Cousin Eddie and lots of twinkle lights

This last weekend we went to an ugly sweater party.  Matt took that to mean 'dress like cousin Eddie from Christmas vacation'.  So we went to a thrift store and purchased all necessary clothes, and Karla got a bad red sweater and decided to put lots of bows on it.  Extra hideous.  After cutting up a turtleneck to look like a Dickie and putting on a sweater about 2 sizes too small, the effect had been reached.  The party was lots of fun, and it started to snow during it, making it feel more like the holiday season. 

As if all that weren't enough to get in the holiday spirit, we decided to go with Ryan and Naomi to the lights at the Denver botanic garden on Sunday night.  It was especially cold, but some hot some hot cocoa and hot cider made it all worthwhile.  We drove around after looking at Christmas lights, capping off a fun weekend.
