Pictures of Christmas 2024 are in the link below.
There are also pictures/videos of the White Elephant 2024 party held in Vermont on Saturday, December 28th. The meal this year was spaghetti and meatballs prepared by Rachelle with chocolate punch and horchata to drink as well as a table full of holiday desserts.
The actual white elephant exchange was different from previous years. First, the VT Beauchemin's played a prank on our mom by secretly taking things from her house and wrapping them as gifts for the exchange. It was hilarious to watch mom's reaction as people unwrapped the gifts. It dawned on her that these were from her house after about the fourth gift. For the actual gift exchange, we choose our gifts as normal then sat in a circle picking out Lindor chocolates whose colored wrapper told us either to pass our gifts to the left, to the right, to exchange them with someone, or to take a gift and leave the circle. After the exchange, we divided everyone into two groups and played the following party games: red cup race using balloons, building a red cup pyramid using balloons, bubble races, and a candy cane fishing game. The party was continued at the VT grandparents house for the rest of the night with the "kids" playing Minion Operation, Serpientes y Escalera and La Loteria while the ''adults' sat around converging.
