Sam and BestFriendPete got together outside of school. Party on the playground! They were super excited to see each other and ran themselves ragged while three adults tried (sometimes unsuccessfully) to keep up with them and make sure they didn't fling themselves off a teeter totter. Luckily, it would seem teeter totters are not in vogue on today's playground, but they found plenty of other fun items from which to fling themselves. Fun fact: Sam and Pete were born within a day of each other at the same hospital, so we like to think of them exchanging greetings in the nursery. They go waaaay back.

Hi friend. Shall we fling ourselves from this jungle gym?

Yes, we shall. Commence the flinging!

I think Sam may be Pete's sidekick. I wish it were different, but I'm pretty sure Sam is the Robin to Pete's Batman.

Pete says sometimes his sidekick gets on his nerves.

Pete was first to cross the bridge, but Sam followed quickly and started jumping up and down to make it extra exciting.

When you're this cute, you don't have to follow slide etiquette.

No girls allowed, Mama!

Hey, Pete, come give me a leg up!

OK, you climb up first, and I'll catch you.

Where's my Sherpa?
