Your story brings back good memories of when I grew up next to you in Monroe. We did everything you did and then some.

Our house was “the house” where kids from around the neighborhood would come to play. Basketball, football and baseball were the primary games that seemed to happen from sun up to sun down. During summertime we would make up our own Summer Olympic Games and then we had the Winter Olympics during the winter months. Some of the events would consist of timed laps around the house, shot-putting with a croquet ball, bench and chair hurdling, fastest sled time down a hill, shooting a puck and many others. 
Family room football was always a battle. Basically, the ball carrier had a 2yd. run to the couch and the defender had to stop him before he made it there. Either putting him to the floor or holding him up in place. Nerf basketball was also a constant where we picked a pro teams players and kept stats. 
Between the broken windows, broken siding shingles, lamps, knick knacks our parents were awesome letting a us be kids and understanding when things would break. 
Good times.
