I manage a country homestead and the lives of my 4 babies ages 10,8,5 and 3. I LOVE TO RUN and NEED to keep healthy and fit for my SANITY!! Seriously....All problems are solved when I am running.

Making MY health a priority allows me to be the mother and wife that I need to be for them.

The 3 F's .....Family, Fitness, and Fun


I am NOT a fan of fancy equipment for kids. In fact I really am all about allowing kids to just play and use things from the natural environment. I believe that because of that my kids have amazing imaginations, and can really 'play' and entertain themselves.  

That being said....

My oldest girl just turned 10 and has been asking for a trampoline for a few years now.  Her wish came true on her birthday and I am so happy we got it.  I figured that if we don't use it, we can always sell it later on.  However it is the BEST THING!!!

Talk about Family FUN !!! ..... and talk about family FITNESS !!!

I'll tell y'a, bouncing on that thing for 20 minutes is a sweaty good time.

WARNING.... It's all fun and games until mom pee's herself ;)

I have no comment other than to say there is no shame in, after delivering children, one pees just a little, while on that trampoline...best thing we ever purchased, hands down...

of course now as the boys get older, it is more of a wrestling ring that a trampoline, but whatever.....

As I do recall - you and I bounced on a trampoline together the night before your wedding!
