Deck The Halls

Activity #2
This weekend was filled with lots of Christmas joy. I started the fun filled weekend out by hosting a little Christmas movie night and some delicious hot chocolate. Sarah, Angie, Russ and Kailee came over to Nanny's house to enjoy the evening with me. We started out by watching classic Christmas favorite The Christmas Story. It was so much fun to hear the laughing and everyone chiming on what their favorite part was. We then went to the kitchen we I set up a hot chocolate bar. It had all the trimmings which included the ready made hot chocolate, pirouettes, marsh mellows, candy canes, white chocolate mints , cookies and some chocolate covered spoons. Who could ask for more?!? :D Then we continued our movie watch with The Santa Clause with Tim Allen. Two of my favorite Christmas movies. I love this time of year!


  The next day was spent running around town to get ready for our Annual Friends Christmas Party. Sarah and I were co-hosting it at her club house. We had such a wonderful turn out and thanks to Kristie and her family. The decorations were to die for! The evening included a wonderful dinner that everyone helped with, a super fun and yet intense partners wrapping present game (Thanks Becky!!) and a "name that candy bar" game (Thanks Kristie...again!).  We concluded with a $1 white elephant exchange. Very interesting gifts were received which is needless to say. I always enjoy spending time with my friends and am very grateful for everyone of them.
