Ladies night

Last night, I attended the Women's Christmas dinner which is put on annually by the Ocracoke United Methodist Women for all ladies in the community.



It's a terrific evening of food, caroling, and gifts, and I enjoyed it as I usually do. This year's event was extra special in that we also celebrated (one day early) Blanche's 90th birthday. Happy Birthday, Blanche!



(And happy holidays to all of you out there reading!)

A part of the celebration each year is a reading of some sort. This year, DeAnna did the honors.



After the reading, we sang a few carols. And then it was time for presents! (Each lady brings a gift, and then they are randomly distributed until everyone has one.) I received some delicious smelling candles.
