Holiday Party Time

Pretty Girls, Ugly SweatersAlthough I’m not particularly a fan of the office Christmas Party, I do like to attend others. I guess I have fears the office party would be like last weeks episode of “The Office”.  One of the drawbacks this year is that several parties are taking place at the same time, which has you picking which to attend. And the Victorian Front Porch Tour opens even more private events, assessable via the side doors of many homes on the Tour.   Buddy The Guys at the Ugly Sweater Party 2008Redman gave me a ride to a Friday event, only to forget I rode with him, and he left. He called Saturday morning to say he just remembered me. Lucky it was just a walk up Eighth Street to get home. The lesson from this is don’t get him to give you a ride to a party in Auburn.  Finally I found Abby’s House to attend a party there, before walking out on the cold night tour.  And the picture on this post, is one of the parties missed this year. Kate and Revel threw  an Ugly Sweater Party.  Obviously it was a Pretty Girl, Ugly Sweater Party.
