Christmas Party

Last night was my Christmas Party.  It was a last minute decision to go and it was a good thing that we did.  I ended up winning one of the top door prizes that evening.  I won an iPod Touch.  I must say that it is pretty awesome.  I couldn't believe that I had won.  Everybody was asking me if I wanted to sell it.  Of course the answer was No.


I was able to get a couple of game apps and put a movie on it last night before our trip to Lexington today.  It was nice to have a distraction for the ride there and back.

Christmas Party and Lexington Christmas

We had my company Christmas Party last night.  It is the one time of the year where we get to get dressed up and go downtown.  We had a good time, but we didn't get to stay the whole time.

Today we drove to Lexington, NC to do Christmas with Brian's grandparents.  We took a different route and actually shaved some time off of our trip.  At the beginning of the week, it started out just being Brian, his mom and me.  By the end of the week the whole family was going.  Brian's grandparents sure liked the surprise!

Gilligan's Island

A friend and former co-worker of Brian's threw a Gilligan's Island theme party. Everyone had to dress up as a character from the show. You could be one of the main characters or one of the many visitors to the island. You know the ones that would show up and then find a way off the island by the end of every episode while the cast-a-ways were always stuck. Since I already went as Mary Ann a couple of years ago for Halloween, my costume was pretty much already picked out. Brian decided to go as Gilligan. The hardest part about his costume was finding the hat. You would think that living in a coastal region it would be easy, think again. We took turns going to different stores trying to find that stupid hat. We had fun and I thought that we looked pretty cute. Rumor has, it next year will be a Saturday Night Live them party, so any ideas or suggestions, let me know.
