TaCkY sweater, Christmas Party!

we had a tacky sweater party for our christmas party this year at dave's work. it was pretty fun to hang out with the people dave is always working with.

the kids with their cousin jade before we left. jades daddy works with dave so she got to stay at our house...

dave and me in our tacky sweaters. i puffy painted "mr" and "mrs" on them. dave looks like such a dork with his hair slicked to the side and that goofy look on his face!!!

all the participants....

the judges discussing....

THE WINNER!!!!.......
