Red Neck Rollercoaster

These are pictures my Mom took when we were visiting with her this week. I use wicker laundry baskets at my house and therefore do not allow the boys to play with them. After being allowed to play with a laundry basket and plastic stool at Grammy's house, I think I know what both boys will be asking for Christmas. They had a blast! Who knew something so simple could be so much fun?
