This is a photo of me and my boyfriend Jakob at the BCE 08 (Best Christmas Ever). I was pretty convinced that Jakob was a pretty amazing guy, but the fact that he wore the tacky sweater I bought him and didn’t complain about it really convinces me. The idea of BCE was to wear the worst, tackiest Christmas sweater you could find. Our sweaters aren’t quite Christmasey, but they were way too good to pass up. I have sequence and shoulder pads and Jake’s sweater has about every color you would never want on a sweater and it seems as though the designer couldn’t quite make up their mind on what pattern they wanted to use. To top that off about 15 minutes into the party Jake found a lose thread on his sweater and it began to unravel. Don’t worry though we tied it up with a nice Gold Christmas bow so really it just made it that much better. One thing to say about the sweater is this… we definitely would’ve been looking good in the 80s. I just need a little more height to my hair and we’d be set to pary it up in 1985. : )
I think the winner of the night however was my lovely grandmother. Don’t be fooled, I know that some grandmas sometimes are quite tacky with their attire, but that has never been my grandma. She is quite hip and is always looking good. She was def. looking good the night of BCE and as usual she was the life of the party. : )
yeah I know your jealous that your Grandma doesn’t look like this. : )
So weather your family is tacky and wacky or reserved and cool
I am hoping that this Christmas is a very merry one for you!
gotta love the cosby sweater! (c:
and that gold bow on your grandma is perfection!!
That IS an ugly sweater you made him wear (I may have worn that actual sweater in 1984!?!). He MUST be a keeper.
You guys were definitely a great looking couple! It was such a fun night and glad you were a part of it.
By the way, I also had to pick myself up off the floor when I realized you’d actually blogged again!
