I am still on the Relief Society committee and we got to plan our big Christmas dinner early this year. Because of building scheduling we had to have it the second week of November. Although everyone thought we were crazy, it was nice not to have to have one more thing to go to in December. I work with a great committee. I made the invites and posters again. They were fun. We were going with a berry theme and we used lots of burlap.
It took 4 suburbans and a few other cars to get everything over to the church that day to set up. We worked from 10 am until 2pm and then we came back at 5 to finish. After it was over we were there until almost midnight cleaning up, but it was totally worth it. Plus we got to take home lots of left over pies...
I made the JOY sign and it doubled as a Bunco gift a week later.
The Commitee (l-r) Rachelle, Erin, Krystal, Jackie, Heidi, Tara, me, Barbara
We served soup in bread bowls and a berry salad. We had dozens of pies for dessert and ice cream. We played a game (the Left Right game) which I Emceed and talked and laughed. It was a great night. All in all we had about 115 women there and there are only 130 in our ward RS so we had an unbelievable turn out. Can't wait to plan next year!!
