I think that there was another version where the first person who picked also goes again at the end - still cant steal back one you had. Why do you need a place for friday and saturday nights? Are you plannng on making the Tenneco dives?NetDoc:If you do the chinese auction, invoke the rule of three... a gift can only be stolen three times and you can't steal it back!
Saturday 12/18 at least i am hoping they can organise it.NetDoc:Possibly... trying to figure it all out now. The big obstacle is GONE.Is the Tenneco Towers dive on Friday or Saturday?
Where I come from they call this a Yankee Swap and they are lots of fun! I'm all for it!KBeck:I'm all for the grab bag idea--always fun! I've even done a version of it we've called a Chinese Auction, where after each person gets a gift, the next person in line has the option to exchange it for someone else's who's already opened one....can get pretty hilarious!
Looks like about 20 so far.I'm still planning to make salsa (with chips, of course); I'll be happy to bring anything else that may be needed.....cups, plates, etc! What does our total head count look like so far?
Got one couch taken already taken Friday and Saturday and the Bullas are coming in Sunday night. Got an air mattress?NetDoc:BTW, I am looking for a place to stay Fri and Sat night.![]()
You've seen those world record attempts at stuffing lots of people in a mini, well now come seen Jenny and her packed houseScuba_Jenny:Got one couch taken already taken Friday and Saturday and the Bullas are coming in Sunday night. Got an air mattress?
Why not just stay and let him come down, we can always give you a drop of wine againbaitedstorm:Jenny, I've got two if someone needs to borrow them, both are queen size... I have to come back home after the Tenneco Tower dive so my honey-man can make it down for the meet-n-greet at Renee's place on Sunday. The Bulla's aren't comming until Sunday night? :11: there gonna miss all the festivities..
