Every year people dread the church Christmas party- the bad food, tacky music, even tacky-er (if that’s even a word) decorations, kids running around (obviously an entire orphanage was invited- because it appears there are no parents) and then no one stays to clean up.
This year our ward Christmas party turned out great!! The decorations were so super cute. The music was kinda tacky BUT they had a dance floor and dancing- which was so much fun and right up my ally. Jesse (Ben’s brother) was in charge of the food and it was EXCELLENT. It was a full out turkey dinner, organized and served well. Well done Jesse!! There was a section of Christmas carols with guitar accompaniment. It was fun, short and entertaining. The kids were entertained with crafts in the back and just when things got a little too crazy, who showed up but the fat, jolly man himself- SANTA CLAUSE!! Some people even stayed to help clean up. It was a great night with friends, family, food, dancing, Santa…need I go on?
Maybe my Scrooge outlook on Ward Christmas parties is beginning to change.

Your ward Christmas party was so much cuter than ours...We had decorations that made it look like a Mexican Hacienda complete with tacos for dinner and sombreros filled with chips as centerpieces...haha but the cool thing was that one of the converts played santa clause, he is one of the coolest old men in the ward and he looked so legit with his real beard and plump belly, it made the party all worth it just so he could be santa clause
