Whoever came up with the idea to make ugly sweaters cool again for Christmas is a genius.

The pork looks delicious!
Weekend was busy with finishing shopping and doing the usual–workouts, cleaning, laundry, etc. Christmas came early in the form of new fleece sheets – my Lab approves. He’s snuggled in bed as I type this.

That is one jam packed weekend! But it all looks so wonderful and filled with great memories. And gotta say – I’ve always wanted to attend a holiday ugly sweater party.

There is nothing better than an Ugly Christmas Sweater Party!!! I am definitely missing it this year, having just moved to Australia. Too late now, but next year I think I will bring this amazing party theme to the land down under. Ugly Christmas Tank Tops?

What a fun weekend! That tree at the farm is so beautiful, wow!

You definitely had a fun-filled weekend! Very opposite of mine-I worked crazy hours last week, so come Friday I was exhausted. I got some workouts in, baked Christmas cookies, saw Anna Karenina and read a lot. Kind of lame, but relaxing!

Ugly sweater parties are so fun! Too bad I don’t have one planned this year-next year for sure! Looks like a crazy, holiday celebrating weekend!

We had a fun weekend too. We went to an ugly Christmas sweater party, and Sunday I went to my first crossfit class! LOVED it.

Looks like a great weekend!! I wish I could eat cheese because that champagne cheese sounds AMAZING!

Do you know how thrilled I am that you own/played cards against humanity?!? My best friend has it, and every time we burst out a game, we all laugh until we end up crying and the next day I have a stomachache from laughing too much. Lol, good ad workout for sure.

@miriam: AB workout…I meant AB :)

Hit or Miss! It’s the game we ALWAYS whip out at family gatherings – love it.

Whipped cream flavored vodka? Sign me up! That sounds awesome! :-)

I loooove cards against humanity. Oh my gosh, that always means the best game nights! What a great weekend!

Big hunk of cheese, glass of bubbly and some friends around a fire sounds pretty darn good to me!

Roz@weightingfor50 December 18, 2012 at 12:55 pm

Ok…I’m totally childish, ’cause I laughed out loud at the “cutting the cheese”. sigh. Maybe in 2013 I should resolve to act my age. Nah…what am I saying? Happy Tuesday Tina.

Reply

Tina December 18, 2012 at 1:00 pm

I’m glad you laughed! I made the “cut the cheese” joke like 10 times on Saturday night! Haha!

Reply

Katie December 18, 2012 at 1:01 pm

We JUST bought Cards for Humanity! It’s a little risque, I’m embarrassed to bring it out around certain people!

Reply

Tina December 18, 2012 at 1:16 pm

Haha! I know what ya mean! :)

Tamara @ The Stretch Jean Incident December 18, 2012 at 1:02 pm

LOVE Cards Against Humanity! Definitely not for the easily-offended, but super hilarious! My husband and I played this with some friends over Thanksgiving and I snagged a set of their holiday-themed cards last week. Best party game ever!

Tina December 18, 2012 at 1:16 pm

Ha! So true! :)

How long do you think it is going to take you to finish off that wheel of cheese?! haha, it is massive!

Love holiday parties. How fun that your box puts a festive party together for all of you :)

Such a great weekend! That martini looks delicious! I just love this time of year. :)

Lindsay December 19, 2012 at 7:02 am

We just had a holiday party and played Catchphrase, which was a hoot…especially when our expat buddies couldn’t guess the “only in ‘Merica” clues! Game nights are the BEST;) And I LOVE Mal’s Grinch shirt!
