Sibling Gift Exchange

December 23, 2018
Brit and Adam are always amazing hosts of the sibling (plus Mom and Dad) gift exchange.  We had a delicious dinner of ham, beans, potato salad, veggies, chips, dips and more, a delicious hot chocolate bar, decorated sugar cookies and crazy games.  Beck and Brian couldn't come...baby due in 8 days.  We missed them but had a lot of fun as a family with just the adults.

I had to include a picture of Brit's mantle.  Her home looked so warm, Christmas-y, and inviting. (Those are our gifts haphazardly placed for the upcoming swap.)

Usually we do a white elephant type gift exchange but Britney mixed it up this year with a roll of the dice game.
Lots of fun gifts brought.  Some I remember are: zero gravity outdoor chairs, echo dot, luggage, DNA kit, wireless headphones, folding table,bar-b-que sauces, travel cubes/travel supplies, large shade canopy and more!
Dan (not a sibling...but a very nice extra guest that Nate brought.  He was fun but mild and fit right in without it being awkward.) Nate, Beth, Chris & Ang




I love this picture of Beth!  It was an intense game of passing the wreath from neck to neck...no hands allowed.

Mom, Ang, me, Bri and Dad were a team for the night.  We stunk!  I think we earned .5 points...but we had fun.

Quetta and Brit shaking the jingle bells out of the Kleenex box.

Me and Dan...I lost...and almost fell flat on my rear from shaking my booty so hard.
These actions shots are the bomb.

Ang and Nate



Hershey Kiss toss.  This group was supposed to catch the kisses in their mouths w/o using hands.

The throwers.  

Victory!
We were in three teams and had to blow up balloons and stuff them in pantyhose to make reindeer antlers.
It was much harder than you'd expect.
Brit, Grandpa & Kerry
Awe....we clean up nicely.  Lft-rt: Kerry & Quetta, Adam & Brit, Chris & Ang, Brian & Erin, Dad & Mom, Nate & Beth
