    We actually have to figure that out tonight! His family has a big Christmas shindig every year, and they finally let us know the date of that. So now we have to pin down a date for ours. The family one is the 19th, so ours will more than likely be the 12th.

    I'm so excited!

    I just had a convo with FI about starting a tradition when we move and get married of having an Ugly Christmas Sweater Party!  He thinks no one would show except me because no one goes to those parties.  Now I can prove him wrong.  HA!

    That is hysterical! I've never really heard of an official ugly Christmas party before! I want pix of all your parties!

    If I was going to one of these parties I'd totally wear a light-up Christmas sweater like Rudy had on the Cosby Show! Anyone remember that episode? LOL

    I'm trying to find a sweater that lights up, but no go so far. :/

    Might have to improvise. Also, I'm wearing a full on ugly outfit. Gold pants, scrunchy, antlers... oh yeah.

    LMAO Layla! I just texted my friend like 2 seconds ago and said I wanted to find one that lights up, and she replied back and said that's what her boyfriend just said too. Light up sweaters are going to be all the rage this year it seems! hehe

    OMG! Those are great! The guy in the green sweater takes the cake. And the girl in the last photo of course. What did she use to attach the bulb that she feels so confident about?

    Holy rudolph boob! Lmao!!!

    The guy in red in the snowy scene is the one I used for my facebook evite.

    Was anyone else a Star Trek TNG fan? I had a HUGE crush on Wil Wheaton - so I was really happy when a pic of him in an ugly sweater popped up on a google image search of ugly sweaters. But..... so did the cat.... wtf?

    Do any of you have your sweaters yet? I went to Goodwill last night and looked but nothing really spoke to me LOL. There were lots of REALLY ugly everyday sweaters, but none of the Christmas ones were ugly enough for me! Will have to look somewhere else!

    I just got invited to an Ugly Sweater party that's December 18th! So excited! CW isn't crazy about the idea - he made me swear I would never wear one of those "ugly themed sweaters" ever. Ugh. I think I'm gonna take back my promise.

    Lol @ honeybun! Great minds think alike!!

    I  haven't found mine either. A lot of my guests have had a lot of luck on ebay, but nothing on there spoke to me (at least, in my price range). It may be time to take a quasi ugly sweater and DIY into fugly oblivion.
