Neighborhood Water Slide

We  have a grassy area on the north side of our house that is owned by the city of Lehi for drainage. Our neighbors on the other side of the grassy field, the Rogowski family, set up a huge slip-in-slide on this hot August day. When our kids saw the slide they put on their swimming suits in record breaking time, ran over to the grassy field and had a blast. We heard rumors of this awesome slide, but didn't think we would experience it this year. We are so glad that we did! Thanks Rogowskis!

The different slide techniques of Grace Butler. She was a mini torpedo.

Kate was hilarious! Every single time she went down the slide, she would point her arm out. Every singe time! Then when she hit the puddle at the end, she would turn around so that her face wouldn't get splashed on. All of the adults cracked up every time she pointed the way down the hill. Kate liked the water slide the most.

Emmy sat at the top of the hill and watched each slider go down like she was watching a tennis match. She followed each child up and down the hill, up and down the hill. Again and again. She can't wait to be big.

At the end Parker and Kate finally got brave enough to ride together. Notice no pointing?! Kate was too busy holding on for dear life.
