Ugly Sweater Party

This year we started a new tradition... a family ugly sweater party. We did it this year because Travis, Nicole and Maggie won't be in town for our Christmas Eve Tradition this year.

We had Homemade Pizza (Special gluten free pizza for Collette and I) Swedish Christmas Soda and Treats! We exchanged presents with Travis, Nicole and Maggie since they won't be there on Christmas Morning. (I got a way cute zip up hoodie and a new purse!) We played Wii and we voted on who we thought had the ugliest sweater!

Travis!

Nicole!

Tim!

Collette!

Noah!

Dave!

Megan!

Josh!

And me!

It was pretty close, almost a tie between Josh and Noah, But in the end.....

Josh won!

It was so much fun! I can't wait to start looking for my sweater for next years party!

Definitely my FAVORITE picture of the night!
