It’s been a whirlwind of holiday parties here in Nashville and I’ve been happy to partake!
Teddy never recovered from last weekend’s events, therefore he was bound and determined to get me to stay home by laying on my blazer as I party primped Friday night.
And of course I was able to coax Ted off with a little help from my sparkling accessories with which he’s enamored.
Being in charge of my company’s party, I was on hand early to help set up.

The Great Room at Fontanel Mansion. One of about 40 rooms in Barbara Mandrell’s previous home.
Of course I took about 4,256 photos (which I will be sharing later!) but one of our party goers had a sparkle lens. YES I SAID A SPARKLE LENS!

My mom and I in all of our sparkle glory. I need a fancy camera just so I can obtain this fabulous lens.
Working at a production company, I’m surrounded by overloads of testosterone daily. Here’s a small dose of my workplace ‘brothers.’
And with an open bar, bruises like this are bound to be acquired. I think the purple, green and yellow bruising just add to all of my holiday fun (just makes Christmas shopping a little more painful).
Upon recovering from my Friday night shenanigans, I was off to a birthday party Saturday afternoon.
And then a date with my 30 ounce glass of merriment. A favorite holiday glass – not only because it holds almost an entire bottle of wine but it also has quite the clever take on a Christmas song.
All Teddy could do was cat nap on Sunday and I can’t say that I blame him.
Teddy looks how I still feel on Monday morning, sitting at work wishing it Friday at five.
Thank God the holidays only come once a year!
