End of Summer Hoorah Part 2

After fun at the Grandma and Grandpa B's, we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Gilberts for the 2nd part of our little trip. The kids jumped on the trampoline, built forts, explored through the orchard, and played till there was not an inch of there body that was not covered in dirt.  They love the adventure of the farm. At night time they always look forward to Grandpa's stories. After all of the fun exploring we headed to Callahan's waterslide.  It has become quite the attraction in our little farm town.  What a blast!  The kids loved it.  The game was to see which method of going down the slide was the funnest and fastest.  I think the air matress took the prize. What a way to end the summerMylie and Brielle on the trampoline- What cute girls.
Breydon and Wyatt worked really hard making a fort out of grandpa's cherry wood. Their final product had a sheet draped around it to form a teepee. Much to their dismay, the only old sheet grandma had was covered with a rose pattern. Not a very manly looking sheet, but the fort turned out awesome.
After all these years Brer Bear and Brer Fox are still trying to figure out how to catch Brer Rabbit. My kids love hearing grandpa read them stories and are wondering if Brer Fox and Brer Bear will ever catch on to Brer Rabbit and his briar patch tricks.

Wyatt tried the turtle backwards. It was pretty exciting.

Brielle preferred going down on her little tush. It slowed the action down a little bit.

Breydon tried going down every way imaginable, but I think the matress was his favorite.

Dane just liked to stand at the bottom and watch. I took him down with me once, but knew he had no desire to go down again any time soon.

How many kids can you fit on an air matress speeding down a waterslide and not end up with any broken bones? LOTS!

Dad and Cami had to see what all the fuss over the mattress was about.

Then mom went with dad to try it too. I think they liked it!
