Rosie and Maximo were checking out the food.

The Food Was Great,

 But The Sweaters 

were so fun!

Then We played a Game.

We divided into 2  teams,

"Jingles" and "Bells"

Each team had to pick 

someone as team captain.

then I gave them a bag of "things".

They had to make an Ugly sweater, 

for the team Captain.

Who do you think won?

These next pictures are fun moments 

from the evening!

Colorado Snowman!

The end of his pipe fell off, 

so it looked like 

her snowman was smoking pot.

Maximo found a new friend.

Food, Friends and fun!

More Food, and Friends.

Maximo is making the rounds,

hoping for treats!

Maximo found another friend.
