    Default I cant wait to see dd's face on christmas morning.

    Last year some time my dd saw a trampoline at BJ's and decided she wanted it. Well it was several hundred dollars and her Dad total her that she would have to save her money for a really long time if she wanted it. So for over a year my five year old has been saveing her 2.00 a week. I thought for sure she would forget about it but she hasnt. She still doesnt have anywhere near enough and she keeps asking me how much more.

    This morning I ordered a trampoline for her and thats going to be her big gift from Santa. Its not the one she saw but she wont know the difference its been so long. I dont know who is going to be more excited, me or her.

    What a great gift! My daughter had endless hours of fun on her trampoline. It had a safety net around the sides (good investment) and in the summertime her and her friends would hook up the sprinkler over it. A few times they even camped out "under the stars" on the thing!

    AHHHHHH!!!! THAT IS AWESOME!!!!!

    I got my first big trampoline when I was 5 and was in hog heaven!!! Had one through all my growing up years!! I used to say I wanted a home that had a living room with high ceilings so I could have the trampoline indoors! Little do they know I'd still like that!!! hahahaha
