E Family Christmas Party 2010

Last weekend, we had the opportunity to host the E family Christmas party! It was a blast! Everyone showed up on Friday. We had a girls' night out where the sisters and sisters-in-law went to Olive Garden and then did a little shopping at the mall. It was a lot of fun hanging out with the girls! The men stayed at home with the kids and ate pizza and brownies. After getting home, Kim, Holly, and I went to Target and Walmart - we ended up getting home after midnight! Ha ha!

After breakfast on Saturday, we headed to the church to play some games! We played lightning, kick ball, and dodge ball. It was a ton of fun because all the kids could play (I mean, except for the baby)! It was awesome!

For lunch we had hot dogs and brats -mmmmmm! The afternoon was filled with naps, playing with cousins, treats, making cards for Grandma and Grandpa, and making gingerbread houses out of graham crackers.

Everyone came for dinner - we had lasagna (regular and chicken!), green beans, garlic bread, green salad, and fruit dip (thanks Kimmy!). It was yummy.....

After dinner, we played games, had some spiritual thoughts by Scottie, opened presents, skyped with mom and dad, ate lots of snacks, received white elephants, and just hung out and chatted. It was great to have everyone there and to spend time with the peeps (especially the kids!).

It was a short but sweet weekend! Everyone took off for home on Sunday. It was great spending time with the fam!
