Weekend Update - 12/12/2011

{8+ hours in the car this weekend but well worth it}

Back from another fun weekend in Boston for my friend Jenn's holiday party. After a day full of cooking / errand running Saturday, it all came together quite nicely to make for a merry little gathering. Ok, there was over 50 people so 'little' isn't the most accurate descriptor. Four more holiday parties this week...absolutely love this time of year. How was your weekend?
