Ugly Sweater Parties

The Sunday before Christmas, Josh's family had an ugly sweater party. I had made big plans to do something cute, but then I was sick that week. In the end, I couldn't think of anything to do for my shirt, so I just wore a bow on my head. For Josh's shirt, I bought him a leg lamp stocking from "The Christmas story". We had it pinned on the back of his shirt, so when we walked in, everyone asked where his ugly sweater was. He turned around and most of the family laughed. (His mom HATES that show.)

Then on Christmas Eve Day, our office was open for half the day. They decided to do an ugly sweater party. I had planned to use the one I was going to make, but since I never got it made, I decided to wear the coat and hat from Josh's Santa suit. He wanted me to wear the beard, belly and pants too, but I told him I needed to be able to still function at my job.
