All the salt!

Well I knew I would be horrible at keeping up on our blog. I do think about adding to it a lot but just don't ever really find the time. So as we are driving back from Wendover and I got a little sick of staring at all the salt to the sides of the highway I decided what better time then to blog. We went out this weekend for Josh's company's big sales kick off and awards ceremony. I think it was just more of a reason to get the whole sales force together and see who could really out drink each other. Friday night was a food show and I found myself having to dress business casual. I was not excited about squeezing my self into dress pants that I swear just fit me a few months ago. As we attend the food show very nicely dressed I notice a large percent of those attending must have missed the memo and wore jeans, dang I could have bypassed the squeezing and just wore my preferred outfit of sweat pants. I felt very out of place and lost at the event to say the least. Josh let me sit and relax at a table and kept bringing me food, the last thing I needed after all the squeezing. I did get to meet several of Josh's co-workers, my favorite was a funny Asian lady Josh has done a lot of work with, she was very entertaining and we were starting to take bets on who would have a hangover in the morning.

On Saturday Josh had meetings all day so that left me with few options of keeping myself entertained. Wendover offers quite a variety between drinking, eating and gambling. I only really know how to do one of those three, so I decided it would be a day to catch up on sleep since Kaydence was spending the weekend with Grandma and Grandpa Groves. Saturday night was the awards ceremony and of course to kick it all off the started the evening out with Cocktail hour what a surprise. A little akward for us we managed to find three other guys that were not participating in all the cocktails to socialize with. The dinner was very good and probably the best part of the night. The most I understood out of the ceremony was those who sold millions upon millions of dollars got awards.... the end. The whole reason of the weekend was to come and support Josh in his company, so I was glad to be here for him and for the extra rest I received, but I don't care to visit Wendover again anytime soon!
