A Girly Christmas

Lydia's Annual Girly Christmas Gathering was last night. Lydia is a dear friend. She is very giving and much fun. She always has a great party. We had dinner and a fabulous dessert. Erica made a pumpkin cheese cake and a turtle cheesecake...I took a picture so you could see it. After dinner, we exchanged Christmas stockings. Last year, we exchanged empty stockings...and this year, we got to fill them. We played "dirty Santa" --and nobody took my stocking. I was so happy because I opened Kim's stocking! I got an awesome chocolate brown cross (I love it!), a notepad, lotion, and a little nativity ornament. Thanks Kim! And...Leah made all the girls a beautiful pair of earrings. Yes, she made them by hand.

We had a great time. Thank you--Lydia for another fun party!

YUM!! YUM!! Cheesecake is my ALL time favorite. Those look soooo good!! What a fun idea! Your stocking you got was cute. So who ended up with your stocking, or did you get to bring two home? Because I know yours had to be cute, and filled with fun things!

Grandmother came by and saw your blog and was crazy about it. I think she wants a computer now.
