Classy Christmas Party

Twas the night before last and all through Jessi's house not a person wasn't working-

not even the mouse

The tables were set by the chimney with care 

with the hope that our guests would soon be there.

The Girls of 897 were all nestled in the kitchen

With visions of pumpkin lasagna, pizza, and pasta danced in their heads

Jessi and Mela in their aprons and I in mine too

had just settled into a long winters prep

The doorbell started going off in such a clatter

I left the kitchen to see what was the matter

I went to change in such a flash

to put on my sequin skirt with a sash

"Now dinner group boys,

on Jerusalem friends

now church friends

and other great ones too"

To the top of the tree to the bottom of food line everyone was scattered

and all you could hear was sophisticated chatter

We were serenaded by the sweet sounds

For there was no frowns

We raised our glasses filled with bourbon

And we took photos that are so urban

We ate and drank the night away 

Families assembled as they may

This night had to come to a close and everyone went home for a slumber

For we knew that finals were just around the corner

Merry Christmas to all and to all a classy christmas night!

Much thanks to Jessi's family (especially her dad for keeping all the business boys company :) ), all those who came, the dinner group boys who helped cook, to Amy who created the best cake, and last but not least my roommates who are the greatest party planners EVER!!
