There are only 3 days til Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!! I can hardly believe it. Today we are going to play a game of reversed Taboo. So for those of you who have never played Taboo, here is how it is played. You are giving a word such as HOLIDAY. You then have to describe that word to your teammates and see if they can guess the word. The catch is you are also given 5 words that you cannot say when describing your word. If you say one of those 5 words, then that word does not count. So in reversed Taboo, I am going to give you 5 words and you see if you can figure out what the word is. 

1. "HO, HO, HO", sleigh, beard, belly, red suit
2. reindeer, nose, sleigh, red, bright
3. Santa Claus, workshop, reindeer, arctic, cold
4. wife, Santa Claus, North Pole, cookies, married
5. Santa Claus, elves, children, Christmas, gifts
6. cold, frozen, flakes, winter, white
7. red, white, peppermint, Christmas tree, stocking
8. ornaments, lights, evergreen, star, decorate
9. season, cold, snow, Christmas, December
10. helpers, small, toys, workshop, North Pole

Today's Bible reading is John 1:1-5. For an extra entry answer the following question: Who is the Word?
