Crazy Fun? Or Just Crazy?

We took Camden to Imagination Station in Lafayette on Saturday (after Home Depot) only to discover that it was closed for updates.  We headed over to the Tippecanoe Mall for a few purchases and to play in the indoor play area.  Camden made a few friends and as we were walking to a store, she spotted one of them on the bungee jump ride near Dick's.  She asked if she could do it.  We were headed to the other end of the Mall, so put her off and told her she could do it when she is older.  She often says she wants to do something, but when push comes to shove, she chickens out...so we thought that was the case.  We were wrong.  When we came back by, she asked again, and I could tell she really meant it.  Kevin gave me the "should we?" look and I pushed her a bit to make sure she would go through with it if we paid the money.  It appeared she was all on board.  So we let her do it!

She loved the trampoline and probably would have been content just jumping on it.


But they strapped her in and started it going.  She never hesitated one bit! 

I didn't realize that they control the height of the jump (although they make the kids think they are doing it), but she only wanted to go so high, so it was kept pretty tame at first.


But she got comfortable real fast (she is a daredevil once she is over the initial hesitancy on things) and soon was going higher and higher....


Her "wooo's" and "whoo-hoo's" made us all giggle.

When it's over, they are to land on their knees.  She was a pro!

It was crazy...FUN!
