tramp.

We've They've been diggin' a hole.


No, not for a pool.

For something much more dangerous.

How many men does it take to carry a trampoline across a yard?




Time to get our jump on.

that's an awesome idea with digging out the hole!!!

Oh, wow! I'm so jealous! Wish I could come by and jump around for awhile.

That is the most awesome idea! Definitely puts more more at ease about getting my jump on ;) hehe

I have always wanted to do this but hubby always asks me what do we do when the hole fills up with water....a mosquito fest here in Iowa! Is that a trench you put around it? Do you put some type of pipe in to drain it away? Any feedback I could give my hubs I would be forever grateful as our trampoline is kinda a eyesore looking out into our beautiful farm field horizon.

Oh how awesome! I totally want one, too!

Maria said...

AHH we've been wanting to do this so badly!! Did you just measure the trampoline and then dig and go for it?! ANy advice or how-to? The things i wonder about are rain and snow and if that will cause problems underneath..i bet your boys are so happy!!

I never dug a hole for our tramp. (She died recently... RIP)

There were always kids flying off like the monkeys on the bed that broke their heads. Good thinkin' to dig that hole.

I love it! Especially since I thought you might talk about the movie "Lady and the Tramp" from your blog title and talking about digging holes.:)

This is only the second time I've seen one put in a hole. The boys are going to have some good "jumping" fun.

So my in-laws did this but it wasn't perfectly flush and my little two year old somehow found a small gap and slipped down and sliced his head open...I found a bigger gap at 5 months pregnant and pulled him out...15 stitches later we don't jump on tramps anymore. Oh and once it did fill up with water and I was a nervous wreck, and a puppy did actually slip in but luckily was able to swim to us at another hole. Sorry to be a downer.

Brillant idea!

Great idea! My husband needs to get on this....stat!

My sister and her husband did this to their tramp years ago and it's been great. They live in sand, so drainage was never a problem. Great fun!

bad idea if they bounce off they will slam on the ground get rid of it not worth the risk to them

Lots of differing opinions! But being married to an ortho surgeon... he thinks that this is a great idea!

My only question was about water/drainage....

GREAT idea!

This is genius! What a clever idea :) Also, on an unrelated note, your blog name is so cute!

I love that they both have one foot on, anticipating the approval to jump!
