Friend Christmas Party

This year the annual girlfriend Christmas party was at our home we had great food and a good time. This party started probably back in 2003 a bunch of us single girls who hung out all the time started our annual party with always having a memorable white elephant game. The above picture has Annmaree, Uyen, Kelli and Mikko in it. (Men are now invited to the party)
Here is Michelle, Lori and Amy. Michelle for the past few years has added a fun game she buys all these great gifts, some are great, some are funny and we roll dice to see if we get to pick a present. When all the gifts are gone we open the ones we chose and then we go around 3 more times and roll the dice and we have a chance to steal others gifts. It is great fun, there usually is one or two gifts that are always being stolen. This year it was a potpourri set and a 80's trivial pursuit game. We won the game in the end yeah!!

Kaleb was a ham of course, he loves it when there are guests in the house he was rolling the dice for everyone. He would hold the dice and shake his arms around for the shake and then drop the dice and he was pretty good. He actually got doubles and 7's for the participants more than they did. And when he rolled the double or 7 we would all cheer and then he would just go crazy and laugh and dance around.
This was the winning gift for the white elephant game. Kristy made some Pad about slippers, it was pretty funny! They would last about 1 minute as real slippers.
