This is Happening….

Today at work today we are having an ugly Christmas sweater party!
 Thanks to my wonderful neighbor, I am decked out! I even made a headband to match. We’ll be voting today and the person with the ugliest outfit wins $100!
I think my co-worker has me beat for best/ugliest outfit. If I didn’t love her so much I’d be so mad at her!
And in case you were wondering I am, in fact, also wearing red shoes!
