my CEO's 50th birthday party

The CEO of my company recently turned 50 years old...in style! She threw an outrageous party at the Paraiso Maravilla off Chimney Rock. The place was very nice, though there were not enough chairs for everyone. They had top notch appetizers and finger foods, but I think I only tried a few that were recognizable. There was also an open bar, which is very strange for my strict, Baptist CEO! It was strange to see people you work with all dressed up (we had to wear 'after 5 attire' in either black or white), drinking, and boogying down on the dance floor! Jesse was out of town and unable to go with me, so I spent most of the night drinking Sprite and laughing as people danced all funky on the dance floor. I did manage to get a few pictures, though they turned out pretty dark.

This is my CEO and her boyfriend beginning the dance trend...
(I was on the 2nd floor looking down to get this picture)
The birthday cake...probably larger than my wedding cake...
Me and a couple girls from the office, Jean and Ana.
Chris and Lori 'getting down' on the dance floor! It was a fun evening, though not my favorite event ever. Perhaps it would have been different if I was able to have a drink or two and relax some, but that was not the case.
I stayed long enough for people to know I was there, then I headed home to have some Taco Bell and a cheesy chick flick- now THAT is my kind of night!
