Pillow Wars

Pillow fighting at this house is dirty business. Competition is fierce and the children have been coached by their father on proper technique for maximum damage. You must first stuff the pillow all the way to the bottom of the case and then wind the pillowcase tightly, making each connection a fierce and painful blow. Listen close and you can hear both girls claiming alliance with Scott's team. Disclaimer: No children were harmed, maimed or bruised in this video and never mind the shirtless 7 year old - apparently she was overheated. Note to overnight guests - you may want to bring your own pillows:)

ah yes, I think I have been at a pillow fight at your house. Certain rules must be understood.
#1. Pillows must be shaken down so that all of the fluff is in one end, then the top of the pillow case twisted to keep it there and the pillow turns into a deadly weapon.
#2. No area of the body is off limits.
#3. Somebody will cry, and that will not excuse them from the rest of the pillow fight.

sounds fun, can I come over?

Why do you think I am the one behind the camera - and am safely positioned behind a chair? Strange thing is, the (brain damaged) children will beg for another pillow fight soon.

I refrain from using Mom's old phrase (when we were rough housing), "Someone's gonna get hurt - someone's gonna end up crying." But this session did not end in tears - I think it ended in exhaustion.
