Memories of the bright Green House

Hot Deck - where Sarah used to lay out, we used to run around until our feet were burning and then take turns in the plastic tub of water, just big enough for one pair of feet, to cool off before we jumped back in the circle of children running in a circle yelling 'hot deck!'

Back-room Forts - we would build forts out of the entire room. A hanger was poked through the blanket and hung on the ceiling light. At my young age I felt like it was a castle and the ceilings were 20 feet tall.

Scramble - Sarah and Rachel (and Hannah, when she could get her way) would line up and we would do flips over and over as fast as we could.

Mannheim Steamroller - we would create an 'obstacle course' around the living room (basically you run around the edge of the room, jumping onto any piece of furniture that was in the way) and turn on Mannheim Steamroller and see how fast we could all run. I'm sure we all sustained minor injuries from that game...except Gideon, of course, his head was a cinder block.

Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken - I was always the blind girl and Rachel was always the horse. We always playing the 'dive scene'.

Capture - no explanation needed.
