Trampoline late night

We had our "late night" on the trampoline this week as part of our Summer Bucket list. I heard the idea of doing "late nights" instead of sleepovers from a friend. I think it's genius! The kids love staying up super late and it works well since they are too little for sleepovers.
So we took pillows, blankets, flashlights, lots of treats and books and headed out to the tramp.

We spent the first little while eating out treats. The kids each got to pick one treat from the grocery store special for our late night. They both picked "N & M's". After lots of treats and popcorn we jumped around for a while. The kids loved jumping and running around. They loved it even more when Kyle jumped and bounced them around. They had lots of fun showing us their tricks too.
After jumping it started to get dark so we got our books and flashlights out. We read a few books and then decided to just lay there for a little bit. We listened to the crickets and counted the stars. It was such a fun night and we had so much fun! The kids loved spending the time out there all together. We had a blast and made some good memories. I am pretty sure we will make it a yearly tradition!
