Reunion

So, with our company rather than doing a "Holiday" Party, they throw a huge awards shindig at the end of the year. They rent out the Anatole Hotel in Dallas (yes, all of the buildings) and make you feel like a VIP. The day we got there we were directed to a tradeshow with lots of our vendors. There were also people there likt Don Schula and the Mavericks Dancers and mascot. There was also some guy who starred in Little House on the Prarie, but I didn't really recognize him. There are different workshops during the day and I won an Ipod Nano at the spouse's one. Comedian Wayne Brady was the entertainment one night, doing improv comedy like on "Who's line is it anyway?" with Derw Carey. The next night they had the band Big and Rich and we stood about two feet away from them. I wasn't really familiar with any of the songs, but the company had a copy of their brand new unreleased CD in our rooms waiting we got back. We listened to it on the way home and I would highly recommend them.

As far as the awards, Matt won his Quickstart class out of the entire company and was Rookie of the Year in our Division. We hope to "walk the stage" several times next year and qualify for some of the awesome bonuses and prizes. For the next few blogs you will see some fuzzy pictures. We have pushed some button on the camera and now everything is blurry, but enjoy...
