Company Picnic

Well yesterday was an incredibly busy and fun-filled day. Chris and I went to my annunal company picnic at Frank's (our CEO) ranch with our friends Jon and Sydney and their baby, Carson (Sydney also works for Melaleuca). It was actually really fun, the weather was just perfect, the nice breeze throughout the whole day was what made it so nice. There were huge tents set up to sit under for shade, there was a water zone for the kids with at least 50 pools and a fire truck spraying water off it, there were a few rides and blow-up slides and jumpers, etc., mini-golf and free food and drinks and snow cones all day long. It was awesome. But I think what made it even more awesome was the fact that I actually won a PRIZE!!!! Every year they have at least a hundred different things to give away. Here is just a little look into what some of the prizes included: 17 Wii's, Trampolines, 32" and 42" flat screen TV, Cruise tickets, Golf Clubs, camping tents, X-Box 360, Playstation 2's, BBQ's, etc. What happens is that they put your name in the box for as many years you have worked for the company, so naturally I didn't really think I had a chance to win anything, since I have almost worked there for 2 years. There are people that have worked there for over 20 years, so I figured for sure they had more of a chance. Anyways, I was just sitting there, not really paying attention to what prize they were giving away and all of a sudden I hear my uncle call my name (he's the Executive VP of the company)!! It was awesome, except that I really had no idea what I had just won! When I finally got all the way up there I was handed a DVD/VHS Combo Recorder. It's pretty nice and I'm still in shock that I won anything!! All in all it was a great day to just relax, listen to the music and eat good food! :)
