AlmiraGulch Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I host my local sisters and their families for a Christmas party every year, and each year we do a themed white-elephant type party. It's a bit competitive, I have to admit! Last year the gift had to do with the giver's favorite Christmas Carol. For example, someone brought a hula hoop, someone brought a package of Sleepy-Tine team, an eye mask and a bottle of Tylenol PM (Silent Night (sleep in heavenly peace) etc. This year the theme is your favorite Christmas movie. I did this, and I have no idea what to take! My favorite Christmas movies are completely non-traditional......Love Actually and The Ref. I know many of you have seen (and hated!) Love Actually. If you haven't seen The Ref, it's a hysterically funny, but kind of dark, comedy. For some reason, I can't think beyond those two movies, and I have NO idea what to buy for my own party! Any suggestions? Please help. I'm desperate. Even my 9 year old has come up with hers! I can't be outdone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinder Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 For Love, Actually, I'd get a Joni Mitchell cd (from the Alan Rickman/Emma Thompson storyline) :iagree: This is exactly what I was thinking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 The Ref is my all time favorite Christmas movie! I would get "slipper socks... medium!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlmiraGulch Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 These are great ideas! Don't know why I didn't think of them. I'm the least creative person I've ever knows. I LOVE the "slipper sock....medium" idea, and all of my sisters will know it, too. The Joni Mitchell CD is a great one, too. You guys are the best!
