Super Trampoline!

We decided to give the Taste of Oviedo a try this year, since they moved it to the Oviedo Mall and we wouldn't have to park far away (like the crowd usually requires). We were disappointed with it though...it seemed like Great Day in the Country, which we go to every year, except replace the craft booths with businesses. Which means you couldn't walk 10 feet without getting bombarded about phone service, pool cleaning, local politicians, chiropractors...we felt like we needed to walk quickly and not make eye contact with anybody! So needless to say, I think we'll stick with Great Day in the Country. But at least there was a super bungee trampoline, which we've been wanting to try with the girls for a while! Madi went first, and she was excited but a little nervous. She did a few super high bounces and was smiling, then I think she realized just how high she really was. :) She did smaller bounces after that, but she was still bouncing a few feet above the trampoline, which is way more than she can bounce at home!




 Next was Emily's turn! We couldn't let her do any super high bounces because she doesn't have the core strength or the understanding to hang on to the ropes. But the attendants were really helpful and had us hang on to her harness so she could still bounce higher than a regular trampoline. She was trying so hard to bounce while they were hooking up her harness, and was getting a little impatient. :) Once Austin started bouncing her, she looked like she couldn't quite figure out what was going on, but she did several bounces and was smiling! We're so proud of them for being so brave!
