It's Party Time

So here goes the first of many Christmas posts to come.  This was our friend/neighbor party that we do every year.  Always a fun time but it is getting a lot harder to think of new fun and exciting games we can play.  Don't worry I searched long and hard and came up with several quite humorous ones.  The first was turning your partner into a snowman by using a full roll of toilet paper, a scarf, hat and a few circles for buttons.  



Once your snowman was completely built, together you had to sing "Once there was a Snowman". 



Our 1st place winners!

For our next game, each pair had to blow up 10 balloons,

 then stuff 5 balloons into each leg of a pair of nylongs,


Then put the nylons on your head and sing "Rudolf, the red nose Reindeer".  I also was going to have a red clown nose for each 'reindeer' but I couldn't find the safe spot I put them last.


 Of course we had a reindeer fight as well!




For our last game, we played christmas pictionary.  Instead of using dry erase markers, we used frosting instead.  We also were drawing lyrics to well-known Christmas songs instead of just christmas words.  It made it a little more difficult.  



Then of course we had our white elephant gift exchange.  This year I gave a fish.  It was a great gift which nobody wanted because we were all going out of town for Christmas so no one was going to be around to feed it!

Thanks to all our fantastic neighbors who aren't afraid to put nylon antlers on their head and be a little crazy.  We truly are lucky to live where we do!
