Waterslide

Monday morning we went to a water slide somewhere in Idaho (I have no clue where we were)

but we sure had a blast. There was so much to do there.

The slide was a little deep, but the kids were going nuts.

My little Katelyn enjoying the sun and the slide

what a princess

Mike, Doug, Nathen & Tyler had a race down the slide

Mike won!
Yes, even I went down the slide

Mike & Dallin going down the slide

After about 3 hours of going down the slides we took a break and had a candy hunt.

The lady of the house fills this up with candy and shoots in the air and it goes EVERYWHERE

the kids went crazzzzzy over it.

McKayla & Mike finding candy

even Kateyn was finding candy

After the candy hunt Katelyn gave Dallin a sucker and he was enjoying it.

Next we went and played on the Zip line.

I got up but I just couldn't do it

Look what age has done to me. . .10 years ago I did it all

but Mike did it and he said it was a lot of fun, I'll take his word on it

Dallin & Mike just hagging out
