Church Activities

Mike Archbold, the YM President, warned us mothers not to tell our boys what the combined activity was going to be which was probably wise. When the young men found out that they were going to be learning how to dance and would have to hold hands with the young women -gasp - half the deacons ran out of the gym and had to be rounded up. Despite the rough start, it ended up being such a fun night, with (almost) full participation from the youth. We had a few unhappy looks but most of them picked up quite quickly on all the moves and had no problem swinging their partners around the floor. The pictures are great but the videos are even better; wish I could post those!

Dancing with your sister isn't so bad. Noah was one of the deacons who quickly got over the awkwardness of it all and enjoyed learning the moves.

When the young women outnumber the young men, you do what you got to do!

My little dance partner!

Noah's got some smooth moves!

Even Xander had a fun time...I think...

Another fun activity for February was heart attacking the bishop as well as a few of our less active girls. We had a table set up where we could write fun messages on hearts...

and then a table for writing nice things about each other.

Sweet messages for our bishop!
