Our Favorite Toy...

We have wanted a trampoline since before we had a place to put it. We have been looking online for sales but nothing was coming up that was cheap enough. We decided to check out Craigslist... BEST IDEA EVER. There were so many, most of which were almost half the price. We found one that was older and a few things needed to be replaced, but he really wanted to get rid of it so we were able to talk him down to $60. YES PLEASE!

This has seriously been the best purchase EVER! We have had so much fun. We put the sprinklers underneath and jump in our swimsuits, we do family time on it, we lay out on it, we have snack time on it, we play toys on it. We are on it all the time - it has been a blast!
The kids LOVE when we bounce them up super high. And we love to watch dad do tricks.
 We got the hose and sprayed the kids while they jumped. It was freezing cold water, but it was hot outside so the kids loved it!
That is of course until Scott doesn't stop spraying when Clara is yelling "too much, too much!" and then the fun and games end because someone gets hurt... :)
We finally got the new matt on. Now we just need to get the net up.... Scott is trying to talk me out of it, he says it is too restricting... agreed until a neighbor is jumping, falls off, breaks their arm and then sues us. Hmmm... pretty sure we need to get that net on there ASAP.

Awesome! We were never allowed a trampoline growing up because my Dad was too afraid we would get sued by someone! Ryan and I are getting one as soon as we can!

love these pics! Scott looks like an arrow going straight into the ground. He's amazing on the tramp! Looks like so much fun!
