September begins with the girls back in school, Kourtney beginning her Sophmore year and Emily as a 6th grader in middle school. Labor day weekend lent itself to Nick and his softball buddies throwing a "family" bash. A little bashed it ended up being after the guys put together a 120 foot slip and slide for the kids (and adults) that provided hours of entertainment and was the beginning of an annual "olympic style" competition for furtherest distance slid. A summer luge if you will.
Every now and again adults have to see if they can compete with kids a third of their age. Nick was up for the challenge and did quite well, willing GOLD this year, beating out the gracefulness of Tara Fritz and Marlee Drumheller. Better luck next year girls! This accomplishment did not come without a price to pay for Nick, as he has been taking Tylenol and Advil on a schedule since Monday morning. He will tell you it was well worth it. The girls did not come away unscathed either, as each one of them proudly displayed bruises on their hip bones from landing belly first onto the slide.
Perhaps we will submit our video to YouTube!
