Daddy and the kids running down the hill to the Jell-o Fight.

Yesterday we heard about a Jell-o fight at the Thanksgiving Point Gardens.  We decided to give it a try for fun since it was cousin Hannah’s last day in Utah.  I wasn’t so sure how exciting being covered in sticky gelatin on a day that was over 100 degrees would be so I bravely volunteered to sit with Magpie in the shade.

Little sister thought throwing the Jell-o was fun and came back sticky and red.  At first Deeds was quite excited, then he got dirty and sticky and he was done!  He sat with Magpie and mommy in the shade until they finally turned on the sprinklers.

Magpie loves how sweet Gwen smells covered in Jell-o

Once those sprinklers were on the roles were reversed and Gwen sat with mommy and Magpie while Deeds went nuts playing in the water.  He was soaking wet by the time we were all done but happy as a clam.

Love how happy he looks in this one!

Very wet but no longer sticky Deeds.

We are happy to know now that the gardens have a different activity for family night every Monday through the summer.  In a couple of weeks they even have one for Angry Birds that we will be anxiously waiting for.

Drying off in the sun after all the fun.
