Saturday night, Isaac and I went to the holiday party for my workplace. It was held up in Black Hawk at the Ameristar. I hadn't been there before. It was a casino, so lots of flashing lights and noise. But it was clean and nice. The crew does this every year and eats at the buffet and it's very casual and laid back.
It was fun. I got to meet more family members of my coworkers. And I wasn't sure what to expect food-wise, but the food was very good! And there was a decent vegetarian selection. Dessert was awesome (can you go wrong with a chocolate fountain?? No. The answer is "no").
We all ate until it hurt and talked and laughed. It was very nice. Some of the gang stayed to gamble and others left. Isaac and I each tried a slot machine for a bit, but we didn't stay long. I just had to try the slot machine with bears on it.
Sunday, my friend Liz had a cookie decorating party, so we went to that. It was quite a group of fun people so we ended up with some funny cookies! Here are some of them:
 |
| My rather plain-looking cookies. |
 |
| Graham made a candy cane into a Christmas snake. And that's a zombie under it. |
 |
| Liz's pretty and fun cookies. I like the snowflake and the Abominable Snowman! |
 |
| Peter's snowflake-turned-monster cookie. |
 |
| Wren "decorating" cookies. |
That's all for now! We still have more December events coming up!
