2007 Christmas Party

Tristin welcomed her Childfree firends into her house for this years Christmas party. With festive decorative lights strewn everywhere and a burning log DVD playing on the TV, the scene was set for a great party and our infamous "white elephant" gift exchange. We all wondered whether the Wow-cow would make its third annual appearance, but several folks spotted Dave & Lyn (last years Winners of the Wow-cow) trying to sneak a large package onto the table.

For this years most stolen gifts, we had several clocks that changed owners, but the big excitement was a purple hand knitted scarf opened by Jerrie - which was promptly grabbed in turn by Jerry, Judy, Keisha, Judy again - who won it in the end? Find out.

At the very end, with one large, heavy box on the table and no Wow-cow revealed, the last round became vicious as people were stealing gifts, hoping to avoid going to the table to open the ominous box that would occasionally rattle on its own. But there was an extra surprise lurking in the last box...

Tristin, the hostess, looking very seasonal.	What happens at Tristin's - stay at Tristin's.	Come rain or snow, I will get to the party!	Its meant to freeze tonight!
We Men - We find food!	We women - we bring food.	Strategizing about the gift exchange.	OK, so how do you dissect a trifle?
Presents! Presents!	Marvin - Wake up! Its almost time.	Deep calming breaths - as Judy carefully explains the rules!	OK - I know the Wow-cow is around here somewhere!
Nothing says Christmas like Darth Vader.	My favorite Vintage.	Look Honey - I got Christmas dinner.	Are the batteries included?
A Practical gift?	I'm too sexy for this scarf!	Are you my Mommy?	This is how you wear a scarf!
Keisha steals from Judy - you realize this means WAR!	The new fashion - Clocks as Hats.	This is so the story of my life.	"Gimme that!" - Dale reconsiders sitting next to this fight.
erm, its Christmas - not Easter.	She looks happy with her prize!	You - Hand over the gift and no one gets hurt!	Is there a family resemblance?
I think that heel would suit you.	This year, Matt plays it safe and steals a clock for his office.	You have a comment Dave?	No - I'm in the witness protection program!
Actually, I kinda like it.	This will look so cool in our house.	Keep still - something just climbed out of the Wow-cow!	Victory is MINE!
You seem to have something crawling on you.	A final chance to catch up on the gossip.	Aren't you the cutest widdle bug in the world!	You had doubts about who'd eventually get the Muppet-fur scarf ?
