weekend wrap-up 02.03.08

big game bash '08
take 450 hot dogs + 100 burgers + 80 bags of snacks + 30 dozen cookies/brownies + Rod's wings and surround it with 4 xbox 360s + 1 Wii + 2 ps 2s = big game bash the.evolution style fun yep...a crazy day. lots of fun. of course another attendance breaker. our total count for the nite was 250. i couldn't separate all the adults from the kids...they were all having too much fun. dozens of hotdogs...dozens of bags of chips...lots of soda and pop. guitar hero, dance dance revolution - disney style, Wii and of course 4 vs 4 halo 3... made it just fun. adam and the band (aka veneration) kicked things up a notch at the start. krista matteson won the ipod nano. she seems pretty amazed in the photo. i love it when parents are willing to step it up and show the can have some real fun too...even though their kids say its embarassing ...one mom, amy wilson (blue belt) decided to live it large and put on the sumo suit and tackle jace wolford.
during halftime we watched a great video about nfl 2007 mvp ladanian tomlison and kevin haggerty shared the invitation to join God's Story. it was very cool to see some 20 plus hands go up. and to top it off jackie selby and sandie stanton faced it off to wrap up a grand evening indeed ( see video below!)

thanks to all the folks that made this happen. new hope is such an amazing place.
