Our new toys!



We are always sorry when friends move, but not sorry enough to decline the chance at a tramp in the backyard which beckons us outside for ten minutes at a time even in the heat of the day. The new hammock is a Mexico purchase and the new drums are repurposed #10 cans from food storage. My kids spent a full hour just playing with their drums and listening to music :) Hooray for new toys and friends to play with!

Trampoline?! So fun!!! Especially that it was free ;) That is so fun for your cute girls! And I love your idea of decorating the "drums", it is so cute and of course the kids would love it!

You definitely have the "cool" house on the block. Thank you again for all your help. You are SOO WONDERFUL!! I love the room color more and more everyday.

Your blog always makes me laugh, you definitely can't miss your friends too much if they give you a trampoline! I'm going to have to copy you on the "drums." They played with them for a hour!!! That is some precious play time, I can't get my girls to play with anything for a hour.

I love your idea for the #10 cans. I keep giving my empty ones to Landon's preschool, but I will have to copy your idea now. The trampoline will be such a fun activity for you guys...and at a great price!

Thats the way to do it. I love the pink boots by the way. Lexie had a pair at that age and Brandon hated them and Lex and I loved them.

We still need to make a tire swing like the Rebers. Now we're way behind!

It looks like a lot of fun around your place. We must come and see!

You are always so clever with your crafting. The drums are not only fun, but cute. Looks like fun on the trampoline. Hope you are enjoying your summer. We'll be home in a week. Yahoo!

I love that first picture of Ella and her gigantic "Cheese!" Adorable! The closer Ben gets to being a graduate the hungrier I'm getting to have a closed yard and garage. All the toys look super fun!

Taylor wants a trampoline so bad, I worry about her falling off though! We would have to get one with a net.
