Why I love winter!!

Here is a few reasons why I love Winter.







Coming January 1st..... Reasons why I hate winter.

Ugly Sweater Christmas party.

So last night we had our first Ugly sweater party. I had such a good time. and it was pretty fun finding our sweaters. I thought I'd have a wide variety in my parents closet from years past. but I guess they decided to DI them all last year. so I had to go and buy them back. Bailee saw all of our pictures and thought all our sweaters were very cute. so I had to tell her it was actually a "Christmas sweater party" so her feelings wouldn't be hurt.

This is Ryan and my pompous laughter, and smug face, to match our sweaters. although all the girls agreed that my sweater had made it's way back into style. I'm sure 2 years ago it belonged to a sweet little old lady, and now it could be sold at some teeny bopper store in the mall.

Betsy and Diana did a great job as well. Betsy was kind enough to sacrifice her turtleneck to Uglify Ryans sweater a little more. so thanks for that. What you don't see in the picture is the cute little jingle bell sewn to the side. and on Diana's it's covered in the picture but it even has a little elf Button. VERY FESTIVE
And here of coarse we've got the Utah fan and the BYU fan I personally think the RED sweater is hideous!!!!! (really I don't care but I've got to represent for Ryan whoot whoot)

and the grand prize winner are these little numbers by Mike and Heather!!! Nothing can top that vest!!!! and Heather went all out with the pants, hair and earrings!!!

Thanks guys for going all out, you made it fun. I love our Christmas parties. I always have so much visiting with you. And those of you who couldn't make it, we really missed you.
p.s did you notice how beautiful all my friends are even in their ugly sweaters!!!
