End of the Summer Fun

Let's Go Sailing...
Our sailing excurison occured at the Mesa Arts Center. Prior to departure, we each bought a boat kit for $1 at Michael's and painted it for our race. Then it was time for our maiden voyage. Let's see if the boats sink or swim...

testing out the boats. They float, well kind of. Bryan added supports on the side to our boats.

Elle & Colby having fun in the fountains. It didn't matter to the kids if the boats stayed upright or not, we all still had fun.

Bryan and Zach racing the boats. It was too close to call who won. They had to blow on the boats to get them to the finish line.

Water...
a few of our neighbors got together to play with water balloons and a slip n' slide outside of our home. Bryan and I filled about 250 balloons.

Hmm...what happens if I bite this balloon?

...it breaks and goes up my nose.

the guys played HORSE with the waterballoons.

Water balloon volleyball, pretty cool net, huh?
