Christmas Party With a Twist

On Sunday we met up with friends for our annual Christmas get-together. In past years we have exchanged gifts, but this year we agreed it would be better to do something for charity. The economy being what it is, and all of us being at least solvent, it seemed like the obvious choice. So, we each drew a name and our assignment was to picture them at age 10 and buy a toy that would fit their personality. I got the new version of Rubik's puzzle. Something like a three-dimensional octagon. (Yeah, like I could almost do that...I couldn't even get one side of Rubik's Cube to a single color!)

Anyway, we had so much fun guessing what each person would get, then enjoying the joke when they unwrapped them. Good thing we couldn't open them, since several of us were tempted to actually play with them. But we had to consider the kids they were going to.

All were donated to Toys for Tots yesterday. What fun!
