Life Group Christmas Party

This Sunday (December 21st) we are planning on having a Christmas Party at my parents ranch in Sulphur. The plan is everyone to grab lunch on their own & then head out to the ranch. Feel free to bring your favorite Holiday sweets for a mid afternoon snack. In addition to our lesson, we'll be going on a ride through the deer pen (weather permitting), so I would advise to wear clothes you don't mind getting a little dusty.

We are also planning on doing a small gift exchange. Everyone who would like to participate is asked to bring a gag gift ($5 MAX). We'll be doing a white elephant/Chinese Christmas exchange. If you have any questions , feel free to ask.

Hope to see y'all Sunday!

Directions to my parents:
Take the Sulphur/Cameron Exit from I-10 & go north on Ruth Street
Take a Left onto Highway 90.
Go about 5-7 miles and you'll see a road on your left called Choupique Rd. (This is just a landmark so you can start looking for my parents road)
Take the 3rd road on the right past Choupique Road--it is called WPA Road
Go about a mile, over the railroad tracks & you'll see an entrance way for Rhodes Ranch. Take the 3rd driveway on the left into Rhodes Ranch...the address on the mailbox is 2597. My parents house is white with a green roof.

If you would like to participate, please feel free to purchase anything you think the girls would like. It doesn't have to be off their list. Bring whatever you purchase to life groups UNWRAPPED on Sunday (12/7) at the Ivey's house.
