Mom and Dad actually look great in their Christmas attire. Look at those dainty little trees on Mama's sweater. Oh and that color!
We had an amazing time at Joe and Jen's house for our annual Christmas Party. Once again I am overwhelmed by how our family has grown. There must have been about 70 people there this year. Eventually, we will have to rent out a hall to fit everyone in, says brother Mike. But I think Joe's house is big enough to handle all of us for a few years more!
The yankee swap was loud, and greedy as always. Every year, it seems like the family gets more and more creative with their gifts. There were some real sought after ones such as a basket of ghiardelli chocolates, a couple of lush blankets, a marguerita gift basket and of all things, a Justin Bieber, life size cut out poster!By the way, I won the Beiber Poster!
In addition to the yankee swap, this year we added a new feature to the Christmas Party, Wear your ugliest( although I think they are kind of pretty in a weird sort of way)Christmas sweater contest! Almost everyone participated with the exception of a few grinches,( Joe, Allyn!) The proud winners were:....
So, just another crazy, fun filled time with my beautiful family!
Jane and Mike should have got an award for best dressed couple! Check out those green polyester pants!
The girl behind the scenes: planning for the amazing ugly sweater contest> Love the gingerbread man belt! These sisters are having a good time!

Merry Christmas to all and may Santa bring everyone a new Christmas sweater!!
Love Janet
