When the folks at Baileys offered to host a new section of urbanmoms.ca celebrating members’ memorable moments with friends, we thought the holiday season was a perfect time to launch!
It can be hard to find time to get together so we wanted to hear how you make time for Holiday Cheer with your pals. Thank you to all of the members who submitted stories. The theme this week is "creative and unique holiday celebrations" Enjoy!
Wrapping Night: One of my favorite evenings each and every year is "wrapping night". My sister and I store our Christmas gifts at Grandmas house each year, it began as a safe hideaway to ensure that no snoopers found their gifts, it evolved into a Christmas celebration.. One night before Christmas, we take one evening out of the crazy Christmas schedule, to wrap our presents. The three of us get together amongst paper, ribbons and bows, sipping our liqueurs, and conversation always leads to Christmas’ past. It’s always is such a wonderful night of laughter, friendship, and enjoyment as we take the time to prepare for Christmas in a fun and relaxing manner and it seems to set the proper mood for the holidays to come! ~ Nicole
Holiday Parties with a Twist!: I love throwing parties for my "gal friends"…generally its around a "theme". I threw a "Sex and the City" party….my friends had to wear pointy shoes in order to attend. Of course…martinis were served!!
I also threw a "Desperate Housewives" party. This time my friends had to wear something that a character would have worn and most came in juicy couture outfits..LOL!
Not sure what type of party I will throw next. I’m always thinking!!!
