It's a refreshing and fun welcome after a long,hot day at work! I have found the easiest way to fill water balloons is to use a nozzle attachment (looks like a gun)on the hose! That way the water comes off and on with just a squeeze of the handle and I can sit comfortably in a chair.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16600338142463495958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-598841562237715955.post-81190824051119042382012-07-26T13:13:19.387-07:002012-07-26T13:13:19.387-07:00Ha!!

As for the water balloons...in the ice chest... :)we may be trying this one later this week. My daughter would love this, and so would the children around our new home. Great activity to make friends on a hot summer day.

I kept overfilling them :)<br /><br />I need to let them make a play mat like that again.
