During the day Thursday Kensley came over to help with some Christmas decorating. The party started at 5:30 pm Dan and Susan brought Nancy over to mom's first then we picked mom and Nancy up along with mom's home baked Christmas cookies and drove over to the Hanna City gym where Karin, who was in charge of the party this year had the tables all set for the big meal.
The meal was delicious and everyone enjoyed the special treats such as deer appetizers, fried chicken, all the amazing sides and of course lots and lots of desserts. The next item on the program was games. Karin bought hundreds of prizes. Below some of the kids are checking out all the prizes.
We played two games, both were a lot of fun. The first was Charades and the second game was Santa Says.

After everyone got a prize came the reading of the Christmas story by Spark.
After the reading and singing of carols Santa came to visit and the gifts were given out. Everyone got exactly what they wanted. Mom, who started this family with her marriage to dad and then having 11 children gave money to each of the mom's and had them pick out a gift that their child would enjoy. Smart grandma really smart great grandma. Next year will be even bigger there are 7 more great grandchildren on the way for 2019 bringing the total of mom's great grandchildren to 79.
