Christmas Sweater Countdown



Okay so can I tell you just how much I love my family? Last year my sister Sarah and her husband wowed us all with their festive Holiday Sweaters. This was the only pic I could find of them in their masterpieces but it just doesn't do them justice. Eric's had a v-neck with a turtle neck underneath framed by some gold trimming to give it a more classy look. Sarah's cardigan was decorated with lots of Christmas jolly both on the front and back. I think we even named them if I remember correctly. This year we have been challenged to top their past creations. To be honest, I am feeling a little nervous. My family is quite the crafty bunch and I've got some stiff competition. Unfortunately all I've come up with have been inappropriate (a naughty elf is not something for the whole family to see) or the obvious completely expected tacky sweater that we all know so well. You know what I'm talking about. Your grandma has one, or maybe has sent you one in the mail as a present... Anyways - I am open to any suggestions and will keep you posted on any new developments.

good luck with beating everyone on the ugliest sweater...I have complete faith in you. How did they even think of such a thing? Definitely send pics when you guys where them. Have a great Thanksgiving!

You are so going down! Eric and I started ours on Saturday...but wait until you see dad's masterpiece! I can't believe how creative he is, although mom vetoed part of it because it was inappropriate. Gross but kinda funny.
