FUN IN THE SUN

We had a great Memorial Day weekend, complete with a visit from Nana and Big Daddy and a visit to the Oates water park for Eli's 3rd birthday. Eli's parents rented a huge inflatable water slide for the occassion which Cal was immediately drawn to. We started out with mom holding Cal near the bottom of the slide and pushing him down the last few feet in between the big kids coming down from the top. He finally suckered dad into taking him all the way down the slide even though all the other kids using it were about 10 years older than Cal. If you're a regular reader of the blog, you will not be surprised to learn that he instantly LOVED it and demanded to go down over and over. This happened until dad slipped backward down the stairs and took out about 3 kids in the process. We're the first family in history to be thrown out of an Oates family gathering for being too wild. God willing, we won't be the last.
