Slip n' Slide

Marty's work held a family night BBQ this past Monday and it was so much fun! One of the main attractions was.....a GIANT Slip n' Slide! No joke, this thing was massive AND it was placed on a gigantic hill! I was actually bummed that I didn't wear a swimsuit for the event. All the husbands did and they spent half of the night trying to out slide eachother. Marty was in the lead even after a few mishaps, but lost in the last run to Brother Thompson who slid 3 1/2 feet past Marty's unbeatable mark. It's okay honey....there's always next year. Ofcourse, all the kids loved it too. Marty thought for sure Nyah would love the slide, so he took her down from the half-way mark. She did amazingly well. She loves water! We didn't even try with Ethan this year. He is a little more timid around things like that. It was also great to talk with the other "seminary" wives. Marty works with the best people and their families are just as great! We will definately go next year.....and I'll be sure to bring my swimsuit!


Here is the GIANT slip n' slide!
