My work Christmas party was last weekend, yes less than one week after I broke my wrist, but I had already bought a dress so I decided I'd be there no matter what! It was my first and our last Christmas party together!
We had dinner at El Torito restaurant which is one of a handful of Mexican restaurants in the area. One of the parents bought us a bottle of tequila and my boss Kathryn ate the worm.
Choosing my lime and salt for the group tequila shot! Since I only had one functioning hand Sev had to help me do my hair - didn't he do a good job?!
Peppered salt was available, which Sev went with and I chose regular salt.
There was a split second during which I thought the tequila might come back up but I managed to avoid that!
Claire is our circus school instructor, and she does some awesome handstands!
The restaurant was tiny and we had the whole thing to ourselves!
I was supposed to be in charge of games for the evening but I got out of that responsibility when I broke my wrist, so Jess was the master of ceremonies for the evening, and I think she really relished her power!
Alea and I are the two assistant coordinators. She's been at WSACC for 10 years so I'd say she has slight seniority over me. We also work out together with her brother as our trainer and she puts me to shame every time!
Kellie is from New Zealand and was hired around the same time I was so we've been getting oriented together. Part of the party was breaking into groups and doing a scavenger hunt from the restaurant to a bar. Kellie, her husband Andrew, Sev, and I were a team.
We had the get a picture of a mullet. It's hard to see in this shot but he had some serious business in the front/party in the back!
Sev and Andrew did the wheelbarrow down a sidewalk...
Sev took a picture with two hot blondes...
I took a picture with a police officer...
A group of people lifted me in the air for a picture...
Sev got a lipstick mark on his cheek...
Kellie wore this guy's glasses...
And in the end The Foreigners were announced the winners of the scavenger hunt!
At the bar Kellie ended up being quite the chick magnet, as Jess put it.
I tried to hide my cast in the pictures and succeeded for the most part. My arm was sore by the end of the night and even more sore the next day!
Andrew is scared here because we had to pry Kellie's stalker away from her!
Andrew also displayed his advanced photobomber skills for us that evening! I heard the group went dancing after this, which I was sad to miss out on but my wrist was telling me to go home!
