Option 2:

This Christmas, I decided to step up and host my teammates for a Christmas party at my house. As a kid, I remember all the family get togethers and how much fun they were so I wanted to recreate that with my Renegades family. I invited all the players and their families and got everything ready.

For food, I asked a local catering company to create a holiday menu for us. I tried them at a team function and thought the food was a fantastic so I reached out to them for this and they were more than happy to do it. We had games set up for the kids while the adults sat around and hung out together. We did a team Secret Santa and also played a game from my childhood. You make 2 teams and get a ring. A player on the team has the ring and goes around and either pretends to drop the ring in one of their teammates hands, or pretends. The other team basically has to try and figure out who has the ring. If they get it right, they get the ring for their turn. If not, the other team keeps it. It's better to watch it in action.

All in all, it was a great night with the great people and I think I might keep this going for as long as I'm in Texas.
