On the way home from the zoo, we decided to stop at this cute little restaurant, called, The Little Red Barn. Well, we were happy as clams to be going in and getting a nice, country style meal...Uhhh...ya.
Thought we left the zoo behind! Instead, as we went inside, we were greated by Wanda...(names have been changed to protect the innocent...) Wanda told us to just to just sit down...we did what Wanda said, as Wanda didn't look like someone we wanted to argue with. Just ask Hallie! Our friend Joe ordered the salad bar...figured he was the smart one. Until later, I told him I should have had the salad bar, and Joe's reply was, "No Jimi...only one of us needs to get salmanilla." Oh My! Their were a few more customers coming in the door...Bubba. Jim-Bob, his brother Darrel and his other brother Darryl. We came to the conclusion that Jeff Foxworthy must have come up with most of his jokes at this establishment. "You know your a redneck..." Ya.
As we left the restaurant, I found we were leaving with a friend...a worm that had attached himself to MY ARM! I do believe he was BEGGING to get out of there!
I DO NOT RECOMMEND "THE LITTLE RED BARN",
IN GRAND MOUND WASHINGTON...
I'm Just Sayin'...

This is me...enjoying the water. Don't you love my new baby blue swimsuit??
This HUGE bucket dumped water on unsuspecting victims below.
My Nicki was a ready participant! :)

One girl was not so ready...in her itsy bitsy teeny weeny bikini...the water comes down in SUCH a SPLASH, that it pulled her bottoms right down! She handled it well, and those around her had a good laugh. My husband was nowhere in sight...So I promptly told him the story. :)

Wow...look here! Another picture of me, in my yellow bikini...sporting my shades and sunhat. Don't know why I wore the hat really, we were indoors...Tony, I told you not to take this picture of me. But, I had to post it just to prove I was there!

Joe coming down one of the many slides. I couldn't get pictures of the really impressive slides...Look up "The Tornado" online! The kids had a ball on that one!

Oh I TOTALLY forgot about this guy! He kept buying me drinks, and was asking for my phone number. I think he liked my awesome red swimsuit! Unfortunately, I had to tell him I was married, and that it was my 4 children who were running up and down the hallways screaming at such high decibles...
I told him about the Little Red Barn...
I think he was going to go pay Wanda a Visit...

Sophia and Derrick...They were so MUCH fun to hang out with!!

Even Miss. Kaycee went swimming. Although she didn't like it much. I think it was just too cold for her. But she never cried...My little trooper!
