This afternoon was the annual employee Christmas party and it was such fun. Service awards were given out and a highlight was seeing four employees receiving recognition for over forty years of service each. The VFW is a great place to work and longevity like this proves it. So proud of these four! There was a nice lunch, remarks from the Chair officers, and of course karaoke. In between there was also an ugly sweater competition. We all have a feeling that the blue jeans the winner wore may have had something to do with the Chief's first place decision!! There was even a selfie table with props from A Christmas Story. The room was packed and everyone had a great time. Tomorrow, back to work for veterans!
Mama had fun roaming the floors and halls of HQ today, visiting with her friends. I think it was even more fun considering almost every department had a Christmas snack waiting for her. On the 12th floor, she had a bulging Christmas stocking with toys and treats. Ever the polite dog, she waited patiently for Ms. D to open one of the treats!
