Wednesday 10th September
So, I cleared the area to put the new trampoline.... and I thought that would be the hardest part.......
Apparently Not... the hardest part was trying to work out how it went together with only 4 steps shown in the instructions.... and one of them was "make a circle with the top pieces" - and the diagram for how to do that, related to different pieces.... so.... it became a job of "lets guess and see what happens!"
Gradually we were getting things together.....
Holly and I had missed a pump class for this, but we figure that we got enough of a workout anyway!
Jade enjoyed "helping"
Once it got to putting the mat on - we figured we had it sorted.... we're very clever you know!
Jade supervised from underneath.....
She was happy to be our helper when it came to testing out the trampoline.....
We were very pleased with the job we'd done with putting these on..... little did we know we'd missed a step... there were plastic protectors hidden in the one box - and the instructions for putting these on before putting the mat on - INSIDE the bag of protectors - that were hidden inside the Padding box.... (oh yeah, I don't see the logic either!)
Then to put it into place.... Rob was concerned that a 16ft trampoline wasn't going to fit where we'd had our old 15ft trampoline... but I knew better (I usually do!)
Holly decided to test it with Jade.....
Then it was time to attempt to put up the netting.... Oh, and we thought that we'd done all of the hard work... apparently we were wrong... AGAIN
It's complete!!!!!
It's an amazing size :)
The kids approve!
