Christmas Party

This was the most amazing work Christmas Party I have ever been to. Tyler's Company flew us to Scottsdale Arizona on December 5th. We got there a little late due to delayed flights but when we got to our room it was well worth the wait. His Company booked everybody in suites! I couldn't believe it, it was very nice. The next morning we were to be to breakfast at 8:00. This was a very nice breakfast....not continental. After Breakfast we were transported (by a very nice bus.....luxury if you ask me) to the ice rink. The employees played ice hockey (only two people had to go to the hospital) and the winning team won Jackets. Tyler's team won of course! When the hockey game was over we all got to ice skate for about an hour and a half, after that we went to Peter Piper Pizza for lunch. Which, again, we didn't have to pay for. When lunch was over we were bused back to our hotels where we had some free time to do what ever we wanted before dinner. We went and played pool with some of Ty's co-workers and their Spouses and just visited and got to know each other. He works with the nicest people. I felt so comfortable and I told Tyler he is not allowed to quit working for this company....EVER. We will see how that goes. Dinner was AMAZING. As we walked in the door we were handed raffle tickets. They had Ice sculptures and chocolate fountains and so much yummy food. My favorite part was the deserts of course. When dinner was over Gordon (the owner of UHI) started the raffle. The raffle prizes were unbelievable. Tyler won a portable DVD Player. I didn't win anything (that's not shocking) Some other prizes that were given away were 50" and 20" plasma TV's. Ride a long Thomas the Train. Digital Photo frame. Money and lots of it. Purses, facial supplies and so much more. The next morning we had to get up and go to the airport. I was kind of sad to leave the nice 70 degree weather but I missed my kids so I was OK with it. Now I can't wait until next year! Yes, I forgot my camera...sorry, no pictures. This Party made my Work Christmas Party seem even more pathetic then I knew it was. We got to pay $5 for our lunch at the Marriott Hotel. And then we were allowed to go home two hours early...YIPPEE!
