As I was doing some laundry, I heard frantic screams and a loud, falling, crashing noise. My heart went straight to my throat as I ran to find out who had died. That's when I realized it was screams of excitement coming from my children who were riding on a mattress down our basement stairs. Instead of freaking out, I decided to get the camera. (Ignore the nasty-looking stairs).

Such fun and grey hairs indeed! Reminds me all too much of when my sister rode her folding foam futon-like chair/bed thing(remember those?)down the stairs on her birthday and ended up in the ER with a concussion. Hopefully your little ones will be much more careful in their adventures!
Flashback! We used to do that when we were little, but we had to slum it with a giant cardboard box, no fancy mattress for us ;)
My cousin and I used to drag each other down the stairs in blankets and sleeping bags :) I can't say it didn't affect us mentally :) At least they had cushion! :)
Joel used to do this kind of stuff when he was little - only he forced his nephews and nieces to do it while he watched.
This is great. We used to do it with our sleeping bags.
I used to do that when I was a kid! Love it..so hard to be mad at the kids when they do things you used to do!
You ROCK sista! Snort!
You are such a great Mommy....I think I might have freaked out first - thought of the camera later! ;)
