Deck the Halls

Despite planning our wedding, attending a handful of Christmas parties and working full-time, we knew Christmas in Seattle still wasn't complete without another Ugly Sweater Party.
Let's make that the 3rd Annual Ugly Sweater Christmas Party.
Things were getting serious this year.
Seriously hideous.
Sarah & I made a quick visit to Value Village 
(cue Thrift Shop by Macklemore) 
and found quite the ugly collection.
Just in time.

The halls were decked, the lights all twinkling, & the eggnog poured.
We were ready to have ourselves the best damn Christmas party around.


Most of the party occurred in the garage.
Because we know how to keep it ugly.
Real ugly.









Eating dip off the top of a trash bin.
Yup. Classy.

These two love each other.



No party is complete without Flip Cup.



Something ridiculous just happened.





"Can I refill your eggnog for you? Get you something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead?" - Clark Griswold 
"Naw, I'm doing just fine, Clark" - Eddie
Another successful year.  Bring on the 4th annual next year.
We'll be ready for ya.

Shower the people you LOVE with love

Not only did I get one awesome bridal shower, but I got TWO.
And what better place to have a shower than Seattle?
We already had the rain, just needed the ladies & goodies!


My amazing Seattle ladies 
(plus awesome Maid of Honor & sister) 
put together quite the awesome little party.
"Around the Clock" themed with everyone bringing a gift from a different hour of the day!
Alena (the hostess with the mostest)  had everything organized to a T. 
Did I  mention decorated and CRAFTED to a T ??
She. is. fabulous.


Funfetti cupcakes, too
OBVIOUSLY.





LOTS of mimosas.

Lots of gifts, lots of food and TONS of smiles.
I have awesome friends.

Thanks ladies <3
