Day 199: Ashlyn's Elephant
Tonight Ashlyn Belding had a white elephant exchange christmas party! She had one last year and that's where I met most of my Dulles friends, so I was definitely excited to see everyone again! Last year, I brought a horse on a stick that made noises as my present, which sounds weird but it was the hit of the party! So this year, I definitely had to get a good gift to keep my good gift-giving name, so I bought a $5 scooter and matching purple fuzzy hat at Goodwill. :) Walking in, I honestly had no idea who was going to be there, so I was definitely happy to be greeted by a million hugs and familiar faces! After some crazy gingerbread house building and the photoshoot frenzies, we finally started the gift exchange. My scooter was the first gift to be opened, score! I wound up winning a Spongebob Squarepants foldable chair, and Zach Lathrop got my scooter! After the party dwindled and most of the people left, there were only about 5 of us left. Meaghan Connolly and I say on the couch talking till about 1:30 when we went outside to check if we could see the moon, there was a Lunar Eclipse tonight! We couldn't see it because it was too cloudy outside, but it was still fun to stay up late and talk with some old friends :)
