small GROUP Christmas party

My husband said that small groups should party, so while he was away that is exactly what ours did. And wow did we have fun! We started with yummy food old fashioned southern baptist potluck style. Michal had a game for the kids and then a game for everyone. There are pictures of all of that. Then we played an awesome game with just the adults that Zeke and Wendy taught us. It is called Family, I can't describe it on here with out confusing it, so just ask sometime. I had a blast with ya'll Wed night and I love that I can call you my church family.

This game was really cute. Evertime Michal said "and" or "the" while reading The Night Before Christmas, the kids passed the presents. Isaac tried to hold onto the present each time he got one, Bryson didn't hold onto a present but just passed it continually, and Addie and Ryan were convinced the bags were better presents than the wrapped tubes so they tried to get a bag with each pass. Really cute idea!

This is the other game. Each team had to blow up balloons and then stuff them into panty hose. Then the team captains had to put them on and say Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Ryan and Addie were team captians. Here is Team Ryan stuffing.

Team Addie was declared the winners

Ryan as Rudolph

Then pretty much everyone wanted to be Rudolph.
