Boing!

Scott putting on the springs.  I started taking picture at this point when he said, "You should be documenting this."  Guess he wanted his hard work to be remembered!

After much debate about whether or not a trampoline would fit in the yard, what kind to get, and how to level it, we finally took the plunge and decided on a trampoline for Mimi and Poppi to buy for the kids.  It is a 9 x 15 rectangular trampoline with the net and turns out it fits perfectly in our yard and has been a great purchase!  The kids jump on it every day, sometimes multiple times a day, and have had so much fun with it.  There might be two grown ups that have had a lot of fun on it too :)  Scott put it together in about 4 or 5 hours one Saturday afternoon, just in time for our small group to come over and for all the kids to try it out.  And by all, I mean literally ALL.  I think there were about 15 kids on it at one point.  Not very safe maybe, but fun and very cute.  It has given the kids something to do in the backyard besides the sand box and has already given us lots of fun family time.

The trampoline is something that all 3 of them will actually do all together!
