Girl's night out and Waterslides for the end of Summer!!

Last night I went out for girl's night with my 2 neighbor friends Anna and Susie. Susie lives right next door and Anna is on the other side of her. They both found out the were expecting their 2nd babies soon after we moved here so we were all pregnant together. Susie also saved us when my water broke with Maggie, she took Julia for the whole night and next day. She is awesome! Well anyway her husband is going out of town for 2 weeks on Sunday so we got out for some adult time that was long overdue and we had a blast. Needless to say I am exhausted and need a nap. We discussed getting out Susie and Dan's GIANT water slide today to wear out the kids so we could also rest. Sure enough I looked out at 9 am and there it was larger than life in her backyard and ready to go.

So I quickly got Maggie down for a nap and got Julia into her suit and we took off. I am not kidding this thing is HUGE!!! I thought for sure that Julia would not climb up the ladder (which is just holes and handles in the side of it) much like a rock wall and if she did she would be too scared to slide (because it is SOO tall).



But up she went and down she flew FAST very FAST and slammed into the little wall at the bottom and loved every second of it.



And so this started the constant "Mama watch!!!" "Mama LOOK AT ME!!!" It was great! They had so much fun. Little Danny and Alex are still a little small to climb up but we would set them on the slide and let them go down. Then at the bottom is a baby pool area where they played with a bunch of toys.


Julia pouting because we have to leave. This is also the landing spot after you go down the slide.

If we go back over later I will try to get some video of her. If not I will update tomorrow after the first day of school!!!
