100th Celebration

A few weeks ago Brent and I got away for the night to celebrate 100 years of the Builders' Exchange.  Sarah has been planning this night for the past several years.  100 years of business is something to really celebrate. Her association has over 300 companies who are members so this was a really big night.

 We picked up Holly after work and headed up to Richmond to celebrate.

 Sarah is the executive director and put on a really great evening. The room was packed with people.

 I just love this picture.  Brent: "Ok here's the plan." Jeff: ALL IN. Robbie "I'm not so sure but what the heck lets do it"

 There was a cocktail hour and then a small program where they honored several members - some businesses have been members for all 100 years.  And then we ate and danced for the rest of the night. The live band was really fun.

 Jill doesn't believe anything Jeff is trying to tell her.

Or whatever Brent is talking about! ha!

So fun to have Holly there

The ballroom doors opened at 7 and after the program we ate and danced the rest of the night.

Robbie saved the day with getting the video equipment all set up.  Robbie is now the favorite brother in law.

The event was at the historic Jefferson Hotel.  So beautiful.  We got a room for the night so we wouldn't have to drive home.  Holly and I were talking how this year so far we've stayed at Kingsmill and now the Jefferson. We are getting really fancy with our hotel stays this year.

 It was a really great event and so well done. It was a huge success.

At the end we all went back to Sarahs room to watch the end of the Tech basketball game.

Mom and Dad came to watch the kids and Ma-ma-maa and Norah worked on her fairy garden. Shes been out there for hours since playing in it.

On our way home from Richmond we picked up this sweet baby and her momma.  Kristopher is deploying for 10 months and was at training so Bethany and Ellie came down for the weekend. It was really fun having a baby in the house again.

She learned that if she raises her hands everyone raised their hands.  It was a fun game.

It was a full weekend but filled with lots of fun.
