5th Annual Rogers Family Christmas Party

Latisha is loving this gift. Every year we do a white elephant gift exchange. I am listing a few of my favorites from this years party.

Shaylee entertained the kids with a game of Duck Duck Goose.

Okay this gift was awesome. Lanise was sure surprised when she opened the box and silly string exploded everywhere. This was Dylan's gift. He and Blake had some fun in the garage before the party started, so we all knew that we were in trouble.

Latisha makes this squirrel look cute, but when Shaylee dumped it out of the box and all you could see was a blob of fur it wasn't so cute.

This was my favorite. Zenica got a surprise when she opened her gift. It was alive. We played the left-right game with our gifts, so we passed them around for about ten minutes. This poor mouse probably had a concussion by the time she unwrapped him. This was all Latisha's doing. But he was pretty cute while in his cage. He was actually fun to watch.

Ohhh neither can I! (wait for next year) I love these parties. I didn't know what to expect when I opened the box so I was relieved that nothing got me when I first opened it then Dylan flipped the latch! I just about threw it! You should have seen Joe when I gave it to him on Christmas! Bahahaha, I have never laughed so hard! Thanks for the post. And I agree the little squirrel was not that cute!
