The family Christmas party was held Dec. 20th. Randy and Lorraine hosted the party this year. Their were lots of activities for the little ones and good food for us big ones. Each family was asked to perform a song. Our family chose to do Jingle Bells blowing into pop bottles. I was relieved when Lacey and Chris arrived at the house from Oklahoma in enough time to figure out the notes we needed. Then we filled the bottles accordingly. It was fun and sounded pretty good. Randy and Lorraine's family performed to the 12 days of Christmas on CD in the dark with glow sticks which was fun to watch. Lu Ann and Mark and the rest of the gang also did a song in the dark with glow sticks. Activities for the kids were Tic Tack Toe, fishing pond, decorating cookies and getting a picture taken. We always end our parties with a gift exchange while reading of the Left -Right story. Grandma Cook gave each of the great grand kids a personal little desk with a storage compartment. The desk slides onto the storage where they found books, crayons, markers and of course Candy. Thank you Lance for helping mom out and making all the desk tops. I remember when our ward did them on a Super Saturday activity in 1985. Some of my kids still have theirs and use them for storage or art supplies. They were a great gift. Thank you Randy and Lorraine for hosting this year. It is a lot of work.
