Of course, I could not start the party without my favorite drink, chocolate martini with a chocolate kiss at the bottom and sugar around the rim, yum!  Thanks, Geralyn she makes the best ones!  Smile  IMG_3722

We had our Chris Kringle, where everyone brings a gift, of course everyone was fighting over this clever money shirt Karen made.
