Tis the Season to be Merry

Hi Everyone. The picture was taken at Charles's office Christmas party at his boss's home on Saturday. We missed this party last year, because it fell on the same weekend as Lauren and Brian's wedding. They served lots of appetizers and then we had dinner.
Our weekend was jam packed with holiday events. Friday night, we went to a friend's house were she hosted a holiday dinner party. Talk about being the hostess with the mostest, she printed out and framed the menu for everyone to see. Her party will leave me with a lasting impression of the ultimate host as she grilled flank steak in a cocktail dress and heels! What a way to "man" the grill!

Sunday included more holiday festivities as I attended a complimentary Pottery Barn holiday decorating class with two friends of mine. The class was a great spark to get ideas and your mind going. Later on, Charles and I got our Christmas tree. The tree is our biggest one yet! Our manger is up, our mantel is dressed and the tree is trimmed!
