1st Anual Patterson Progressive Dinner

Every year in December Scott's family has the tradition of doing a progressive dinner.
We do appetizers at one families house, salads at the next, then the main course and then we end with dessert at the last house.


Thanks to Bobby and Autumn getting married this past year, we finally were able to do our own progressive dinner, and it was so much fun (much to Hunter's surprise, who thought that it was dumb to do all of the driving.)
Just as fun as all of the eating, was seeing everyone's houses all done up for Christmas!

We started at Autumn's house were she had Chili's chips and salsa... and also some yummy spinach and artichoke dip that Matt's mom taught her to make.





Then off to Bobby's were they did soup.
Bobby and Rachel got a real tree this year (which is new to our family)
and I think that everyone thought it was pretty cool.


We had the main course at our house, and I did Turkey and Cranberry cersaunt sandwiches which turned out super yummy.




We ended the night at my mom's house for dessert and gingerbread houses
(which was taken very serious this year.)
Gingerbread houses are something that I really struggle with....
I always dream of making this amazing house,
but for some reason I can just never pull it off.
Dakota and Bridger get way into it, so it is always fun
despite my not so awesome house.
