We had our annual office party at Bury The Hatchet this weekend, and it was a great time - plenty of laughs, some surprisingly impressive throws, and everyone left in one piece.

We also got to cheer on some big milestones: Crystal’s 10th year, Regina’s 10th year, Seth’s 10th year, and Cindy’s BIG 25th year!

And because we missed her last year, we made sure to celebrate Susan’s 6th year too.

Congratulations to all — see pics below.
