An ugly, ugly weekend!

It's that time of year again.  Andrea sent out invites for the annual ugly sweater party.  We hosted it and she decided to have a pasta and hot chocolate bar.  She provided the pastas and I did a huge cesar salad and Thatchers brought three breads.  Everyone else brought their favorite pasta sauces.  Then we provided a milk chocolate hot chocolate and Shafers did a Starbucks and a peppermint one and everyone else brought their favorite toppings for HC.  We ate, visited, played couch of power and visited some more.  The majority of the group left around 10:30.  I had made some photo props this year for our photo booth.

And I posed with Joanne because Marc was out of town, so she came alone.

And the obligatory group picture.  It was a fun night and the next night Taz and Lawson wore our sweaters to an ugly sweater their friends were having.  And Talon and Mikel have an ugly sweater party December 29th that they'll be borrowing one of our sweater sets for!   Merry merry times!
