Moon Dough and Pit Spitting

It was about 88 degrees when they came and immediately set up a new slip and slide. It took forever to fill up and then we found that our water pressure wasn't high enough (a well) to make it work since it was a triple slide but they got plenty wet from the pool at the end of the slide. Then later for a break in the shade they played with the Moon Dough and made pizzas and hamburgers. Tor had even forgot what Moon Dough was, since it had been so long since they played with it last.
 I had just picked some cherries and had them try them. Jillian thought they were sweeter than store ones, Bridget was so-so, and Tor tried one. I told them about a pit spitting contest so they decided to try it. Jillian won the first couple spits, then Bridget finally won one. You're supposed to curl your tongue to make the pit go farther, but Bridget couldn't curl her tongue yet.
