Slliiiiiip! Slip-n-slide!

Jonah's approach and leap!
(Yes, we've added a Shark Slip-n-slide to our new backyard! Since the boys loved the one at Uncle Tim & Auntie Kat's house SO much, it seemed like a good idea.)

Mid-slide!

And the resulting exit - thru the mouth of the shark!

And here's the ONE photo Merrik "allowed" me to take of him! (my shy guy)

I'm so glad that we got this slip'n'slide for the boys! I'd originally gone to the store with the idea of getting a cool kiddie pool, since the one we'd had a few summers back in Agawam was so great. However, once the boys saw this, there was NO going back. And I am thrilled with the change in choice. This is completely their thing. The running, the jumping, the sliding, the splashing, the running, jumping, sliding, running, jumping, splashing,running (you get the picture). THIS is what they needed to expend that energy & fill the hot summer afternoons with joy & laughter. THANK YOU Slip'n'slide manufacturers.
