Christmas 01 Pictures

Page 1 | Page 2

Every year the MIT gang gets together for a group Christmas party, featuring a Yankee Swap for the Adults and a Secret Santa for the kids. In years past, the Christmas party has been at the Meeks house; however, since the Meeks have moved to Rhode Island, we offered to host the party instead.

Liz Brooks did most of the planning. Daphne was not going to organize another party so soon after the B'nai Mitzvah. We had a buffet meal and lots of conversation, but the highlight of the afternoon was the Yankee Swap, with Nat Brooks' new and revised rules.

This year, like in years past, I wandered around with the camera to record the event for the future. The pictures are not stellar, but it is interesting to go back and look at past year's events. In fact, Caroline was just reviewing the Christmas party pictures from 1999, reliving old memories. (We do not have pictures from the 2000 Christmas party since Daphne and I spent that Christmas taking pictures in St. Thomas.)
