The council revealed the beautiful quilt they created as a group then enjoyed lunch and a Christmas gift exchange before heading to the Tribal Office to decorate stockings and ornaments and take part in an ugly sweater contest. 🎅🤶The day wrapped up with a raffle for an Eighth Generation blanket and plenty of holiday cheer. 🎄💛
