Christmas in Paradise, Lagos 2013

On December 7th, we threw a Christmas Party with 3 other couples for about 75 guests! The theme was Christmas in Paradise, so it was a lot of luau and Christmas decorations. We had a band that serenaded us with a saxophone player and a troupe of performers that danced and ate fire! We had a friend dress up as Santa and he was a great sport dancing with all the ladies and taking pictures with guests. We also ordered a full pig for a true luau style party and the boys carried it out on a table when Santa arrived. We made glasses for party favors so everyone can look back on their memories in Lagos. It was such a fun party and totally worth all the work to make it happen!!
