American Christmas Party

We had a great time feasting on American Christmas treats, playing gift-giving games and making reindeer antlers from pantyhose and balloons! :) It was a treat when Santa Claus showed up for a visit and gave everyone a bottle of shampoo for a present!

Costume Party

We didn't celebrate Halloween, but we had fun dressing up in costumes, playing games and eating lots of great food! Vera won the costume competition as Captain Jack Sparrow. But we had an artist, a court jester, a couple of mummies and various other characters represented. Of all the games, the funnest one seemed to be the chocolate-eating game--when we had to dress in bulky gloves and cut chocolate with a knife and fork! :) But the pumpkin-carving contest and the mummy-making contest were pretty fun too!

Bowling and Pizza

We had a great time bowling at the Vitamin club near Obolon metro--and eating homemade pizza! Shelley is a great Italian cook, and everyone loved it. I'm not sure who won the bowling--friendship won, I'm sure. Here are a few pictures from our event on Oct. 4.
