated instead. They enjoyed playing pirates, although Caden kept asking is it ready yet?!
I can't wait until the kids get older so we can do canoe camp trips down the Saco River.. the memories I have from when I was a kid are some good ones!!

Those hot days seem light years away! Crazy. Love the slip and slide pics- you have the perfect hill/backyard for it. How many years until you think the boys try it out on the big hill in front?! :)
