Back To School: Water Edition

We had a fun, fun summer...where did it ALL go?

Did I ever mention I have the privilege of babysitting a whole slew of kids a few times a week during the summer?

We did everything from deep frying things and making treats to having a lemonade stand and hitting the movies...

So I had a talk with my peeps and we decided that for the last "day" of Summer we would have a water obstacle and water fight.

The water obstacle was a HIT! Bracken helped me design it from the things we found in my mom's garage.

The water fight on the other hand...3/4 of the kids were crying by the end...(almost felt like a movie!)

Let's focus on the obstacle course, it went like this:

Start by swing set, put life jacket on (because water is involved :))

Climb through bendy tent...

The drag tube and paddle over to pool and paddle ten times...

Choose your vehicle and manurer around the 3 cement obstacles...

The pop a water balloon on the trampoline without using your hands...

Slide down the BIG water slide...

Dodging these guys...

and these guys...

As you slide down the slip n' slide and touch home plate (and seriously I don't have a picture of this!)

MEANWHILE>>>

Some chose not to get wet and dance around with excitement...

And where is Bergs this WHOLE time?

Where she is happiest, in her swing-swing...
