Fun with Water

This post should actually be titled Fun with Water and a Few Chickens, but whatever. 

Each time we dump food scraps into our compost bin either the chickens, the dog or the cats immediately show up to snack. On this particular day, the chickens were the winners, sorry Chuckles.

 The real excitement that evening wasn't the compost, it was impromptu Slip-n-Slide! We have a couple cheap tarps so we laid one out, added a bit of dish soap and water and let the boys go cray.

 They thought the farther back they started their running approach the better the slide would be.

 They had a great time! Plus they were actually clean when they were done....kind of.

 They continue to enjoy having their "pool" even though the weather has been cool and rainy for days. I think Levi put a frog in it...so who knows what else might make a home in the pool, too.

 Likely the most exciting addition to the yard lately has been the Razor Rip Rider 360. The boys can pedal all around the shed (it only works on concrete) and spin themselves until they're dizzy.

 The best part is that it doesn't make any noise!

 And the chickens...we love how they make their way all over the yard...we just have to keep an eye out to protect grandma's flowers (right, mom?!). :-)
