This year we had Christmas Eve at my parents' house with all my brothers and sisters and their kids.
It was, of course, insane.
We had an ugly sweater contest.
Wow - there were some real winners!
All the Merrell Ladies
The Richardson's.
Including Tyler in his festive Chip n' Dale ensemble.
My brothers Erin and Blake
My Parents Dean and Peggy
(with whom Joel and I tied for
the ugliest "couples" sweaters)
Me and my Joelseff.
Joel picked out our sweaters. Aren't they awesome!? I'm almost positive that Joel's is a
Bill Cosby duplicate.
The Spratlings
And the winner:
My hilarious Mom.

Ok, I am cracking up over here at how incredibly ugly your sweater is! While everyone else's are bad, I'm pretty sure yours takes the cake! But yet you can somehow pull it off and make it look cute! And I love the Bill Cosby comment... it really made me laugh out loud. You guys are so funny and it seems like your family is a riot! I'm glad you had such a fun Christmas!
I love this post... and I love our family! You captured the ugly sweaters incredibly well!
I am so laughing up my breakfast right now. Love the sweater there Lisa. Too funny. The Bill Cosby thing was a good comparison. You are way too funny gal.
All I can say is WOW!
I totally love all the sweaters, but your mom was the clear winner.
You guys are so fun! Our family got together and went to see the lights on temple square....so boring compared to you...sigh.
I agree with Jen. My family is boring compared to your family! It looks like so much fun! Can I come next year?? :)
I was going to vote for your mom's too. I actually liked yours Lisa, with a nice pair of Turquoise stirrup pants you would have quite the outfit!

ok what a fun idea your family did! your mom does have a great sweater with a broach on it but i am going to have to say i think you win :)
Hey, "all's I can say" is that if Jen and Jamie think they had a boring family Christmas party, it sounds like they all made up for it on New Year's Eve. Mary made up a "whole batch" of swaub (hmm, how is that spelled?) and the Hansens drank it darn near up according to reports. Then came the wii battles and Duane and Mary had a hard time not throwing gutter balls. Then came the certain hour when they all got slap happy and everything was funny! So it sounds like them Hansens was whoopin it up purty good!
