Annual Solie Christmas Party

This year, our annual celebration for the holidays was filled with joy! We always have the celebration on the second Saturday in December. We celebrated with some of our closest friends. We are so blessed to have such wonderful people to share our lives with! We had a wonderful turn out, the weather cooperated this year too!

Some of our wonderful friends in their Ugly Christmas Sweaters! A lot of people dressed up this year too! It is a silly tradition, but fun none the less! I would have to say that my husbands shorts and socks were the highlight of the wardrobe this year!

I am so unbelievably excited for three of our close friends to have babies next year! I cannot wait!  Josh and I found each baby a little something this year, this was especially sweet for our good friends Todd and Claudia, as it was their first gift for baby! It is crazy to think that next years party may include a bunch of kiddos, as more of our friends will have kids then not! Yay!!!  Lives are about to change, but only for the better!!!

The beautiful bride to be and her handsome fiance even made it to the party! It was so nice to spend time with the special people who we seldom get to see during the holidays.

It wouldn't be the Christmas party without a ridiculous amount of delicious food! Josh and I were very busy this week preparing the food for the party but it is so worth it to watch everyone enjoy eating so much! We had Swedish meatballs, cheese dip, bacon wrapped shrimp, roll ups, cheese balls, Carmel puff corn, chex mix, bagel dip, meat and cheese trays, tons of cookies, veggie pizza, taco dip, and all kinds of other dips and snacks! A new favorite this year was the Sweet Ham and Swiss Sammie's! I will hopefully be sharing some of the recipes soon on my blog!
