We will spend about 15 minutes at each location before on to the home of Betty Maier and Betty Rhodes for our Christmas celebration and dinner. Our dinner will be around 5:30(ish).
Don't forget to bring your "ugly" ornament for gift exchange. By the way, both Bettys have told me we can't leave the ornaments on their tree this year!!!!! I just don't understand, do you??? Also, if you would like to make a "donation" to the Terrell State Hospital or The Share Center, please bring your item(s). Anne Davidson and Gail Rodgers will make the deliveries on behalf of First United Methodist Church - Girlfriends of Glory!

We can also carpool from the church parking lot or from Colonial when we are finished over to the Bettys'.
