Bougie Charcuterie!

Saturday night was Chet's 4th Annual Bougie Charcuterie Board Party, a Christmas season favorite!!

Classic pic with the Wilsons & Fultons!

Leaning in for an important conversation over pre-party coffee (and hot chocolate) with Sarah Elizabeth!

Three impressive charcuterie boards... the Wilsons go all out for this annual party, providing all this food + puppy chow, rosemary focaccia bread, cranberry cream cheese dip, crockpot hot chocolate, cranberry punch, McAlister's tea, chips + spinach and artichoke dip, a sushi platter, and probably more that I'm forgetting!

I was thankful to catch up with Mark Anthony and Jeffrey Edward, two of my favorite guys!  Mark is entrepreneurial and ready for me to start my own counseling business... (and I'm very ready to partner with him and Rachel on that a couple years from now)!  JEM and I talked about his latest Vegas trip along with future goals and plans!
*Thanks again to Rach for my cute Christmas tree sweater!

Karli Marie with her festive Christmas bows and flashing Christmas light earrings!

Chettles invites the whole world for this one, so he gave us nametags in case everyone wanted to mingle and get to know each other.  Definitely stuck with people I already knew, but that was a thoughtful idea! lol

Our second year of Christmas carols around the piano did not disappoint - fun times laughing and singing along with JEM and Sarah, our lead vocalists!

Chet:  "I think people worry it'll be awkward, then everyone gets into it!"

Rachel:  "Yeah, it feels wholesome and goofy in the best way!"

My new fav pic of the guys. lol

Me (grabbing the cute sign by their front door):  Here, hold this up!

JEM:  Is this some kind of an inside joke or something?? lol

Me:  No, I just think the sign is fun and wanted a pic with it!

Worth it!! lol

Snapshots that make me happy...

Sarah Elizabeth had everyone sign a card for me finishing grad school - love it!

Kerri and Rachel by the Disney tree!

Me and Rachel Elizabeth - she was really encouraging in our talk about future career options!

Sixteen years ago today, I met Chet and Sarah at a Christmas party - so huge thanks to Bobbi for inviting Chettles to that event and for pairing me with them at my NYE scavenger hunt a couple weeks later! lol

Piano duet with Parker Elizabeth! ❤❤

Thankful for the wonderful Wilson fam and their very festive nine-outdoor wreaths and four-indoor-Christmas-trees home!! ❤
