Christmas Party = Food + Gifts + Friends = FUN

One of the things I love most about Christmas are the parties..I'm not much of a gimikera, esp. now that I'm already a mom, but there's something about Christmas parties, gifts and food aside, that makes me feel fuzzy and happy. :) It's also having fun with friends, laughter, love, sharing and spreading the Christmas cheer...:)

We had the joint GCC-OMD Party (names of our teams in the office) last December 17 at Veranda in Parkmall with the theme sexy and sparkling. I actually had a hard time thinking of what to wear and buying the item for the exchange gifts. I didn't want to buy a new dress that I'd only wear for one occasion so I just checked my closet. I'm glad I found this dress that I'd had for years, but only wore twice or thrice...good thing it still fits me after pregnancy. hehe! But I don't feel as sexy in it anymore, as back in my pre-pregnancy days. Anyways, enough about vanity. =p

I loved the band...loved the vocalist! :) Unfortunately I wasn't able to get their name. And although the food wasn't that great, being with fun people made the party a real success. Congratulations to Angeli of Miss Enthusiast and Eric for organizing this fun fun party! :) 

The party would not be complete without a group picture..
