    As the party was winding down, after food, games, fun & fellowship, the party planning board and I gave out our favorite things. It started with each lady receiving a Christmas tote bag to take their loot home. They received Christmas candles, Russian Tea, Trail Mix, Popcorn & Hot Cocoa, Puppy Chow, Key Rings, Cupcakes, A flyer for a free 8x10 pic from our in-house photographer, more Christmas drink mix, nuts, fruit, etc. From me they received homemade Chocolate Martini Body Scrub.

  • Most Touching Moment

    When a beautiful Senior lady won money in a game and said she was going to buy a pair of jeans! And when most of the ladies said it was our best party yet.

  • Decor

    I clipped branches, spray painted them red and used them as centerpieces for the long banquet tables. I clipped two snow birds to each centerpiece and used cedar & holly springs. It was a cheap, yet beautiful effect! I received so many compliments on the centerpieces.
