Girls of '67 Christmas Party

Fancy Schmancy wine bottle cork remover thingy...waaaaay to complicated, they are reading the instructions, we were getting really parched....
Everything was funny to Vickie....

Erma, Jenny, Sheila, and Trish

Great to see Margaret again.
Cindie, Rita and Vickie...Vickie is still laughing.
Sandie was serving some delicious tea that she got while in China.
The tables were just beautiful.
What a wonderful menu, twice baked potatoes, chicken with some delicious sauce, fruit salad, lettuce salad, with strawberries and pine nuts, and a sweet vinegarette dressing.
The food was fantastic, with chocolate-covered red velvet cake balls and peppermint ice cream for dessert...yum...we could hardly move after all of the food, but it didn't stop us from laughing and talking non-stop.
Here is out little group, Left front row: Margaret Smith Kohrig, Linda Phillips Miselbrook, Cindie Stanford Dice, Vickie Whittaker Johnson, Second row, left to right: Jenny Kaiser Holsapple, Sheila McKelvey Halterman, Trish Whiele Timm, Erma Meador Bumgarner, back row: Sandie Young Phillips, Carol Easley Schwartz, Rita Boudet Black.

We always have such fun at our little yearly parties, there is always much laughing, remembering, serious conversation, but mostly the caring we have for each other as friends for many, many years.

A short story: The tables were decorated with napkins and candy canes, so we were helping clean up, and Rita and I were collecting the candy canes, Rita looked at me and said, we should do something with these, so we headed back to Sandie and Mikes bedroom and hung them all over their room, the ceiling fan, the closet door handles, the light switches, the night stand handles, anywhere we could find, then we put a few on their pillows....well WE thought it was funny anyway! As Jenny Holsapple said, " Sandie and Mike got 'caned' ".
