Teammates Gala



Last night we had the honor of being invited to a gala fundraiser for the Teammates charity. Teammates is a mentoring program founded by Tom Osborn and his wife. Colby's employer is actively involved in this program and always gets a table at the fundraiser. The assistant plant manager invited Colby to attend, and of course we were anxious to get a night out away from the kids.

The evening didn't start out on a great note. Our babysitter had a dead battery in her car and arrived late. We still made it to the gala in time for drinks. I should've had more drinks. Although Colby's coworkers are great and the food was good, the event was moving along really slowly. When we left over two hours after we'd arrived, they hadn't done any of the guest speakers or magic show yet. We decided we'd make it home by 9:30 pm to relieve the babysitter and put the kiddos to bed.

It was nice to get all dressed up and look hot with my husband. Thank you to Evie for taking a photo of us before we left.
