These three monkeys spend a lot of winter nights pulling out the sleeping bags and going for bumpy rides down the stairs. I don't know how they talk Lucy into these things but they do. Sometimes the stunts they pull going down and the speeds that are reached make it hard for me to watch. Like the time they went down with Canyon Laying on his belly and Ellie and Lucy riding him like a horse. Each time the bags get pulled out I hold my breath hoping there are sounds of life after the thudding stops. Every time I think of telling them to stop, I remember how much fun I had doing this when I was little. I just don't remember going down such crazy ways. So far we are 100% accident free. I'll be crossing my fingers it stays that way.

I loved doing that with the boys when I was little!

I remember doing that too. Funny how it just doesn't seem fun any more.

Yikes! We used to get cruising down the stairs in our home in Payson when I was a kid (the one across from the hospital). It was SO much fun. We have stairs here and my kiddos were scared to death to try that. Hah! Sissies....
