Happy New Year!!

What a fun time we had on New Year's Eve...we hosted a "pizza-rager" at our house for our Young Life kids. We ended up with about 20 showing up. Good times! We played Wii, Apples to Apples, Catchphrase, and had an all-around great time.
By midnight we (and by "we", I mean the adults) were BARELY awake and ready for bed.

The young-ones thought they'd have no problem staying up all night...some of them didn't make it to the end. :)
After sending the boys to the Young Life house (where they stayed up until 4 playing basketball in the gym) and the girls to Stephanie's house (where they stayed up until 3 chatting and laughing) everyone came back to our house for an amazing brunch! They devoured two pans of baked french toast, two pans of hash brown & ham cassarole, 4 packages of bacon and lots of Costco muffins...oddly enough there is a ton of cut up fruit still on the platter...hmmm... (to the parents of these kids...we tried!! :)

We're currently watching football, movies, some are dozing off and spending time relaxing. What could be better??

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

I love that you guys did this! You're such good YL leaders! :)

P.S. Fruit is totally over-rated!

You two are so wonderful for opening your home to these kids- they will remember you and these events for years to come! Love Hailey's bedding- she's such a cutie.
