Life's Obstacles

We are set to record America's Funniest Home Videos. It's a family favorite. One day when we were ready to watch our recording it had recorded a show called Wipeout instead. It is now the boy's favorite show. Lincoln asks me every day, sometimes 10 or 20 times a day, "what day is it mom? how many days until there's a new Wipeout?" If you haven't seen it, it is a serious of obstacle courses that are nearly impossible to cross without falling in some awful, awkward way - getting all wet or muddy or foamy or a combination of all of these. The commentators are hilarious.

The kids have been setting up obstacle courses all through the house and have a great time coming up with new ways to wipe out. One time we went to the park and took turns telling each other what to do to make it through our course. Jackson's nearly wiped me out with his course because it was so LONG! He also chose some pretty small spaces to squeeze through. We've been having a lot of fun with it.
