Trampoline!!

Hello There!  This is the post that I meant to get posted on Tuesday.  I am just a little bit late.  Oh well.  I finally got back to the computer and I wanted to share some pictures of a recent purchase of ours….

That’s right, last weekend we bought a trampoline.  It was between a trampoline and a swingset, and we went with a trampoline.  Cooper’s cousins Layne and Larissa have a trampoline and Cooper has such a great time when he goes there, we thought it would be the best option.  Plus, the entire family can enjoy this gift. 

Last Sunday, we bribed Ryan and Andrew with some of the Pioneer Woman’s pulled pork and some other goodies for lunch and then we got busy assembling the trampoline.   

Here are a few pictures of the assembly process, we didn’t document it all, but it was not too bad to put together.  It was pretty easy with 4 of us.

Then, we got busy jumping.  Here is Ryan mid flip.

And Andrew, getting his jump on….

And a few of Cooper too….

After all that jumping, Cooper needed a break, so Stephanie and Ryan sat with him while he had a drink.

Then it was Tim’s turn.  He hadn’t jumped on a trampoline since he was in elementary school, so it was pretty new to him.  He says he didn’t care for it much, but he’s been on there a few times, I think he likes it a bit more than he is telling us

Finally my turn.  Here’s one of Cooper and me jumping together. 

Then me remembering how to jump a little, I had to try some old cheerleading jumps, but obviously, I didn’t feel like keeping my legs very straight during the jumps.

Then we got some of the neighbor girls to come over and jump with Cooper.

And finally, Cooper laying on top of his dad.

Have a great weekend friends!
