December 15

It's everybody's favorite: Breakfast Night!

The Smiths will be bringing a plethora of Christmas cookies for dessert. (Because hey, even though we're eating breakfast, it's still technically dinner. So, even a "dinnerish" breakfast needs dessert. :) )

Hope to see everyone there!

Needed: Milk & OJ

If anyone would like coffee, let me(Mike) know.

Christmas Party - Dec. 13

Just another way to keep everyone updated...

Remember, we will play dirty Santa with white elephant gifts. Dirty Santa is a format for choosing gifts. Here are the rules.

1. Each couple playing the game brings a wrapped gift so there is no indication about what is inside. Place gifts together under the tree or on a table.

2. Someone writes a number on scrap pieces of paper for every gift and places them in a basket, bowl or hat.

3. Each couple draws a number. Getting a higher number is actually better because you will have more opened gifts to choose from.

4. The couple with #1 picks a gift to open from the pile. The couple with #2 can choose to open another package or steal the gift from #1. If a gift is stolen, the person who had it then steals from someone else or picks another gift to open.

5. The game continues like this until everyone takes a turn opening or stealing a gift. The last person to go can steal from anyone in the game or open the remaining gift.

6. Once a gift is stolen three times (which is the fourth owner), it is retired from the game.

7. You cannot steal what was just stolen from you.

8. Do you want to play where #1 goes again at the end or not?



Each couple will need to bring one white elephant gift. A white elephant gift is kind-of like recycling or regifting. Think of it as being a good steward. ;)

Below are some examples.

1. Something you already own that is new or gently used in good working condition, and you no longer need or use the item

2. A gift you received that is a decent gift but you don't need or like it or couldn't return it

3.A gift you bought for someone and never gave it to them or have forgotten about
