Here's the story: When my very good friend Karie and I were living together we thought it would be great to have everyone over for a little Holiday Happy Hour - we made some cheap snacks and put most of the money towards a keg (naturally - we were in our twenties!). The party was a success and the meatballs were a huge hit - some people tried to eat them while they were cooking, they were so popular! A tradition was born, and we've had a Merry Meatball Madness holiday party every year since. Now you know...
There they are... the famed Meatballs. No they don't come in different flavors - just 'Marvelous Meaty Meatball'. No complaints yet!
Ah -
The traditional mother/daughter photo. My moms - Patty, Me, Karie, and her mom, Gail. Next year will be ten years of MMM, and we will be trying to get all the photos together. It will be awesome, I'm sure.
What an all-star shot!
Steve and Tony discuss something captivating in the background while beauties Britt, Kyndee, and Trish talk about... possibly Daughtry?
Look who's all warm inside with the M&M's, Dorito's, and Java
That is the lovely imprint of Sonji's beautiful face. It's not a party until someone runs into the door, gets gum in the carpet, attempts to steal the keg, or spills red wine... one out of four isn't bad for one year.
Trish LOVES that sweater...
Sometimes a hug can heal anything. That looks like a good hug.
