Christmas Party

I'm disgusted with myself.  I'm obsessed with taking photos of every part of our lives to preserve the memories ya know?  Yet despite this - our annual Christmas Party is void of all cameras.  This year Mr Big and I vowed that it would be different and yet...it wasn't.  The only picture I had time to take was of Miss Lois's handbag and innards.  But before we talk about lovely Lois let me say that this was the best party so far.  Mr Big and I worked like home depot pickup guys that hadn't seen work for several weeks - rising at 8.30am and basically not sitting till 3.30am.  But everyone seemed to have fun so it was all worth it.

Highlights included:
The beverages
  • Peartini which was Pear Vodka, Cranberry Juice, Apple Juice, Vermouth
  • Orange Currant Fizz which was Orange Liqueur, Cassis and German Sparkling Wine
  • and the star of the show "Blitzen" which was Silver Tequila, Red Grapefruit Juice, Grenadine, Lime Juice
The surprise guests
  • Ryan, John's partner came.  This may seem like a non-interesting point to most of you -  but when you understand I've known John for 5 years and this only the second time I've met him.  He's a complete delight and I called him my Christmas miracle.
  • 2nd - I got to meet unnamed friends unnamed boyfriend
  • 3rd - Keisha dear Keisha was there with her lovely new man
The surprise yoga lesson
Thanks Caitlin, I've always wanted to see "the bow" in action.  You are a flexible lady!!

We are so so blessed with all the lovely people we have in our life.  Thank you all for your friendship and for all you add to our lives on a daily basis.  WE LOVE YOU!

So back to photos - I present to you ....Lois and her brown carry all


its amazing how much us gals can pack in our bags - and just how much is necessary to carry with us, just look at my pal Lois - a. never knew you were a pen collector friend, I will know who to turn to next time if I need one :-) b. a women after my own heart - she travels with all the local players cards for the casinos!  Ready to gamble at a moments notice (I've been known to enjoy a flutter myself)


Thanks for sharing Lois.
