i thought long and hard about how i wanted to go about covering this...breaking it into parts was easy but then i decided that i wanted the wedding itself to be the last post...so im going to have to go out of order a bit...the christmas party actually happened the day after the wedding...but im going to talk about it first...well second...umm you know what i mean!
the christmas party was the brainchild of f.u.n...she usually has a christmas party every year the weekend before christmas...the fact that we were all going to be in st maarten that weekend didnt stop her...it also served as a nice thing for all of us to do together on or last night...
f.u.n decorated her room complete with fully decorated christmas tree and lots of lights and christmas cards and candy canes and other fun christmasy things...she played christmas music all night and had all sorts of food to pick on...like cheese and crackers and chips and all that good stuff...she did a really great job organizing everything...
the finishing touch to the party was the glow stick bracelets i handed out to everyone...i had the left over from 80s night on the cruise...so i figured i would bring them and pass them out at the reception...i totally forgot about them that night and saw them sitting in my room on saturday...so i brought them over to the christmas party...most people probably didnt care about them but i liked em...most of us were sitting outside so i thought it was great that everyone had a glow stick on...haha!
for the most part we all just hung out and chatted about all kinds of things...but my favorite part of the night is when we had a mini photo session...the boys went first...they all got together and took a picture but bff wasnt in it...this was funny because they know how upset he gets when they dont include him...of course he saw the photo happening and came running...when he got there they all walked away...wait...before i go any further i think it would be better if i show you instead of tell you...so here goes...haha!
 |
| hurry take the pic before bff gets here! |
 |
| oh no! here he comes...run away!! |
 |
| okay fine...you can be in the photo...but only if we lift you up... |
 |
| ...and throw you in the pool!!! |
 |
| we dropped him...lets roll him in!! |
 |
| still not in the pool...oh well...ride 'em cowboy! |
 |
| pyramid time!! |
 |
| please note tjd standing on the side thinking they are all nuts!!! |
next up was the girls turn...we couldnt come up with anything as awesome as a pyramid...boo!...so we just took a group shoot...and then we tried the whole jumping thing...it didnt really work out so well...but i cant help but laugh when i see the pictures because we really did try so hard to get it right but it just want working...
