The World Record for Chair diving...49 seconds.

Today's adventures...The boys are loving us being here, especially when Denise and George are not there. They know that we don't know the "rules". We were watching them today and one of them was riding their skateboard through the house and Hilary asked, "So...does your mom let you ride your skateboard in the house?" and he said "Well, my mom doesn't let me use my big one in the house, but she lets me use my little one." Hilary says..."So if I called your mom right now she would say that it's okay for you to be riding your small skateboard in the house." He says..."Well, as long as I don't break anything." Funny!! So...later at dinner with George and Denise and no boys...Hilary says, "So tell me about the skateboard rules..." Denise says..."Oh, yeah, absolutely no skateboarding in the house!" We all laughed so hard. So clearly they were working it, knowing that we did not know the rules.
Also, we went to the lake today and they decided that they were going to play this little game with a plastic chair that they would set on the edge of the dock and sit in it and push each other in with the chair. Here are some pictures...


Then they started playing a game where one of them would hold the chair out and they timed each other to see how long they could stay on the chair before falling in. All probably not the safest things to be doing, so again Hilary says, "Umm...guys should you be doing that?" They yell back, "Yeah, we do it all the time, its the most fun thing to do. We're setting the world record!"
So back to our dinner time, we ask Denise and George, "So they do that all the time?" Denise says, "Yeah, they have never done that before...they have seen other kids do it before while their parents are in the pool, but they haven't done it!" Again, we laughed. They are stinkers!!!
