HGE 2015 ... the force awakens

Charlie is responsible for HGE this year, but I want an official record of the proceedings in the blog book I will have printed for 2105. So here is the email he sent today, launching HGE 2015. This may be the earliest it's ever been organized. Thanks Charlie!

Greetings,

Your HGE coordinator has determined a theme for the 2015 event. All seven adults and Annie will be a part of the HGE exchange. The six kids will NOT be a part of the HGE event.. We can decide later how we want that to work for kid gifts - this email just covers HGE.

We will have a $30 limit on all gifts.

I found mom's email from last year about past themes, so a quick run-down:

2009 Match-up of a store and a theme. Gift had to be in the theme and from the store.
2010 College
2011 Merry Monogram
2012 Happy Holidays on the Farm, E-I-E-I-O
2013 Superheroes
2014 "Gadgets, Gizmos and Thing-a-ma-jigs"

Given the excitement among some of us for the soon-to-be-released movie featuring everyone's favorite Wookie (not you, Liz) and given the movie release date is Dec 18, the 2015 HGE theme is....

STAR WARS

Note: Items may be but do not have to be officially licensed Star Wars merchandise. Just has to in some way relate to Star Wars as a general theme.

I will work on dividing up names and will distribute those shortly.

Until then, may the force be with you.

Love,
CP
