Not Your Ordinary Party...Doug's holiday party was phenomenal!!! (see next post for more details about Doug and the party)
Not only did Doug go all out with decorations and food, he provided us with entertainment - and it wasn't your usual entertainment.
Find the Pickles and Find the Fairies - Doug had hidden 3 fairies who "needed to find their way home" and two Christmas Pickles - we scurried around inside and out and had great fun finding the unusual items.
Make a Christmas Tree - This idea is wonderful for any age - Doug had green and beige paper, a whole lot of embellishments and 
of course, Aleene's Original Tacky Glue set out on a table. Notice I didn't mention scissors - nope, we couldn't use scissors. We folded, we creased, we tore, we calculated - we had fun! Check out our creativity. It was also great fun to just sit, chat and dance around to Christmas music as we made our trees. 
(It's Monday morning and I'm hearing from lots of people that their tree isn't shown here, so you'll be seeing more soon! Doug tells me he's bringing them all in so we can vote.)
Smores - We huddled around Doug's backyard firepit and made smores! See, Matt, I did put up your photos!!! (Matt's been not so secretly wanting to be on my blog and see what I'd write!)
Matt, Megan and Josh making the perfect smores!

Doug's house is like a "Christmas Wonderland!" What talent...after attending his fabulous party it made me want to go home and put more decorations up! The party was a blast...I can't wait to see more pictures!
I love the challenge of creating something with no scissors. Helps us get back to when we didn't have so many creative inhibitions! My favorite is the cone tree, since it's 3-dimensional.
Looks like a great party!
