Fun with Pillows

Yesterday my kids stuffed pillows in their clothes and ran into each other.   What is it about this activity that is so fun?  


Even Z was stuffed.


I remember doing this as a kid.  We called it playing fat people, but T informed me that is not longer PC.

I couldn't find the picture of me (I know is out there, I can see it in my mind), but I found these of my older siblings and friends


and my younger siblings.

This made me laugh! It must be universal. Of course real fat people don't run around much and it kind of hurts them if they run into people.
Kurt has a really nice scanner and he has been scanning old pictures for his mom. I'd love to borrow all your old pictures and do the same. We could put them on disks for everyone in the family or put them online somewhere where we all could access. Would you let me borrow what you have? If you have time to gather them, I will be up Aug 8-10 and could bring them home with me.
Thanks- Love you sister Maria

This was one of my favorite games to play with my siblings, except we called it the "fat family." I guess that's not any more pc. About three months ago Michelle and I spent the night at the Goulden Nugget and I borrowed some pjs. The pants were to big so I stuffed the pants and shirt with all of the pillows from the spare room and ran downstairs. Carol then had to join in and we started wrestling. After about ten minutes we were pretty tuckered out, but then in bounded Jason all fatted out. It was hilarious as we all bounced around and jumped on each other.
