Check This Out!

Okay so this year for Christmas my husband had decided to make Emily a trampoline. Yes, I said make. We did buy the mat and springs, but he custom built the frame. We haven't given it to Emily yet, but I just had to post some pictures of it because it's pretty cool. This might be the biggest trampoline you will ever see in any ones back yard. Here is a picture of Bert standing in the middle of the frame. That is his brother A.J. welding behind them. Bert is 6'3 and his brother is taller. Yeah it's pretty big.
Another picture of A.J. welding in the back ground.

Okay this is my brother-in-law who is around 6'4 to 6'5 when he reaches is arms up over his head he can reach 8 foot. I can't believe Bert pulled this off.


Of course the boys had to have a little fun on the trampoline once the finished last night.





We are going to paint the trampoline so time. Does anyone of any suggestions on what color?
