The Realm Christmas Party

This is a shout out to everyone who came on Wednesday night to the 

Realm Christmas Party!  

It was an awesome night!  

The 7th grade girls know how to party... and how to dress christmassy, too!  Michelle, Rebecca and Anna would have to be considered for the fabulous Christmas sweater awards!!!

... although, Hannah's sweater would definitely win an award, too!!!

Emilie and Emily were having fun and showing their Christmas spirit, too!!!

Kyle, Mason and Jacob

Andrew started out the night by reading the Christmas story to everyone!

And then, some amazing Human Presents!!!

That's Reed!

Kirstin, as a Human Present!

Nathan is peeking out of his wrapping!!!

Adam's all rolled up!!!

And then there was the White Elephant Gift Exchange!  It was so fun to see what everyone brought and what you got to go home with.  I have to say the worst gift was the half used roll of toilet paper-- who brought that?  But there were also some great gifts that got stolen so many times!  What a fun game!  If you got to go home with something cool... like the monkey on the surf board or the carton of a million fishy crackers... hope you enjoyed your cool gift!  If you were someone that got the half used roll of toilet paper, or the paper plate, save it until next year and bring it around again for the Great White Elephant Gift Exchange of 2009!!

The night was so fun!  Nathania agrees!  Awesome Christmas party!

MERRY CHRISTMAS
