let's get tacky!!!

Some girlfriends and I decided a tacky Christmas sweater party was just needed this year. We all put on our finest tacky gear and came together for some gumbo and holiday cheer.

 The Tisons supplied the piggies in a blanket and the Little Debbie Christmas tree cakes. We also rocked our tacky Christmas sweaters that we made 3 years ago!

Why are these two so excited? Because they just won a buffet lunch for 2 at Golden Corral for being the tackiest (and most creative) people at the party!

Stay tacky my friends.

no time like the present...

Isn't the week before Christmas just glorious!? I feel like everyone is walking around with a smile on their face. There is a steady rush of traffic searching for the perfect gift, festive holiday cards in the mailbox, neighborhoods lit with twinkle lights, delicious gift baskets filled with more sweets than should be allowed in my presence... the collective intent of goodwill to all is palpable. The Christmas parties ain't bad either...

(I have so many pictures of me making faces at Ty while he snaps away...ah, don't i look pleased?!)

(I am full of faces-awkward, silly, big teeth grin... I really need to start practicing in the mirror.)

we're dreaming of a tacky Christmas....

Last night Tison and I made tacky Christmas sweaters in preparation for various holiday happenings. It was so much fun! Even though I had to brave the roads with all the crazy Christmas shoppers to get supplies, it was totally worth the end result.

{Even the dogs got in on the action... I don't think they were as excited about it though.}

 {What?? Just wearing our normal work attire...}
