Our friends the Kearls threw an Ugly Sweater/Gingerbread House Party on Saturday. LOTS of yummy goodness, I repeat, LOTS of yummy goodness.
No ugly sweater is complete without nasty cargos, reindeer antlers, and a gnarly bow on top o' thee head.
No hostess has worn slick pants like these since the 80's. Way to pull it off, Linds!
Me working on that "I'm beginning to look a lot like Santa" piece.
Good friends Pat & Lindsay modeling their Festive Sweaters...which Lindsay totally made!
Pumpkin cookies, made by yours truly, which for whatever reason did not win. But again, I'm not bitter. Very, very happy for the winners. See my smiley face :)
Yet again, do you see why I'm Beginning to Look a lot Like Santa?
Gingerbread House toppings...toddler appropriate, of course.
Avy decorating her house with goldfish & Froot Loops (which by the way she had for the first time and LOVED a bit too much).
PS- The frosting recipe for these gb-houses is like concrete. Let me know if you need a super-great recipe to make your holiday habitat. Thanks for passing it on Lindsay Y!
Looks like this lil guy is joining my 30,000 calories a day club too.

Oh my gosh...you are so brave! That party was so cute...love the toppings and staggered juice boxes!
Excuse me, I thought you said 21 toddlers. Yikes! You are a super mom! Gotta love the weather!
Hey...now why aren't I invited to any of these shin digs! Oh yea, I live in St. George in a nieghborhood where everyone is old. I bet I could find lots of ugly sweater participants in my neghborhood. So I loved the bow in the hair, oh and I have to tell you, I wore jeans and black boots just like you had on yesterday. Great minds think alike, eh? Oh and whatever you are looking like Santa, you look skinnier than I have ever seen you miss Hayley Sassofrat pants! I am still working on the last 10 lbs I want to loose of Brigham fat (thanks Briggs), but why try during the holidays. Oh and one more thing, I mean this is already a long post, a few more lines won't make a difference, if I was at the cookie party I would of chose your pumpkin cookies for sure. They are my favorite, in fact I ate two before I started blogging.....mmmmm, belly expanding!
Did I tell you that I am moving down there so I can join in all the fun? I am sure that it is so nice to be able to be outside this time of year. You are wonder woman!!

Such a fun month you are having already, and you still have more weeks to go :) I love all the holiday parties also. Thanks for inviting us to the Gingerbread party, the kids had a blast! I am feeling the same way you are these days, and looking more and more like Santa. :) But you still look hot in your skinny jeans!
Seriously??? 21 toddlers? That is BRAVE, and way to much fun. Oh, and go ahead and box me up some of those cookies. Yum yum
