    2024 APPA Holiday Party

       

    Get ready to jingle all the way to the Austin PPA Holiday Bash at Papasito's Cantina! This isn't your average holiday shindig – oh no, we're bringing the festive vibes and a White Elephant gift exchange that'll be wilder than a cat herding session on photo day. Just keep your gift under $15 – we're talking "What even is this?" instead of "I found this at Sotheby's."

    We can’t wait to see everyone at the last bash of the year! So, throw on your best holiday gear, grab the most ridiculous gift you can find, and come prepared for an evening packed with belly laughs, good cheer, and memories that'll last longer than your last family photo session. Let's end the year on a high note and make this holiday season one for the books!
