Slip and Slide




Here is a new Christmastime tradition we never enjoyed in Illinois: slip-n-slide! One of the missionaries on our compound bought a big sheet of black plastic, they squirted some dish soap on it, turned on the sprinkler and - instant fun!

Nate got cold pretty quick and was a little apprehensive about everything, but Lexi absolutely loved it. She even let the older kids pull her down. She also got to wear her new swimming suit, because she has out grown her other one.

Isn't winter a great time of year!

Slip-n-slide looks fun. I would try it. We STILL miss you in the neighborhood. Clayton just turned 9. Don't blink or your little ones will soon be 9, too. Our best wishes to you for a great New Year. I really enjoy your posts and pictures. Trisha
