Homemakers Christmas party

I have been in a group called "Homemakers" since moving to Minnesota - some 25 years or so..

we used to do crafts and talk about raising children but now we just enjoy visiting with each other and talking about grandchildren!

Each Christmas we go out to dinner together and enjoy an evening together.

We had a good time at one of our favorite local restaurants.

Then we went to the lovely home of one of our members to open Christmas gifts from our "secret pal" and reveal the name of that secret pal from the past year.

Lots of great laughs!

And we posed for an annual picture.

Ah, good friends are worth so much!

And we drew names for our secret pals for 2010..

mine is... sorry, I can't tell you!
