Family Christmas Party 2007

Our family Christmas party was a lot of fun. First of all, it was just for the Adults which is rare and soooo enjoyable. :) We had a DYNAMITE dinner topped off with a little Martinelli's Apple Cider. Afterwards, we played games that I fell in LOVE with and I really want to turn them into a Christmas Tradition! :) The first game we played is the game in the pictures above.. it is one that many of you may have played before. My sister wrapped a CD several times in different sized boxes and used lots of tape!! (usually a large candybar is used) We all sat in a circle and had to pass a plate around with 2 dice (di? die?) and any time someone rolled a snake eyes, they had to hurry and put on a coat, scarf, hat and oven mitts and had to work at unwrapping the gift. As soon as someone else rolled a snake eyes, they had to quickly take the gear off and the new person had to put it on and see how far they could get unwrapping the gift. I was excited when I was the one to successfully unwrap it, because it was a Trans-Siberian Orchestra CD which was AWESOME because just a couple weeks prior, I had gone to their concert and it blew me away! :) Amazing!! :)
