February is the month of love, so house games were held at Guardian Angel in Oran with the theme of "love" on February 16. The first game was "Love Connection" and 4 house members on each of the 3 teams were timed to see how many broken hearts could be repaired. In other words, each team had 7 hearts that were cut in half in different designs and had to be placed back together correctly...

St. Michael's members, Sadler Mattingly, Dylan Levan, Everett David, and Baker Mattingly are ready to jump in and put the broken hearts back together as the other members of the house sit to the side.

February is the month of love, so house games were held at Guardian Angel in Oran with the theme of "love" on February 16.

The first game was "Love Connection" and 4 house members on each of the 3 teams were timed to see how many broken hearts could be repaired. In other words, each team had 7 hearts that were cut in half in different designs and had to be placed back together correctly.

The next game was "Fill Up My Heart". Seventy pieces of candy were placed in a bowl for each team. Five members of each house took turns rolling a die and then moving that number of candies from that bowl to another. Each person could use only one hand to roll the die and to move the candy. This was also a timed game to see who could get the most candies moved from one bowl to the next.
