November Student Life meeting/gathering

Each month our Student Life team gets together for a "gathering" of some sort.  This month we paired it with doing some early prep for the campus decorating party that was happening over the weekend.  We spent a couple of hours on Tuesday afternoon assembing and "fluffing" all of the campus Christmas trees - about 25 or so in total.  We also included a birthday celebration, passing around baby Greta (our VP's 7 week old baby) and of course, FOOD!  :)

This was our snack spread - sausage slices, fresh fruit, birthday cake, cheese & crackers, Lithuanian poppy seed nuggets (kinda like pretzels, but not), tortilla chips, and peanut blossom cookies (made by me!) 

Here's the birthday girl, Kim, blowing out her candles!
