Ryan's Game Night

Ryan convinced me last week that he needed to have a game night with his buddies, so this past Friday we gathered his cousins and friends from the ward to play games and have snacks.

We had a rip-roaring game of "Do you love your neighbor" in which the kids played opposite what is usually done, they fought to be caught in the middle, often running in circles instead of sitting down.

We played "4 on a couch" which is a game Scott and I learned just recently and I discovered that it's a little tricky to play a competitive game with little kids who don't like to lose (Izzy screamed and Warren was close to tears). Despite that, they enjoyed the game.

My favorite time of the night (and I don't think I'm alone in this) was the air guitar concert. At first only Ryan and Isabelle wanted to participate, but little by little we had them all jamming to the August Rush soundtrack (so funny!).

It was a very fun night that I'm sure will be repeated many, many times in the future!
