NAPLES, FLA. - A Naples family has quite the story to tell when they caught a couple of uninvited guests bouncing around on their trampoline. 

A couple of black bear cubs found the trampoline in Jennifer and Paige Pacheco's backyard not too hot, not too cold, but just right. 

Jennifer and her daughter Paige could not believe their eyes as they watched the scene from their porch, so they immediately pulled out their cell phone. 

"Grab my phone and start videoing it because it was a sight to be seen." said Jennifer. 

The one family member who did seem to mind the intruders was the Pacheco's trusty hound, Sheldon. "He was barking and then we looked back there and there was the two bears." said Paige. 

The bears played for more than a half an hour before they eventually bounced themselves out. 

Jennifer says she hopes it isn't too tall of a tale to tell- and are very happy they have the cell phone footage to prove the story to their friends and family at their next family gathering.
