Our final, official holiday party was the Lady Samurai Christmas Coffee. This is always an event I look forward to because our commander and DO's wives do such a beautiful job decorating and throw a really fun party. We always have a combat gift exchange with really nice gifts people actually want, so it's exciting watching everyone open the pretty packages, and trying to steal the gift we want most. This year I contributed two mounted prints of travel photos I've taken in Japan. I enjoyed watching people fight over that more than I did hunting for
my gift. =^)

| Our beautiful party favors. These ornaments are heavy and the size of a large grapefruit, but very classy! |
 |
| So many gifts!! We couldn't wait to dig in! |
 |
| There were a lot of customized and homemade items up for grabs. So cool! |
 |
| Our commander's wife Marlie had her two girls help her pick out and open her gift |
 |
| Love my friends! |
Of course, our newest little Lady Samurai named Elisha totally stole the show that night. I got a couple of suspicious looks when I asked to hold her first. (Not normally a baby person...) But hey, it was the holidays and a time to celebrate big blessings in small packages! ;^)
