Great Christmas Party & Changes

We had a wonderful time at our Christmas Party and we are grateful to all that participated and brought food and books to share. Thanks to Jessica for hosting for us. We also enjoyed playing games and chatting afterwards. We discussed making a few changes for this coming year. We'd love all of your feedback on the changes that were made.

First off, I found a way to email all of you when the blog is updated. (I'm doing this to see if it works) This way we can make sure to check it when something new has been posted. Always on the side of the blog is listed where each month's bookclub will be held for the next 6 months (not set in stone). Also noted on the side will be listed the book we will be reading for the upcoming month.

Next, the night of book club has been changed to the FIRST THURSDAY of each month, except in January when we'll be holding book club on January 8th.

Another thing is that we are going to try an open discussion about once a quarter. Annette suggested it and I hope I'm getting the gist of it across right. We will all bring a book or books we have read or are reading and share our feelings about the books with each other. It will give us more variety and increase our knowledge of other books. Post a comment if this is not right Annette. We will be trying this for the January book club so that we will have more time to circulated the next book we are reading "Papa Married A Mormon".

Jessica will also be helping to update this blog so that we will all know what is going on as I will be moving sometime this month and I don't always have internet access. You all are able to update this as well if you all have anything to add.

CHRISTMAS PARTY!

Come to Jessica's house THIS Thursday at 6:30 for a potluck dinner (hopefully you signed up for it), a fun book exchange, and fun with friends. Post a comment, email or call Jessica if you have any questions. I'll have her post the sign up so we all remember what we signed up to bring.

December Part-tay!!

Just thought I (Jessica) would take a minute to update the blog and remind everyone about the Christmas party coming up! It will be December 18th and I was thinking we could meet at my house around 6:30. For the dinner I was thinking that maybe we could bring our favorite dish that we enjoy around Christmas. For example, my family has a tradition of always having a 7 layer dip before Christmas dinner is served so I was going to make that. What do you think? Good idea or bad? I am not sure about what else is planned so keep watching for new posts. I think we will still be having our book exchange which is always fun! Talk to you all soon!
