New Toys

This year for his birthday, Michael got a trampoline from Grandpa and Grandma and a soccer goal from Uncle Jonathan, Aunt Becky, Benjamin and Paul. He is excited about both gifts. Thankfully the weather has started to cooperate so that James and Michael can play outside with them. 
Michael was sure that he knew how to put the trampoline together, so he was helping Jon. 
 James was helping too, but in a more productive way. James brought Jon all the pieces that he needed.
 Waiting to jump.

 Finally!
There is a net that goes around it, but it was late and the bugs were out. Jon hit a stopping point, but he let the boys jump first.
Here is the finished product with balls inside. They love throwing the balls inside the trampoline because they bounce off of the net.
Michael's new soccer goal.
Michael has really improved with his soccer skills. In fact he now makes a goal every time he kicks the ball. His secret technique is that he will place the ball just inside the goal and then kick it. Works every time!
