Every year my college friends and I get together to celebrate the holidays and just reconnect again. This year was extra awesome because we did a White Elephant gift exchange. If you never played it before, it’s quite simple. Just bring a wrapped gift and each person takes turn opening one. The person that goes after has the option of stealing an opened gift or opening a new one, and so on. It’s quite fun. ;) The kids all got the gifts they wanted, and everyone had a blast. I had a fabulously memorable night! Thanks for planning Viv & Ann! :)

Wishing you and your families a happy and joyful holiday season! May your holiday celebration be filled with great memories. I can’t wait to see you in 2010! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Love,

The traffic to The Grove wasn’t too bad. There was just a long line waiting to get into the parking structure. We got there a little after 5pm so we were still quite early!
After we parked and looked down to see the stage, I was just in awe. The lights and decorations were magnificent! I was immediately filled with Christmas spirit!
As I went down each flight of escalator, I could feel the excitement building up! We walked down the red carpet and into this Winter Wonderland… wow, lots of sparkling lights, Santa’s workshop, and giant lolipops!
Next to Santa’s workshop was The Band From TV’s booth. I wanted the cd! And lucky me, they had autographed ones! So I got that and they gave me a raffle ticket to fill out.
