our ward party was friday night - which means it is now over!!! :)! for those of you who don't know, i was called to be the activities committee chair about four weeks ago, so i had four weeks to plan and execute the christmas party. (i have one married couple on my committee.) originally, i was told to plan for 75-100 people, then 120, and we ended up having about 140 people attend. it was a great turnout!! a lot of people invited friends and neighbors and i'm told everyone had a good time and had plenty to eat. this picture was taken as i was passing by my little family - james got to watch the kids while i checked the buffet table, refilled dishes, cut ham, replenished the lemonade, prompted santa, readied the primary kids for the nativity song, etc. even though it was totally nervewracking all day on Friday, i really enjoyed planning this par-tay and am looking forward to the next one!

Great picture! Looks so festive! I sure you put on a great christmas party!
Looks great!
I'm sorry about the calling - I feel for you! :) I ate cereal at home after many a ward party!
it was so funny - people kept saying that i needed to sit down and eat and i'm just looking at them like they have no idea what all needs to be done! :) i made sure to get a piece of cake, though. :)! -bess
