I brought Laney for the first part of the night! She got an awesome alligator xylophone from Aunt Raegan & a fabulous UNC cheerleader outfit from Kaitlin (well, Mic thinks it's awesome...and I guess I do too, on her) . Thanks again guys!
Later, the contest began & you could definitely feel the seriousness come over the room. We divided into
teams & off we went. We had the same amount of supplies - so we had to be very creative! Kaitlin & I thought out each wall of the house & planned before anything was touched! We included flower boxes, windows, a front door, and even a cul-de-sac w/ a Christmas tree. Raegan & Andrea's roof definitely was superior to ours. I think some one's ADD kicked in...hmm! We were all very careful not to even look into the other team's room where they were so meticulously working.
We finished our masterpieces & took pictures from all sides. We then sent them via picture-message to 3 people who would then judge them & choose their favorite. Again, Raegan & Andrea's roof was by far the best, but mine & Kaitlin's won over all!! We were so excited!! We now have bragging rights for a whole year, because yes, there will be another contest next Christmas!
I enjoyed this night so much & love being able to share memories like these with such
wonderful friends! I love you all & cherish the times we've had & I look forward to the many, fun times ahead!
