Random Christmas-ness

Chris and I attended an Ugly Sweater party and if you can believe it, we didn't win. If you saw the winners you'd know why. It was a fun night out. I am still a little bummed that I forgot about the yams Kelly was hiding under her chair during our white elephant exchange. I did come home with some awesome green jello though!
Chris has turned lately to baking cupcakes as a little hobby. Mostly because I am addicted to Cupcake Chic and he is on the hunt to make cupcakes that don't cost $2.50/cupcake. He made some for the kids bake sale during the carnival and was asked to make some for the teachers during Christmas. So he did, 5 dozen. I guess they were a hit because when I went back to pick up the trays, they were gone. Thanks honey!

Quite the Cupcake Chef! Loved the costumes and girls for their dance! Wish I could have been there to see it! Sally as Santa, cute! ♥

Santa Salli is maybe one of the best things I've ever seen. I LOVE it. And I really love that Chris's new hobby is making cupcakes, I only wish we were neighbors so that I could benefit a lil bit, they look gorgeous, AND delicious.

MMmmm, can I get some of those recipes?! I got the Hello, Cupcake book for Christmas, now I just need some awesome flavors to match the fun ideas!
