Our Holiday Party - Dec 6, 2008

Jason and I hosted a Holiday Party on Saturday, Dec 6th. We had a lot of good food, drinks and played a gift game called "Let's Make a Deal." Each guest drew a number and then unwrapped the gift under the tree that also had that number. They could then "make a deal" with other guests and trade for something they liked better. However, there was a catch. Periodically throughout the night we announced "grand prize" winners based on which gift they were currently holding (and usually the grand prizes went along with the "not so nice" gifts) :-) Grand prizes ranged from giftcards to Target, Meijer and Red Lobster or the option to draw another gift from underneath the tree.

The game seemed to be a great icebreaker and fun was had by all. We also entertained with some performances with Guitar Hero and RockBand. Even with the snow we had a great turn-out and look forward to the next get-together with our Michigan friends!

Here are some pictures of our decorations and party:
