Revenge of the Net!

Our last trampoline net was abused, then destroyed, at the hands of my seven-year-old daughter. Apparently, our newest net wasn't going down without a fight.

My captured daughter was half crying and half giggling during the five minute extraction. I know I am a mean mom, but I am grateful to have this picture, forever! All parties are now in excellent condition.

Grateful Mom Goal of the Year: I've already broken the goal from my last post, so from now on, I'm just appreciating the free entertainment.

Comment About Comments: I've received ~~two~~ numerous emails from people telling me my comment system hasn't been working this week. Uhg. Blogger says a fix should come shortly. We will see. :)
Have a great Memorial Day weekend!

Have a great holiday weekend! I'm sure it'll be full of blog worthy material for next week! :)

At May 28, 2011 at 10:40 AM , just me said...: That is too funny! I'm glad you take pictures. They will come in handy much later in life... "Remember this? And this? Yes, the retirement home with the spa will do just fine, thank you!"
At May 28, 2011 at 11:06 AM , Mrs. C said...: Blogger is killing me today! It didn't post my story length comment! Anyway long story short, THAT IS HILARIOUS! Have a great weekend.
At May 28, 2011 at 8:18 PM , Ruth said...: Oh fun! Well, not the tangling part, at least not for Dani... but the TRAMPOLINE! Have you had it long? We just had one given to us last week, and the kids LOVE it!
At May 28, 2011 at 9:10 PM , Unknown said...: Seriously need to learn from you about the picture taking .... I constantly regret not capturing events.
At May 28, 2011 at 11:56 PM , Mom of 12 said...: Ouch! That is why my trampoline doesn't have a net. Maybe falling off would have been less dangerous???

At May 29, 2011 at 9:26 PM , Karen Greenberg said...: Ah, it's okay to laugh at our kids once in awhile. That's part of the reason we had them, right?
:-0)
At May 30, 2011 at 8:57 AM , Unknown said...: I think ur daughter partly enjoyed it too, but start to cry when everyone laugh at her, still it makes to smile at it
At May 30, 2011 at 10:12 AM , Tatiana said...: I think I would have laughed really hard first, followed by telling her to hold on so I could take about 20 pictures, called anyone else so they could witness it too, and then helped her out. Maybe. Or maybe I would just have left her to figure it out on her own so I could laugh some more.
At May 31, 2011 at 11:59 AM , LBB said...: LOL! Can't beat the free entertainment! Great way to look at it :) I REALLY need to start looking at things that way!!
At June 2, 2011 at 3:40 PM , Charlotte said...: Trampolines and resulting entertainment are worth the cost of replacing parts. And possible even worth the broken bones. We are getting our new trampoline this month.
