This has been an annual tradition event on the NW side of Houston for some time. It's full of cheer and laughter for the whole family—even the in-laws—on a December Sunday afternoon/eve.
-
Each attendee should bring a wrapped gift (anonymous, no tags) to participate in the whacky gift exchange - gift bags ok too.

The Tex-Mex food at Rudy's is delicious, and you'll laugh until your face aches by the time all the steals, deals, and surprises have been exposed!

GIFT EXCHANGE INFO
FUN! FUN! FUN!
** Anyone interested in participating in the White Elephant gift "swap" ( YOU DO! ) must bring an untagged (anonymous) wrapped gift (suggested value < $20.00-ish ). The gift can be something new or something pulled from your closet —a gag gift... (kids will be present). People who don't bring a gift always regret not participating, so YES, wrap something for each person in your family or party and bring it along!
White Elephant Rules (Stealing Gifts):
- An opened gift may be stolen no more than twice.
- The second steal is the final, and the new owner gets to keep that gift without worrying about it being stolen again.
