All Nighter.

Friday night Phil had an "all nighter" at the church with our Jr. High Catechism students. They have such an amazing ability to consume food and to not need sleep. They played some games and went over to the school to run around in the gym. Then came back to the church to eat more and continue to not require sleep.

Here are some of them not sleeping.

Musical chairs was a lot of fun!


Poor Drake never had a chance.


By 3:30 Phil and I, not being Jr. High kids, were pretty useless just waiting for 7am and a nice soft bed. I only made it until 4. Phil's the real hero of this story.

He put a movie on and to his surprise the kids became sleepier and sleepier finally drifting off to sleep. Then he made them all get up and clean up their mess.
