I asked our guests to bring a couple dozen cookies (homemade or store-bought) and we had Starbucks giftcards for the best cookie and runner-up. It was a nice mix of friends and a few kids too! We had How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Home Alone playing silently in the background with an overlay of Pandora's Mariah Carey Christmas station. Sounds fun, right?
Here are a few highlights from the party (Mr. Love Bird was the photographer!):

| Me and my sister Ariane; she put up the decor in the background {inspired by Nat the Fat Rat} |

| We had such a fun array of cookies! |

Those cupcakes on the counter were incredible!

 |
| I spy two little playmates! (remember their first playdate???) |
 |
| Some of the leftovers ended up here as gifts the next day at church, and the others in an undisclosed location! |
 |
| Lil Love Bird was pooped by the time the party ended |
 |
| She was asleep within 10 minutes of the last guest leaving |
