We had our first annual ornament exchange yesterday. DD1 had it at her house and there were 10 of us.
So much fun. Everyone took a number and then took turns either picking a wrapped ornament or stealing someones opened ornament. I brought home a cut 'disco ball' type ornament that will really illuminate the tree's lights.
We had some fun dips, cookies and drinks (hot cocoa, coffee or pink champagne).
DD1s MIL offered to host next years exchange...and she and I are on a mission to come up with the cutest ornament next year...I love a good competition...about as much as I love whimsy and fun...she has met her match...'cause I play to win!
All kidding aside, I am looking forward to making this an annual event...especially with all my grown kids just starting on thier ornament collections!
And the event was fairly frugal. The cost of the ornament...which is usually under $5...and everyone brings an easy snack or drink. Too fun.
