Ugly Sweater Party

We went to an ugly sweater party that a couple in our ward was hosting.  It was SO much fun!! As we were looking for sweaters we had terrible luck and went to a few 2nd hand stores and couldn't find anything.  My cousin had one that she said I could borrow and the one Bryson is wearing we found in the women's section at Good Will!  And it sure did look like a woman's sweater, but he rocked it and was a good sport.  He also HAD to wear his wool hat, I begged him not to because he looked hideous, but he said, "It's an UGLY sweater party, what do you expect?" After that comment I couldn't complain any longer and he did indeed wear the hat all night long.  He got comments from all the other husbands at the party on his hat, it must be a guy thing? We took couples pictures, ate delicious dinner and desert, then made gingerbread "houses" but not really houses.  It was a contest to see who was the most creative/the best. I don't think we ever decided on a winner. 

Our first pose, Bryson is supposed to be Rudolf but the antlers are in my face and he is using the red nose as an eye patch and has a creepy mustache with a creeper look on his face... He was being crazy all night, I blame it on the hat!!!


Bryson again Rudolf, without the eye patch, but with a mustache?


One without the props, don't know what that white spot on my face is. 


Close up of the sweaters and of course the hat!


We decided to do a helicopter, I think it turned out pretty good for using graham crackers and frosting! Bryson came up with the idea and constructed most of it, I mostly helped by eating frosting and decorating a little, haha


The finished project!


Finally a pic without that dumb hat, I begged him!


The Whitings made a roller coaster! It was awesome!


Trenton and Ashley made a swimming pool, it was so cute!  There is a bear on a noodle,diving in, laying out in the back, so creative!


The Mullenauxs made a Trojan horse, pretty sweet too!

 We had a ton of fun! We ate a ton of food and candy and laughed till we cried.  Thanks again Whitings for hosting such a fun party!! They went to a lot of work for it and it turned out great!
