My parents came in town Friday and left Monday. We had a lot of fun! We made the decision not to tell Elsa because she would have been asking nonstop the past month "Is today the day they are coming?". They arrived just in time to pick Elsa up from school and I was told her expression was priceless! I am sure my dad is still recovering from the kids climbing all over him….
Saturday we had 25+ of our friends over for an Ugly Christmas Sweater Party! Oh, my goodness! I stayed up until 2:30! I can't even remember staying up that late (or laughing that hard)…i think it definitely dates back to residency!! I waited until the last minute and when I realized ugly sweaters at Goodwill were $30+ I decided to make my own! Aaron even waited longer and realized that afternoon that the ugly sweater he was going to wear, was purged to Goodwill last year. opps! He had to settle on a T-shirt. Here is my sweater in all of its glory. Its a beauty!
I had to put the children to work cleaning prior to the party. Shhhh, don't tell Child Protective Services!
My only job was to put together the wine pantry. I had a chef cater in everything else. Smartest. move.ever!
Some of the guys doing the Shotski.
Some even took it a little further and wore sparkly pants.
I miss our old neighbors!!!
And, these Ugly sweater cookies for dessert made by my friend Karen…They were delicious!!
