my family has a habit of inventing our own games- we love to play cranium or balderdash or taboo but occasionally we feel bored with such common place activites and choose to embark on our own versions of family fun.... some of our memorable games of the past have been the historic 'disease game' , 'mosters in the pool' and ' fist in the mouth' a popular dinner time tryst!
this year we invented yet another winner- the scarf game. the scarf game began at grandma pats house, the night after thanksgiving, in her kitchen. allison was wearing her scarf wrapped around her neck and ryan commented that it would be easy for someone to walk up and strangle her with it. so ally said no- its easy to defend - you just shoot your hands up through the loop and push it over your head before the scarf tightens around your neck...make sense? ( probably not- im sensing this is one of those 'had to be theres' but it was too funny not too document- and seeing as i have pics i think it will be self-explanatory ...)
so they start challenging each other- basically the point being get the scarf off your head before the other person manages to choke you. yeah. haha so then of course we all want to try and next thing you know we are all peeing our pants with laughter as everyone tries to escape from the choke of their sibling or parent! haha we played it again at our other grandmas house and introduced it to our uncle and his wife. they have recently been married and she is from spain so they asked for pics for immigration to prove their wedding is 'legit' so i have some real winners for them to display some good old fashioned family bonding ( aka them trying to strangle each other!!) the best part was mom makes this choking noise to go along with it everytime without fail!!hahaha
