Last night was Randall's Christmas work party. Continuing with tradition they hosted and provided tuxedo's for a very nice black tie event at The Grand America. I was really worried about going up with the snow storm that had come in but thankfully the roads were completely clear.
It's always fun to get so dressed up and remember the good old days of Jr. and Sr. prom and of course our wedding day. Yes we go way back. In fact the anniversary of our first kiss is coming up Dec. 31 I think 14 years ago. Randall looked very handsome and I didn't look half bad myself. I will post the pictures we took though none of them were that great. They did have a photographer take pictures of each couple at the event so I will post that later.
The food was really good and The entertainment was fun. It was a dance group called "Latin Fusion". Some of the dancers had even been on "So you think you can dance". It was pretty good. Awards were given and as tradition goes we played rock, paper scissors as we do at all work events and as usual we didn't win anything. We didn't come home empty handed though. Since the theme was a Brazilian something or other we were given gift bags with Brazilian chocolates as well as a nice black picture frame. The things that impressed me most really about the event was in being sensitive to the economy and all the company not only cut their event budget by 40% but with each prize that was given out it included a large cash donation to the food bank. I thought that was very appropriate and thoughtful. You never would have thought there was such a cut in budget because everything was still very nice. I'm very grateful that Rand is with such a great company and that they are doing so well as a company despite the economy. Here are the pictures we did take. (If you are wondering why I don't ever mention the name of the company, that is because if you do your blog ends up in the inbox of all the managment at Randall's work. I know since last years post about the Christmas party ended up in Rand's boss's inbox and Rand got an email from him saying he had just read our blog)
