Holiday Meeting


December's first Stitch In meeting featured an ornament exchange. Some of the ladies handcrafted beautiful one of a kind creations. We played the game "Tricky Santa". The game goes like this: Each participant draws a number. The person who gets #1 opens the first wrapped gift. Everyone gets a good look; the person holding #2 can steal gift #1 if she really likes it or proceed to open another gift. The game continues with everyone taking turns stealing or just picking another gift from the table.

Shelia, one of our facilitators gave all those in attendance goody bags filled with small gifts (snowman soup, rice crispy snowman, a mini snowman scene ornament, a clementine orange, candy etc...) She sure made everyone feel special. She's been a perfect elf, everyone will agree with me.
