A crazy childhood story!!!


I only have a little bit of time to write this, but i just found out something way awesome. In my childhood memory i wrote on facebook i wrote that i remember jumping on the trampoline with some of my grandma's neighbors who were LDS. Well, i found out who they are! On sunday i went with my friend Marry to her house after church. Her niece Helen had just gotten blessed and so i got to meet Helen's dad and mom. Well, Monday, i went to FHE at the Institute and they passed out directions to Sam's house. I found out he lives on the same street as my grandma. I called my grandma, and guess what! The house where Sam lives is where my sister and I used to jump on the trampoline. When his wife Anna and her 9 siblings were kids, they lived in that same house. My grandpa actually built that house. Anyways, The trampoline was too big for the backyard and so they kept it in my grandparents backyard. I remember going to that house and asking if one of the kids was there and if they wanted to jump on the trampoline. I loved the trampoline and that is where i learned to do a front flip and play crack the egg. That might've been the first trampoline i had been on. I got a sticker or well thorn in my toe after playing on that trampoline one day. I do not remember any of the kids names or faces who i used to play with then. I think they were around my age and my sister's age. I didn't know they were LDS until after i joined the church. I think i will be going to that house on friday for a movie night. Wow! I will have to talk to Anna about this discovery. My friend is actually married to one of anna's brothers! I will have to talk to them too! Childhood memories. Majority of the family that lived there was at my friends house on Sunday and i didn't even know that or recognize them. I only knew probably 2 of the kids and the only contact my sister and i had with them was because of their trampoline. I think i went into their house once. So maybe it will look the same when i go. I just know it was cluttered or well it had a lot of stuff. Not exactly cluttered i guess you can say. That is totally weird!
