College Christmas Party

This year we had the pleasure of having six college students come to our house for a Christmas party. We enjoyed food, games, crafts, and more. We thought we would just share a few of the highlights from the party with you all:


 Food: We decided to have little barbecued weenies (against my better judgement... all hot dog products should be band) and Nelson decided that putting on the ham sandwiches I made was the best idea ever. Why might you ask is this the best idea ever? Because it tastes like a McRib sandwich. This was first of all not a selling point (who likes a McRib sandwich??) and secondly we have always wondered who those people where who were keeping the McRib on the McDonald's menu anyways.

Games: We enjoyed two games.The first was a present unwrapping game. We only had one girly gift wrapped up and of course one of our guys was nearly stuck with it. Luckily Colleen stepped in and cheated so he would have a chance at something more unisex. Our second game of the night was Catchphrase. None of our students had ever played before but by the second pass around the circle everyone was a pro and loving it! The best clue of the night had to have been when I, Laura said she's a female singer and Joyce immediately answered correctly with Maria Carey!

Crafts: We decorated a gingerbread house together. There was absolutely no game plan anything went as far as they were concerned. The first piece of candy to get glued on was the snow man on the roof. We'll just say it was very Picasso like.... (interestingly ugly)


More: Steve and I have been working on a 2,000 piece puzzle since the day Christmas break began and it is currently taking up our entire coffee table. We were so happy to have many pieces put together by our students. It is now a much more put together mess taking up our coffee table.
