Journaling reads: The cousins used to exchange names for Christmas gift buying. Since they are older now, last year we decided to play Dirty Santa and include the adults. Last year, not much stealing/swapping was done. This year, however, a little more of the stealing/swapping was done. I love how Addy sits as close to the pile of gifts as she can get! Her favorite gift to get is definitely a bag of candy!
The “gag” gift this year, due to my recent pickle ball episode, was a pickle ball set including balls and paddles, and a certificate for a “free” hospital visit! HA! Elisabeth was the one to pick the gift from the pile, but I, determined to play pickle ball again, took it from her. However, my recent diagnosis of osteoporosis has nixed my pickle ball playing days, I am afraid!
All in all, everyone seems to enjoy the game. And, I guess the favorite gifts are candy and cash! We had all kinds of gifts... from hatchets to lawn decor, mugs, waffle irons, and blue tooth speakers!
