Christmas Party

Seriously, what's Christmas without a little party? Well OK maybe a big party. We had our ward Christmas party last week. I'd love to say I single handidly pulled an event like this off but anyone whose done this knows it takes a small village to do. So village in hand we threw a fun night with hot appetizers, and cool punch, snazzy cheeses, spinach dip and everything in between. It was such a lovely night and I don't think anyone missed the Turkey Dinner. This was the third year we were in charge of the Christmas event and we simply wanted to change it up.My super talented friend Helene took these photo's. You can see her work at HMF Photo she got some mad talents. She also did our family pictures if you wanna peak here.
We decked out the gym with lots of white lights and Christmas trees, it really looked festive.
Ashley made these sweet cup cakes and they tasted fabulous. I'm so thankful for talented friends, who share willingly their talents with me!
We also did some fruit skewers which are fun and add a little flare to any table. That and kids love to eat fruit on a stick, it tastes way better that way.
These little square bits of goodness are cheesecake bites that you can get at Costco pre made and pre cut. We needed too do some really simple treats that we could set up ahead of time so that the masses could munch while we got the hot appetizers flowing from the kitchen.
The centrepieces on the tables are fluted glass dishes filled with fresh cut holly bushes and pine cones around the base of them. Super cute and super inexpensive. I'm seriously going to plant holly bushes at my house simply for Christmas table setting.
