Last Friday night I had a little Christmas Dinner for a few close friends. I requested everyone wear an ugly sweater or sparkles. Both were preferred.
There was so much good food! Roasted potatoes, macaroni, pork tenderloin, buffalo chicken dip, green beans and bacon, veggie pizza. I know I'm missing something. These delicious things from Giant Eagle, that I think are called Gobs, but I called them "Goos". Maybe I'm still getting it wrong? Either way, they're delicious.
I'm so glad everyone could come and dressed festive!

I have always wanted to host some kind of party at my house, so this was the perfect opportunity. I planned it way back in the fall. I think everyone had fun. I hope they did anyway. It was so great seeing so many of my friends that aren't friends with each other come together. Most everyone that I invited only knew me, but by the end of the evening everyone was talking and joking around. We went on to Woodland's Tavern after dinner because they were having an "Ugly Sweater Party." Well, the party must have got cancelled, because Tricia and I were the only ones there with a sweater on! Oh well. :)
And the best part of the whole evening was knowing that most of the people at the party I didn't even know a year ago. Or if I knew them, I just knew of them or we had hung out a few times. Now I consider them to be some of my closest friends. I'm so thankful for that.
