Trampoline!

Now that we have a backyard and some space for the kids to run around, we decided we needed some stuff for them to do out there. I originally wanted to get a playset thinking that more kids could play on it at one time but Clay wanted to get a trampoline because he had one as a kid and has lots of good (and crazy) memories about it. I always swore I would never have a trampoline because they are so dangerous!!

After spending more time with Will on playsets, I decided that it was not a good idea for our backyard if I ever wanted to be able to relax (he just wants to climb up and down stairs and I'm always afraid he's going to fall through the open areas)! A trampoline would probably be safer because at least it has a net around it now!

So, we got a trampoline! It arrived last week and Addie was so excited to jump on it once Clay got it set up! She was out jumping at 9am the next morning! Will is still unsure of it. At least it gives the kids something to do outside besides dig in the dirt. It will be even better when we get our grass/yard in!





Her cousin, Colton, came over for a playdate today and taught Addie how to play Deadman, Deadman and Crack the Egg. Here she is trying not to get cracked- and yes, I'm pretty sure she's cheating!
