Christmas Party At My House!

This morning I was up late! Couldn't believe I was up on time! Got up and ran around getting everything ready for when the gals come. I also ran downstairs and put another bag together to give away. I wrapped the present and had that ready for more gifts. Then I waited. Cherry called to say she was running late. Raymond had called her about the train accident and how he was close to where it happened. He was having trouble getting to Tacoma. (It took him 4 hours to get home - lives next door - because of having to detour). I waited and then Sandy showed up. She's the one from Ocean Shores. It was a good 20 mins before the others started coming. All have excuses for being late. It was funny! Then Georgie and Sandy forgot their embroidery. So, they ran back home to get their stuff.

When everyone arrived, we worked on our embroidery. Then it was noon before we realized it. Pot luck time!

After our potluck we had a gift exchange. It was a blast because it was a "right" and "left" exchange. Phyllis told a story and every time she said "right" we passed right, when she said "left" we passed left.

I got a tray of cookies!

It's so funny, since I baked all those cookies the last week! Plus......

All this was for the party and very little disappeared!! So, now I have way too many cookies and chocolate in the house for just 2 of us. Gave some to Cherrill so I didn't have to see them!

I'm happy to say I got a lot done on my "Three Wishes" piece. I'm really loving this piece! Got moving on this. Now I will do the other side and then move on to the next step.

All in all today was an awesome day. Had fun with 8 good friends. Enjoyed the fun! Back on track with being Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
