Sydney and Me

Today work was really slow, so Patrick, Alicia and I went to see Marley and Me at lunch. It was such a cute movie. We all sat there and cried together with the other five people in the theater. (Patrick and Alicia are cat people, I guess we can't all be perfect)

The movie went through the life of a little golden retriever and his family. Through it all I saw my little lady Syd and though of how happy she has made me. Even though she can be a little "spirited". We have been through a lot together, and she has kept me smiling through it all. So below is a little tribue in pictures of my favorite little monkey-bat-rat in the world.

Holiday Party

The Gifts
Mom and I made the cutest bags to put the gifts (A leather bound copy of Stories For Christmas by Charles Dickens) in. They were really beautiful on the table at the party. Everyone loved them.

Everyone


We had so much fun, I don't think there was more than a few minute the entire night we were not all laughing. This group feeds off of each other. It was a good thing we had our own room. The other people in the restaurant kept coming by to see what we were doing, and I think to look at how cute the room looked.

Here are the Winners of the Ugly Christmas Sweater Contest....there was a lot of competition. Despite my best try at getting a really ugly one, one of the servers really liked mine...

The "Sue" Chefs

I know this is way out of date at this point, but I just got the picutes from XanGo's Halloween day. It's a big deal around these parts. They have contest every year, grand prize ($1,500) went to the headless horseman who showed up on a black horse...crazy!

My job was to make the Legal department look like team players by dressing up for the first year ever! Thus the name "Sue Chefs"
