We have a good groups of kids in our ward between the ages of 4 and 6. They all like one another and play well together. This year a lot of us have had little playgroups for the different ages. Since school is ending one of the girls invited all of the preschool and kindergarten kids over to her house for a water party. Her mom got one of those huge blow-up water slides, had hot dogs for lunch and let the kids just play. It ended up being a lot of fun. Trevor and Colin had such a great time jumping on the trampoline, shooting kids with water and playing on the slide. Logan splashed around in the wet grass, chased a duck around the yard and walked around eating food from everyone's plates. The moms had a good time talking and watching our kids. It's so nice to see all of the friends my boys have to grow up with. No matter if they are younger or older than Trevor and Colin they all get along so well and have such a good time together. It makes me wonder if they'll have water parties with these same kids when they are all teenagers. I hope so. I loved growing up with same group of kids and still knowing them today. I'd love for my boys to have that as well - childhood friends they stick with all their lives.

Life long friends are the best!
From the duck to the friends and the water slide to chatting with the other moms, I am officially jealous. I want to move into your neighborhood. Since you guys are so handy around the house (looks fabulous), maybe you could just add on to your house and we'll just move in.
Erika,
We'd love to have you! I think we live in the best ward so it would be great to add more good people. We have a play house in the backyard....
