Some of you may be wondering what we've been up to since the new year has begun...well we rang in the new year with about 150 kids (high school and middle school) at our student ministry new years all nighter (8pm-8am). The night was filled with fun activities and games, which you'll get a glimpse of below. The night began with some ice breakers, a time to worship together and a message from Nima. Then it was time for some pizza to get everyone's energy up to ring in 2010! Here's the students counting down to 2010.
Watching the countdown in Times Square.
Happy New Year!
I LOVED THESE PHOTOS!!
They really captured the excitement and celebration that was taking place.
Then we kicked off the next 8 hours of entertainment!
Yummy snacks and drinks.
Games
Our inflatable obstacle course
The big game of musical chairs
The final two really wanted that chair!
One of our students trying to be TJ...he reminds me of a Peanuts character in this picture.
The leaders hanging out
Dodgeball...leaders against the students
A new addition to the fun this year was line dancing...we did the Cha Cha Slide, the Cupie Shuffle, the Electric Slide, the Macarena...pretty much every line dance we could think of.
This was my favorite activity of the night this year.
Still grooving
Carrying Nima around like Prince Ali...because he's Persian too.
A Serenade
Karaoke,
TJ was singing the girl part of A Whole New World with Nima as Aladdin on the magic carpet.
Red Rover
As you can see, there was plenty to do all through the night. It was a hilarious way to ring in 2010 and it's becoming quite the tradition. Even breakfast the next morning was HILARIOUS since I and a few of the other students and leaders who went were pretty delirious from not getting any sleep.
HAPPY BELATED NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
