Once Upon a Photo

The only thing that stinks about combining multiple entries per day is that it’s nearly impossible to think of a title that is interesting and makes sense for three different photos. Bah. So I’m going to switch things up a bit and make multiple posts per day (per day that I actually blog that is, which will not be every day). That way the titles will go with the pictures, and I won’t have to spend so much time thinking.

Day 13: Jan 13, 2009

The biggest attraction at our house, besides the new fish, is the Trampoline of Death. The net is long gone, but the poles are still jutting out at awkward angles, some broken off because the kids occasionally dangle from them. Essentially, it’s a pediatrician’s worst nightmare, and we require parents to sign waiver of liability before their kids are allowed in the backyard.

Now that the weather has finally remembered that it is indeed January, a winter month, the air is dry and the trampoline creates static electricity like nobody’s business – especially when you wear fleece and roll around on your head. This is Abby’s friend Maranda – but if you want to call her Abby, that’s ok, since everyone else does. For some reason their teacher is always mixing the two of them up, and random people ask if they’re twins (seriously!) or sisters. I don’t know – I just don’t see the resemblance.
