Our new toy



I've been looking for months for a used trampoline on japanupdate.com to no avail. Trampolines in base housing in Okinawa are like babies in Utah....everywhere. I got really used to it in our old house because the wonderful Peterson's owned one and we used it like it was ours. Now that we moved, I had nowhere to send the kids to bounce out their excess energy. Anyway we broke down and bought a brand new one and I love it. Here's a pic of Ben helping Rob put it together (he is really into projects and being Mr Fix-It.) The next pic the kids are escaping the heat by jumping on the tramp with a sprinkler underneath. The picture is fuzzy because of course the camera fogged up the minute I stepped from our air conditioned house into the Okinawa air.

i love laying on the trampoline w sunglasses and my ipod watching all the cool clouds!!! They are also the best for the kids to sleep on for sleepovers!! You can even set up the little tents on them!!!
