yea... we're gonna have to get something together for this year no doubt!

last years Christmas part had 6 days notice and had 50 people turn out... now i know more will want to come out since everyone heard the stories, saw the photos and regretted not making it!

im gonna have to find a place to have our TPF Christmas Party... Im thinking a good sized place with lots of space that serves food (orderline style) and has a good bar.

I like the Ragin Cajun out in sugarland, tons of space but we might be a bit crazy for that place... i dunno. i know the owners so ill talk to them and see if we can get half of the restaurant place blocked off or something! was last years a week night or weekend? i dont remember

I say we either find a venue that can accommodate all of us, or just have it at abel's house....

I just wonder if he will have those condom shaped toothbrushes in his bathroom?

After last years I am really looking forward to this years. I met a lot of really great people and there were definitely some interesting photo ops.

i'll try to find something more centrally located but i cant promise anything... i have to try to accommodate 100 people to air on the safe side and im not sure if we'll be able to find a place that can house all of us folks.

but trust me.. the event is well worth the drive.

Last years thread HERE

We gave away nearly $1,000 in photo related gear as well as having a kicking white elephant gift exchange which was definitely the highlight of the night!

man that was a fun night indeed..
