Last night Bud and Barb invited the team over for the annual team Christmas Party and Yankee Gift Swap. Dressed in their finest, the team crowded into the Fisher-Kourajian household and enjoyed lasagna dinner, a "friendly" exchange of gifts, lots of laughs as the gifts were opened, and rice pudding for dessert.
The gifts remained unwrapped as everyone vied for the ones that looked most enticing. Popular this year were Becca's gift, wrapped with a handmade lacy snowflake bow, and Ben's gargantuan cardboard box that had a smaller bag on the side which Erik deemed "felt like sand".
Turns out it WAS sand. Vanya ended up getting the gift, and as we all puzzled over the plastic bag of sand, which Ben happily told us he got from facilities, Vanya unwrapped the mystery as he opened the larger box to reveal:plastic sand toys!!!!! Genious!
There were many other fabulous surprises and choice items of apparel, soft blankets, ridiculous toys, and candy. Oh, and a 10 lb log of summer sausage. All in all, quite a haul of fun.
