Pulling an All-nighter
Friday night Travis and I went with our youthgroup to an all-night event called the Word of Life Superbowl. I've been a bunch of times with my old youth group but this was my first time being a leader. We each had a group, I had 6 girls and Travis had 7 boys and Travis drove one of the vans. First we went to see the Manchester Monarchs hockey game. It was fun but they ended up losing by 1 in a shoot-out. After all the youth groups stayed in the arena while everyone else left. They had a short message and then played some games where the kids could win prizes. A lot of the kids in our group got up after the message to talk to counselors about salvation and a few filled out a form that said they had accepted Christ. After that we went to an indoor sports complex around 1am. There were some blow-up games and also football, soccer, and dogeball. We also got free pizza. At 3am we left for bowling and stayed there until 6am. It was a looong night but it was still fun. When we got home we slept until about 12ish and then forced ourselves to get up so we would sleep that night. We must have been more tired than we thought because neither of us woke up to the alarm this morning and ended up missing church! We ended up going on a boat ride with my dad. It was freezing!! We only saw one other boat on the lake while we were out there so that was cool. We are going to get on the webcam soon so we can talk to our niece Riley.
