Playing Catch Up, Part Four: Slip and Slides

After this, I will FINALLY be caught up with showing off my pictures -- yea!

For Rindy's 25 birthday (on the 25th), we decided to have a slip and slide party. Because, yes, we're in our mid to late 20s and we think it's awesome to have slip and slides.

After Monday, though, I think we all wanted to pass out from exhaustion. And bruises and scrapes. And possible concussions.

Anyway, it might have taken me the better part of a day to figure all this out, but here are three videos from our Slip and Slide Extravaganza for your viewing pleasure!

Video 1: Girls' Race
Me and Rindy find out...I'm the better slider, hahahaha!!!



Video 2: Boys' Race
Superman and Dustin compete.



Video 3: Superman consistently worries that he's going to have to take Dustin to the hospital for a concussion.

I was hoping for some pictures! That is a riot, but I must say it works so much better on a hill. Not that I'd try it, I mena y'all were brave just trying to slip and slide, I'd break something, no thanks. I'll stick to the band sprinkler.
I'd like to know how many drinks were involved here? There could be some intoxication to report.

Slip and slide away! Looks like fun. I probably would've got hurt, knowing my luck. Enjoyable post.

OK ... greatest party idea ever! However, I can't see my 30-something-year-old girlfriends doing this. But, I think it would be a blast. And, your slide was WAY better than that other girl's.

GREAT idea! Way to really live life! Any suggestions on how to successfully post videos - as you've done it 3 times? When I've tried on the past, it almost always gives up. I've been successful, twice, after at least 2 dozen attempts, not sure why it doesn't work immediately.....
