We spent the evening doing fireworks and playing games. We have been playing lots of games this last week, because we got a lot of games for Christmas. To celebrate New Years Eve we played Flinch, Qwirkle cubes, Mancala, Quelf, Out Balance, and Connect 4x4. Brett tried really hard to make it to midnight, but he was happy that he stayed up later than 9:30 when he thought he would fall asleep. The other kids got bored at about 11:15 but could not be convinced to go to bed until the New Year arrived. No resolutions set yet...we will follow tradition and set goals for the year on Monday night. We wish all our friends and family all the happiness they can stand in 2010!
Paige did a science fair project on hovercrafts and won third place. She will now get to go to the region science fair next month.
Ty tried out and made it into the region honor band. There were two bands and Ty was 5th chair alto sax in the second band. They practiced all together on Friday and Saturday morning and played a concert Saturday afternoon.
Bryce made it on to the quiz bowl team again this year. He really enjoys the practices, but wishes he was just a little faster on the buzzer. He also was surprised at how few members of the team knew the bible questions.
