Work Holiday Party

The school threw a holiday party for all of the foreign teachers last night at a steak house, where there was an all-you-can-eat buffet (mostly meat and comfort food - mac n cheese, baked potatoes, butternut squash soup) AND a mechanical bull. The latter was fun until someone lost a fingernail while falling off - it was one tricky bull! There was also a raffle - the prizes were "cheese," "better cheese," and a bottle of Courvoisier. Neither of us won big, though we did go home with consolation prizes of chocolate and candies. The pictures show a few of the teachers during the raffle and the two of us on the bus to the restaurant.

  2. Dad: Sadly (?), no. Neither of us rode the bull. Jeff was busy playing pool most of the night and I was busy watching people ride the bull.

    Aunt Rhonda: Thanks for reading! We've been thinking of Sara, baby, and everyone!
