The Poll Christmas Party

Per family tradition, we attended the Poll Family Christmas Party, which is generally held on Christmas Eve however, this year it was held the Saturday before. It's held at the South Weber church every year due to the fact that there's a mere 200 people or so that attend this annual event. When you attend this event you try your best to arrive on time as to ensure you have a plate full of yummy food on it, otherwise you may just end up with a roll and a few random cookies.

Once you are entirely too full, they give your food a minute to digest, and play BINGO. You must bring a BINGO prize if you want to play and get a prize in return when you line up the 5 sequential squares. This BINGO prize receiving is more than just picking a prize off the stage, because once those prizes are gone you can trade with anyone else in the room! Jed generally does his best to trade with his cousin Jared!

After the BINGO prize exchanging is over everyone cleans up the tables and chairs and gets ready to DANCE!! There's an array of dance options...a dance for every generation: the waltz, bunny hop, line dancing and even the chicken dance! It's fun to try all the different types! Kenzi especially loved the dancing and she twirled around in circles until she got dizzy and fell, but then twirled some more! I think we all had a great time! Here's some pics!
