Bleu's Water Slide Birthday Party

Yesterday, J², the Little Rottens, and I all hopped in my Go-mobile to travel deep across the Stateline, down into Mississippi to celebrate the Little Rotten's sister's, Bleu, birthday party.  This incredible little girl turned 10; a whole decade!! 

To celebrate the fantastic Bleu's birthday she was provided a giant, inflatable water slide birthday party. I could not wait to slap on my swimming suit, put my camera in it's new underwater bag, and join the festivities.   

The slide towered over twenty feet in the air!  Every time a child slid down, no matter the size of the child, the tower rumbled like thunder.

I even took my turn at climbing into the tower to ride down.  I rode the slide six times in all.  Two times I slipped and I slid down the stairs injuring my arms. The first time I slipped I did not have a grasp on the handles. I tumbled down the ladder stairs like purple and white swirled bowling ball. The line of children who were scurrying up the slide for their turns behind me ended up in a pile in the pool. The second time I slipped I held on to the handles. Children scurried, evacuated the sides, and sat on the walls to prevent another dog pile in the pool. Even though I ended up with an adult sized water slide enema and epic swimming suit wedge I would do it again.  It is a blast!   

Take a look at the good times below.
