2017 Christmas Party

Image
It has been far too long since we have posted in this Blog! Sorry about that. Other responsibilities got in the way, I think. :-) But, that is changing, so maybe we can do better about keeping this updated. At least, we will have one post for this year! Friday, December 1, we had our annual Christmas Party. The past several years we have enjoyed having a Potluck Dinner at the Deer Run Community Center. We start with a time of fellowship with soft drinks, coffee and chat. Then begins the serious stuff of eating! Click any Photo for a Larger View Of course, we're not just about eating! We also sang carols (we won't embarrass anyone by publishing the music)! But, we also mixed in some of our feature Christmas activity, the White Elephant gift exchange or free-for-all! Actually, mostly it is seeing who can get some good sweet stuff, while keeping way from the Goose . The goose part may not make sense, in this photo series, because I did not capture that...

Ambassadors ABF 2011 Christmas Party

The Ambassadors ABF celebrated the Christmas season at the Deer Run Community Center on December 3rd, 2011. Although our class can number as high as 65 on some Sundays, we had about 40 in attendance for our party. We even had some special guests from far away. Fola and Pauline Fadeyi were here and also Larry and Nancy Allen. They win the prize for coming the longest distance, from Bangladesh! Our party started with FOOD. The class provided the meat and drinks; than everyone pitched in potluck style to provide appetizers, salads, veggies and desserts. There was enough food to go around another time! Of course, we had our traditional “White Elephant” gift exchange. Everyone had an opportunity to take someone else’s gift of get a new one from the pile. As normal, those with the candy and sweets were popular. But there were many other very nice items, too! We also mixed in some carol singing. This was a great time and was led by Mark Averitt. Thank you, Mark. It wouldn’t...
