From Play Houses to Trapolines

The boys have wanted a trampoline for the longest time, but we really don't have the room because of the playhouse and the pool.  Plus Tony has always said no!!  I decided I wanted to surprise them and get them a trampoline for Easter.  I checked with Tony on the Thursday before and was told that they're wouldn't be a trampoline until the playhouse was sold and taken away without any help from him!

A tall order to be done in 2 days!

Well, you wouldn't believe the bidding war that consumed on Good Friday.  We had families offering to come and get it that night, or sending etransfers to secure their purchase!  It was crazy!  

The playhouse was gone by noon the next morning and the trampoline bought that afternoon!

It was sad seeing the playhouse being taken away.  An end of an era.  It was purchased for Owen's third birthday and our first summer in our new home.  Many summers spent playing, picnics,  and shelter from the sun after being in the pool all day! 

Good bye playhouse....

 Hello trampoline!!
