The Enormous Slide



Because Rod is the esteemed "Vice-President" of our Homeowner's Association, we have access to this humongous water slide that is probably as tall as the ceiling on the first story of the house. Our backyard ends up being a neighborhood kid hotspot every time we bring out the slide because you can see it set up over the fence. Both Kenneth and Evelyn have dramatically improved their swimming skills this summer, due in part to a sum of 4 weeks of nightly swim lessons and the fact that Nana and Pops have a pool at their house (and they are now in Austin, so they are close by). Kenneth is putting on his "serious" face in his picture.

Rod and I have officially scheduled our (somewhat delayed) 10 year anniversary trip to Manhattan. We went there for our honeymoon in July 1996 and will be going back in mid-September for a Wed-Sat trip. Plans are to visit Caroline's Comedy Club and at least 2 Broadway shows. Nana will come to our house to stay with the kids while we are away.

Have fun on the trip, it sounds like it will be quite fun. The slide sounds like quite the adventure too, tell Rodney good luck with his HOA experience!!!
