Well, I have been to 2 Christmas cookie and ornament exchanges this season.. Well I have been to one and hosted one.. All I can say is FUN FUN and YUM YUM!!!If you have never been to one you have to!! It is such a fun time of fellowship and good times! I love seeing all the yummy cookies and of course tasting them.. The first exchange was a neighborhood exchange and it was just a good time hanging with friends and meeting new neighbors and of course getting new recipes for cookies.. And the ornament exchange is really neat to because you see all kinds, that may be your taste or not but it is always fun to hang them on your tree year after year and remember where you got it and who it came from.. That game is alot of fun because depending on what number you draw you choose a pkg or steal one from another and that gets really interesting when that gets going...Lots of laughs:)The second one that I hosted was for the ladies and girls of our church, that was alot of fun too.. The funny thing is nobody wanted to steal, I guess that's the honest christian thing to do but I think they realized it was just a game so some of them started it and the game began!! We also went around the room and shared Christmas memories as a child and there were some really good ones..I love hearing about other peoples traditions and seeing how similar they are to ours..Its a such a great time of year to share fun times with friends and I hope they all have a very blessed Christmas but I also hope we all realize that not everyone can afford to go to a exchange so this season I ask you to just reach out to one person and give them a bag of Christmas cookies and a ornament and see how much it blesses them and you too!! Merry Christmas!
