The first annual Donovan Ugly Sweater Party was a big success! We had 21 in attendance, with the first guests arriving at 3 PM, the last going home around 4 AM, and our overnight guest heading home around noon the next day! For someone (ME!) who loves entertaining big crowds, laughter, and fun, this was one of the best nights of the year!
We played GAMES, ate too much FOOD, had a friendly COMPETITION with the ugly sweaters (with a SWEET prize!) and a ton of LAUGHTER!
REINDEER GAMES
Objection: Fill the balloons and put them into the legs of the pantyhose to create antlers. First team with 5 balloons per leg and the antlers on their head wins.

| The next morning the "antlers" were there to greet us when we went outside....at the TOP of our flag pole! Thanks, guys! Games ruled the night: along with the reindeer game, we played Bezzewizzer, Dirty Board, and 3 rousing rounds of Pictionary!     |
Thanks again to all who participated! We look forward to hosting again next year...hopefully with a bigger turn out! For those who hope to join us in the future, let me give you one tip for winning the coveted prize: BE PRACTICING YOUR RUNWAY WALK!
Maybe I'll fly instead of driving... Next years party will be a must attention on my list!
