On Thursday and Friday this week, Jeff had the annual Kiewit District Meeting for the Northwest District. On Thursday evening we had an evening out a Punch Bowl Social. We visited with friends, played some darts, and ate some tacos.
On Friday morning Jeff was asked to give a speech on the importance of safety in the workplace. He was nervous, but later in the evening, several co-workers told him what a great job he did. He is such a shy guy and not one to speak in front of crowds, so to say I am proud of him is an understatement. Also, he looks so handsome in a suit!
WE decided not to stay overnight, but since Kiewit paid for a room for us anyway, we had a place to leave our coats before dinner. This was the pretty view of the Willamette from the window.
Then we headed to the ballroom for cocktail hour and found a private room to I could watch most of Jeff's morning safety talk on his co-worker's phone.
Then we grabbed a couple of cocktails and chatted with people before heading into dinner.
The dining area was full of amazing ice sculptures.
After dinner, a few of the wives asked the husbands to take photos...
as you can see I got mostly outtakes.
The after party consisted of a live band, flowing spirits, amazing lounge areas with rustic Alaskan decor, and billiards and other games.
We had a great time but didn't stay out too late. Until next year!
