Celebrity Christmas {Re-CAP!}

Celebrity Christmas Party

 2011

hosted by: US

Its become a tradition {for the past two years} we have a Christmas Party.

The first year is was Tacky Sweater & Christmas 2010 it was

Santa's Little Helpers aka Tacky Christmas.

Both were GREAT turn outs.

This year I thought it would be fun to change it up -

Remember this post where I explained giving everyone different options

Well Celebrity Christmas won.

At first I thought - YIKES! This is gonna be hard!

Then I thought - How can I make it NOT halloween.

Well... it was definitely a costume party .... at Christmas time.

Take a look.

When I think of celebrity - I think {Red Carpet}

So I set up an area in my back room where everyone could capture their

"Red Carpet Pose"

This is our friends Kristie {she blogs} & Michael - who were....

Duh - Paula Abdul & Simon Cowell off of X- Factor

& then Aaron and myself.

Who are we? Uhhh ...

Duh....

Lady Gaga & Lil Wayne.

 

Paula & Simon arrived before anyone else, therefore we were able to really

take advantage.

See my Santa hat?

hands down best part of my outfit.

Check out Lady Gagas Red Carpet pose ----

Oh yes. I'm amazing.

I'm gonna MARRY ... the night!

How about Lil Wayne?

Okay, Lil Wayne loved himself a LITTLE too much on this night.

He had poses coming out let and right.

his 'grill'

my favorite picture...

He was wearing Christmas Boxers!

Yay!

Yes. That Lil Wayne is the SAME.GUY.I'M.MARRIED.TO!

hilarious.

Why LiL Wayne?

because my Man-Child loves to make it rain.

no- HA! I'm kidding...

On a serious note, he loves Lil Waynes song

'Howdda Loooove' - and sings is every.single.day.

but only those two words.

For those who thought Miranda & Blake should have been our

celebrities... he said Blake is great, but lame as a costume.

I thought different too.

Enough of us.

Moving along...

Do THESE two characters look familiar?

the correct answer is my sister & brother in law.. yes

but on THIS night they were

Troy & Elizabeth

CHOOT'EM!

Com'on...

Swamp People folks!!!!

How about some....

Katy Perry {with her new hair}. Duh!

Rachel even drew on her tattoo... how fun!

We had TWO

Peggy & Al Bundys

Danielle & Nic

& then Brittany & Gary also...

Loved the Peggy & Al celebrities!

LAST YEARS WINNERS

were Candice & Daniel...

They didn't win this year, SHE was right on top!

Snookie & Larry the Cable Guy.

Daniel didn't have to do much to play his part -

Candice was awesome!

However, please understand she was a BEDTIME snookie.

The NEXT celebrity isn't so much the 'red carpet' girl & also not pregnant

with twin girls in real life like Shanna is....

Can you guess?

It's FLO-

Progressive Insurance!

Doesn't she look JUST.LIKE.HER?

Next up, our friend Nathan

he wasn't willing to sing 'Ain't Nothing but a Hound Dog'

for me - however I did get him to pose on the red carpet with

Lady Gaga!

Meet Elvis!

{horrible picture of GAGA}

Now - since we are in the Elvis days...

take your brain just a little further back..........

Who are these people?

You got it.

Audrey Hepburn &....

Charlie Chaplin.

Now...

when my friend Heather told me who they were gonna be

I about died because really... they do look like these two people

with or WITHOUT their wedding day look.

No she didn't have a big white poofy gown...

but she is still in white -

Nick Lacey & Vanessa

Before I introduce you to our last red carpet celebrity

AKA 2011 Winners -

go ahead and save your energy & words.

Aaron and I were NOT in the competition -

We are the hosts - we do NOT win our own goodies.

I say this because NOBODY agreed with me at the party.

They wanted Aaron to win.

This years winners were...

DUN DUN DUN

Katy Perry & Russell Brand

They won a $25 gift card to Chili's

& for those who didn't dress up {Jon aka Flo's husband}

they received....

Now that I've explained who we ALL were & other random details...

let's have some fun with entertainment; games!

Remember ... Okay, I don't expect you to but we played the Question Game last year.
SO.MUCH.FUN!rules: everyone writes a question down on a piece of paper {any question}then you draw a question out {can't be your own} and write your answer down.Sit in a circle & a random person starts... when person A asks their question person B answers it with their answer.then person B asks their questions and person C answers it with the answer they wrote down... and it goes on and on - it becomes quite hilarious. then we played 'Dirty Santa'.One gift per invitation brought a $15 gift and ...you know this game.
 Lil Wayne trying to get Katy Perry to take the cheese plate...it didn't work out so well.
 
Below is Jeremy & Brycelynaka a modern day Faith & Tim..They never made it to the Red Carpet...{where's frankie? our elf on the shelf?} 

 see our TV? See where we had 'Christmas Music' Playing? Okay well it didn't work out so because...my husband irritated me to the TAR because he kept playing 'Howdda LOOOOVE'SO LOUD and Proud. He flew to the naughty list that night.But.. at least he was playing his part.
Snookie traded her 'risque' gift for a cookie maker. Another game thing I did wasinstead of ALL the goodies going to the winner I decided this yearto make a raffle drawing. As soon as our guests walked in our home they were asked to draw on of these... 

they tore one off & the other in a mason jar.

Throughout the night I drew {5} different celebrity names

& whoever had that name won a present.

I'm so upset because I didn't get one - NOT ONE picture of all food I prepared & Holiday decor... my favorite part of hosting a party. This is not like me to forget such an importantpart. I worked ALL.WEEK.LONG on baking and preparing the food. But I did snap a picture with my phone days before the big night {after preparing them} of my CUTE cute for everyone to drink out of... {orignally bought these for our wedding party to have, only they were decorated differently. HAD to get use out of them.}

I may have forgotten about taking pictures of  all my food but... I didn't forget about entertainment for our guests, which is most important. I got boo-hoodles  of 'photo booth pictures'.Something I added this year. 

  

 {i have no idea what im doing} 

The Lips, Moustaches, & Microphoneswere a few of the handmade items I made for our bridal partypictures come the wedding day... however they were forgotten about.Soooo... I refused to NOT let them go to waste.  The photo booth was a wonderful turn out.Everyone LOVED it. ------------------------------------------------------- Ohhh.. I did happen to snap a picture with my phone a few days before the party of another NEW thing I added this year...ToGo boxes....

How fun????
