Crash Pile

In the last chapter of Motherhood in the Trenches, Rachel talks about making a "crash pile" for her kids, and I totally borrowed the idea a few weeks ago when we were snowed in. The boys LOVED it! Here's how it works... you make a huge pile of pillows, comforters, throws, and any other miscellaneous soft blankets. Then show the kids their running route and tell them to take off!


Of course they are bound to get thirsty during all those sprints, so we set up a little refreshment table for between run thirst quenching. However Luke decided he needed a solid refreshment break.
