A yuletide bash

We had a Christmas gathering at our home this past weekend. At one point there were 18 adults, 6 children under the age of 2, and 3 babes in the womb. Goodness! If you've ever been in our humble abode, you know that this means we were quite snug.

I bought some fabric at Ikea and asked my mom to make us some stockings. She's amazing! They turned out awesome!

My dad even helped by taking the little magnetic letters that cover our fridge back home and tracing them onto the felt. It truly was a team effort. :)

And now on to the party:

 If you haven't ever had eggnog covered almonds, you're missing out!! So good!

I know this might sound silly, but I was SO excited to use these napkins. :)

 White elephant gift exchange. We had some of the oddest gifts!

 This was one of the odd gifts. :)

Overall it was enjoyable and a real hit. But man, we were tired! Planning get togethers are hard work!
