Amy Roloff was a BIG hit at UTC. There were over 500 people there, which mandated an overflow room with a satellite feed of her talk. Even though I was an hour early, I didn't get a seat. However, it pays to be friends with the A/V guy so David and I sat in the booth with him. Amy talked for 1 hour and 45 minutes and though she was super cool and laid back, she wasn't a very polished speaker. We wanted to have our picture taken with her (shoot, David wanted to take her out to dinner), but the line was wrapped around the UC. Oh well.
Tonight is our UTC Campaign kick-off event. We have about 250 important people coming to the cocktail hour and then dinner/program, and our office is pretty excited... about it being over! I really haven't done much of the hard work, but we've all been involved through the planning and organizing process. Fortunately David is coming tonight, so once the event starts we'll be on our own. We are sitting with the dean of the college I work with, the president of the alumni association and some big donors. That will make things fun at least! Oh- and the food is going to make the entire night worthwhile. Look for pictures in the near future! We're getting all fancied up :).
Oh PS- IT'S FRIDAY! Even though I'll be working until late tonight (we have to clean up/break down the entire event), I could not be more excited about it being Friday! KRay and RyRy are coming tomorrow and we can't wait to hang out with them at Branches!! Again, look for pictures next week :)
