Slip "N Slide .... Round 2

Gracie really is enjoying the new slip 'n slide, which is why we had to get it out 2 days in a row!

While I was rushing around to get Ella outside to play in the water, we had an accident. I told Ella to come with me, and she came running at me at a dead run. Needless to say, she tripped on a rug and got her first goose egg as her head smashed into our couch's arm on some brass detailing. Ouch! The picture doesn't do it justice. It swelled up nicely, but not as bad as Gracie's first goose egg. I really thought her head was going to explode as it kept growing!

Brent placed the slip 'n slide on our hill this time. It's a small slide, so it's not like we got to use the entire hill, but it was enough for our crew. As you can see, Brent slid quite well.

The ducks in the pool area were for Ella's benefit. Gracie just like crashing into them. Whee!

Oh yes, I remember Gracie's goose egg. That was sooooooo scary. Wonder if Ella's will turn colors. Glad she's okay. Looks like everyone did enjoy the slip 'n slide.
