Morale Night

Last night we had our Morale Night. The night began with non-alcoholic beer, hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill. For the evening events we had volleyball, bocce ball, karaoke, scrabble, and other card games.

I did two things last night that I have never done before and one that I do not plan on doing again. What is it you ask? One was playing bocce ball – which is a version of horse shoes but played with balls. The other thing I did was sing karaoke! No, I never thought I would be doing that and especially in front of a group of friends and coworkers. The song of choice was Brick House. I did a terrible job singing, but the crowd carried the song. It was really hot when I was standing up on “stage”. Actually, it was in the courtroom. I have attached a few pictures for reference.


Here I am working the crowd...?

We had a great turn out for the gathering and lots of people signed up to sing. We had one person who decided to put on a show – Steve Hernandez. When he started the song, it was just another song, but then he started to dance and before you know it, he ripped open his jacket, spun it above his head and tossed it to the crowd. We were all laughing and cheering him on; it was great. We see that a few here are not shy about shaking their groove thing.

Also, for some reason, we felt compelled to put on a “gun show” for the camera. Please see picture for more explanation.

As usual, we all had a great time and look forward to the next one.
