3rd Annual White Elephant Party

Between work schedules, holiday parties and soccer tournaments, we luckily were able to find one night that worked for everyone to get together for the 3rd Annual White Elephant Party. This year, the Schreck's hosted with a yummy dinner catered by Rosa's.
All of the kids wild and ready to get the present opening started!
The best of friends...Lauren, Emily, Maylie and TaylorWe drew numbers from 1-17 and reminded everyone of the "2 steals, then frozen rule" before getting started.Maylie was unlucky #1 and loved (not really) this photo of Hank. He took this photo on my camera during the soccer team party and I thought I would pay him back by using it against him. He was kind enough to steal it from May so she didn't actually have to keep it. She ended it up with a plastic spinning Christmas tree that lights up!
Matt was thrilled with his penguin sleep mask and pink slipper socks until Felicia stole them. Instead he went home with a plastic sheep that poops butterscotch Jelly Beans!
Allison picked a fun brain teaser game, but at the end, traded Matt for his pooping sheep.Taylor with her Monster popsicle molds.Lisa posing with her Takeout for Two game box.
Leslie with her funny face stress ball.
Dominic couldn't have been more excited to steal the Marshmallow Shooter from Lauren.
So Lauren opened the Fart Machine.But Mary stole the Fart Machine from Lauren.Which led to Lauren stealing Emily's "Boss" mug.Emily then got to open this handy dandy fork/pizza cutter...just what she always wanted!Charlie first opened this Yoda beanie, but Michael quickly stole that away.
So Charlie got these lovely holiday boxers!
I think my girls will fight over my glitter baton
and Tyan will enjoy his festive rubber ducks!
Reanna ended the night with this amazing inflatable tongue!

We had some very creative gifts this year and another successful White Elephant party with wonderful friends!
