a day at the park

So yesterday sarahbeth, tj and i spent the day with our friends, the neve's. they are soooo lucky, the have a yellow slide, (the words from sarahbeth) actually their apartment complex just finished building a brand new little playground that we got to play at with them. the first thing tj did was climb to the tallest slide and try and go down it, you know, the kind that is really really high and curves a ton. one of his little feet got stuck some where near the top though and he ended up upside down and bit the dirt at the bottom. it was a while before he went down ANY of the slides after that. but, over all the kids had sooooooooooo much fun, it was hard convincing them to go back inside.

Sarahbeth the raconteur

This is Sarahbeth regaling us with her new favorite story. While this story may sound familiar, you will come to find that this particular version has found a way to capture the essential elements of the story and draw them out for an extended period. She is a natural at building suspense for her audience.
