This is how this started...we have tried this with a twin mattress but it was just too tight of a fit. I had let my sister in law borrow a crib mattress a while ago and she was done with it...I really had no reason to pick it up because it was going to storage or to the DI. While I was driving...(I always get really great ideas while I'm in the car) I thought to myself...hmm I bet that crib mattress would be the perfect fit and it's slicker material. I picked up the mattress that night...Enoch went off to work and the mattress came out! Our house was built in the 70's (still remodeling and will be for the next 2 years...always a joy) so the stairs are pretty steep. As you can see we had some serious fun! It was a great way to destress! I laughed so hard! It seriously was hilarious! My kids loved it!
Crash Landing! We had a pile of blankets and pillows at the end of the stairs to help soften the landing and just in case we fell off, which we did a few times. But no serious injuries...mostly just sore stomaches from laughing so hard!

THAT IS AWESOME!!! We have stairs too and the boys have done this with their sleeping bags, which is really fun, but not a crib mattress. This one we have got to try!
LOL :) So much fun. I wish I was there to join in. Jake probably would pass though after the whole air mattress sledding experience. I miss my sister. I can't wait to see you in November and get a tan in Hawaii together :)
You guys are crazy! I might have to try that with my boys...I know they wouldn't object.
