The gift that keeps giving...

A few weeks ago my sister offered to give us this...

Yes, that's right, a fancy schmancy play gym. My parents got it for them 11 years ago and sadly her children just don't play on it anymore. It is still in great condition and my kids will be playing on it for years to come. Today the company that my parents originally bought it from came out and put it together for us. It only took them an hour to put it together and it would of taken my wonderful non mechanical husband TEN YEARS, so it was worth it. It is up and the kids are in heaven, as am I. Because to me, this play gym is a symbol of sanity my friends. Sweet, sweet sanity!

THANK YOU UNCLE DREW, AUNTY, ELI, ABBY, DOUG, SAM, NANNA and PAPPY!

WE LOVE IT!!

Good call having them assemble it for you. It took us WEEKS to put together a brand new one (it even came with a DVD instruction). Yay, they'll get a lot of use out of it!

Wow! I know how much you wanted one of those. I thought they were giving you a trampoline. . . is that coming at Christmas time? Your house will be like the neighborhood hot spot.
