The Christmas Challenge

This year we will be in Singapore for Christmas along with two other couples on our BGR team. That's 7 people total. The gals and I have decided to make this a fun and challenging Christmas by picking a "theme" and figuring out fun and whacky ways to intermingle the theme with our normal Christmas traditions. Last night we came up with a list of twelve possiblities ranging from colors, fruits, animals, and flowers. We drew one from a bowl and guess what our 2009 theme is: LEMONS! I know we will have fun thinking through that theme and a challenge finding white elephant gifts, food, and decorations that we can incorporate into our festive Christmas dinner. I will be glad to hear from any of you if you have ideas! This is going to be fun. Rick and I are headed to Greece tonight so I know what I will be looking for while I'm there - lemons!
