"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

third annual slip n slide day!

Our kids are loving this tradition that we have unintentionally started!  Nathan's dad builds houses, so he always has tons of visquine (no idea if I spelled that right!) around the house.  They also have great hills that are perfect for a massive slip n slide.  So this is the third year now that we have done this, and it is so much fun!
 
At least, Kaine and Halle think it is so much fun!  They were loving that thing.


Layla, on the other hand...not so much!  Ha!  Poor girl...Nathan thought if he just tossed her down she would see how much fun it was.  Nope, didn't work.  (Love my picture-taking shadow in this pic!  Seems to be my usual pose :) )


Daisy wasn't too sure about the slip n slide either...


But Nathan sure loved it! 



And being the great daddy that he is, Nathan soon had the these two begging for more.  Good job, honey!!
 
 
Fun times.  Great summer.  Headed to Missouri for our next phase of training in just 2 days...and more on that later!
