Yesterday my daughter and I went over to my sisters for our first summery day. The kids went on the slip and slide while my sis and I tanned. It went about the same as any other year, we would try and talk and visit, but it would constantly get interupted with "so-and-so won't give me a turn"........"so-and-so's not following the rules"........."so-and-so's not sharing" Ahhhh, the joys of this season of small children. My sister has a 4 month old, so we took her out and brain stormed ideas to keep her out of the sun. My sister went and got a big umbrella, and set it over her. This worked well, but there was a bit of a wind that kept blowing the umbrella over. So my sister went and got 4 belts tied together, I tied one end to the umbrella, and she took the other end and tied it on her bike. This seemed fine, until the wind blew the umbrella over sideways. I was laying down right beside it, and at one point, it blew right on top of my head. My sister and my nephew stood and laughed for a bit before taking it off. When we realized this was not going to work, it was suggested that we just stick the baby in the shade by the tree...............

ReplyDeletewell i didn't get a tan, and my kids got a sunburn. But it was a fun day! (the 2 times that I went on the "slip and slide")
You forgot about Noah climbing to the top of the wheelchair lift a few times before my brain clicked as I was looking right at him climbing...before I told him to get down...
3 cheers for good training!
Man, i laughed so hard, I forgot to tag you!
ReplyDeleteHey - wanted to mention that those Yada Yada books are yours if you want to borrow them. I have both of them, actually. Remind me tomorrow night when you come over, ok?
ReplyDeleteI could totally picture all of this, play by play. And, I laughed. And, I missed being in the same country at the same time as you.
