Who Kidnapped Santa

I have to say that this was the best ward Christmas party I have ever been to. The whole day I was dreading going to it. Ward parties are always crowded, loud and chaotic. They are usually not very entertaining either. But this one was different. It was so laid back. Each family attending brought a blanket to sit on and for dinner they had 6 foot sub sandwiches.

A sister in our ward wrote a little play about Santa being kidnapped and the ward members tried to figure out who did it. We were all aloud to question the "suspects." They had different ward members dressed up as different characters. Then they would send different families in the ward to different areas of the church building to find Santa and the family would come back with a different character. Each character got to tell where they saw Santa last and plead their case as to how they couldn't have done it. Our family got asked to check the Relief Society room for Santa and we came back with Rudolph.

Ali Lund was an angel

Sandy Vasquez was a Princess

Kay Harper was Rudolph and Connie Greer was Mrs. Claus
Faith Sam was Cindy Lou Who
Rob Reuel was the Grinch and his son Paris was Max (the dog)
Santa was played by a Brother from another ward so I don't know who he was.
