B and I went to his company's Christmas party tonight, so I made the babysitter take a few pics once we got home. We rarely get pics of just the two of us anymore, and since we were dressed up, I thought it was a good opportunity. We had a lot of fun at the party. He works with really nice people (mostly men), and I definitely enjoyed myself. He did too.
Tomorrow night is my Christmas party (it's just for our staff, so B is staying home with Spence), and Saturday night is our neighborhood tree toasting, so it's a BUSY weekend. Fun though, so I can't complain!! Neither night will be super late, so I'm not too worried about being as tired as I was last weekend. The neighborhood party could end up being a late night, but it's nice that B will be able to stay if he wants, and I'll be able to be in bed at a decent hour. It's a really fun evening. We start at one of our neighbor's homes for chili and cocktails and then go around house to house to look at everyone's tree and then end up back at the first house for the rest of the evening. We had a blast last year!!
As you can tell in the above pic, I'm obviously sporting a bump now (though that pic makes me look bigger than I actually am- I think it's the angle). I made the dress from this tutorial and am quite happy with the results. I'm planning on wearing it to church on Christmas Eve as well. I have another long sleeved shirt and more fabric and I think I'm going to make another one that is more work appropriate after the holidays are over.
I'm sure you all are just as crazy this weekend and next. I hope it's all fun stuff, and I hope you are also able to get your lists checked off in the down time!! I have to round this weekend as well as the above social stuff, but I'm hoping to get a few more baking things done as well as wrapping some gifts and addressing our Christmas cards which arrived this week!! We've already received two in the mail from truly organized friends of mine :) Have a great weekend!!
LOVE the dress, great pics of you both!
