Christmas Parties


The beautiful table setting at the dinner party

Friday night we had a lovely evening. We were invited to a Christmas party for Rich's work. The company was great, the food was delicious, I mean REALLY delicious, (it was catered by Marvelous Catering) and the music just made the evening. While we were eating a strings double quartet of BYU students played classical and Christmas music. After dinner we played pictionary, women vs. men. I was quite proud when I beat Rich in drawing "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus." Then later in the evening we met in a lovely library and enjoyed the vocal talents of 9 BYU singers singing Christmas songs in amazing harmony. And we received yummy gift baskets of holiday treats and the pretty flower arrangments on the table as we left for home It was just a lovely evening!


These lovely arrangements were our placecards


This picture does not do justice to the beauty of the arrangment!



All our gift goodies


Then Saturday morning was our Ward Christmas Party. We had another delicious meal ~ French toast from Magleby's, ham and hashbrowns.


Santa came and all the children lined up to get their treats


The Primary children sang and played chimes


Even the Bishop got to sit on Santa's knee!

You had a wonderful two parties, the one for work and the one for church. The Friday night one was surely beautifully decorated and the Saturday morning one just looked like FUN!
