I took a lot of pictures this weekend, as we did a lot of things, so I will post the next few days about our exciting weekend. I think I will post these out of order, however.
Our city/town had a nice little family event. We didn't watch the fireworks from there (too crowded) but it did kill a lot of time before hand. And who can resist a giant inflatable slide???As you can see, Greta was not shy to take on this slide. Up she went, the first of many trips down.
The first trip down, her eyes bugged out of her head. She giggled and then ran back to get in line again....
Until she got to the top. This is Greta holding out her arms and holding up the line for us to come get her because, all of the sudden, she has decided that the trip down was not as much fun as it seemed. And so, here we are hollering up at her like lunatics, with paparazzi-parents waiting with cameras pointed for Greta to go so their little darlings can be photographically preserved for all eternity, and Chris and I are yelling through clenched teeth 'Greta, you have to come down. Come down. Please come down.' So Chris suggested she try going down on her stomach.
Voila. It worked. (Who's the dumb mommy who put her kid in a dress anyways....Hey, at least mine was wearing underwear. There was one little girl who decided to take on the world, and the slide, as a free spirit. Hope she wasn't one of the ones walking away with slide burns anywhere....) And so, this was one of probably 25 other trips down the slide, which ended finally in Greta deciding to go down once more on her butt. Which looked very much like the first photo, just with more smiles.
