Makes Me Laugh Every Time

Don't know why, but trampoline pictures never get old. In fact, they just get funnier the more you examine them. Kind of like those 3D pictures. The more you stare at them the more you see. These were taken at Christine and Jared's on Mother's day. We all met for desserts that evening (which is why the kids are in pj's with Mike in a diaper). The cousins didn't waste time and made the most of the fading light outside on the tramp. The funniest thing in these pictures is the progression of Mike. The kid doesn't have much grace or balance... maybe its the size of his big noggin?

Nice air Abbey!
As you can see, Mike spends a lot of time on his knees trying to keep up with the bigger kids.
Look at Wyatt's air, he is a trampoline pro.
Here is where it starts to get really funny... Mike finally gets some air...
To only fall back on the landing... instant tuck and roll...
Everyone notices Mike huddled in the fetal position... waiting to see if he will cry (he does that a lot when on the tramp)
Nope...false alarm... he's okay, back to playing...
Don't you love trampolines... pure joy and pure terror all in one, and it always makes the funniest pictures.

I love these pictures! I loved Mike's "tuck and roll." Yes, I agree, the tramp pictures are the best. Remember how we laughed about Cam and Aaron playing b-ball? I mean, how many years later, and we still laugh. I have a feeling that these pictures will be the same thing for these cousins. We have so many fun ones...and video too. We're going to have a great time watching and looking at these when they're all grown up!

I don't know Con, I think Mike may be a late bloomer. As soon as he grows into his head he's gonna be the most graceful! I mean look at the last picture... perfect form: )
