Brown County Republican Club Christmas Dinner

We had our Christmas party for the Brown County Republican Party Thursday evening. The was a pretty good ending to a chaotic day. We of course started the day at the daycare and had to leave to take DeAnna to Brown County General for an ultrasound of her liver, spleen, and gall bladder. She was not aloud to eat or drink anything before the test so she was starving because it wasn't done until almost noon. We should get those results today. Cheyenna had a rough afternoon at the daycare to come home to the spicket on the outside of the house pouring water. She was trying to shut it off and in the process was soaked and she called me soak and wet and very cold and water still pouring from the spicket. Derrick to the rescue - he went home and turned the water off, went and got the part and then, we went to the Christmas Dinner. (in the mean time we had to close the store very early) After the dinner Derrick went home and fixed the pipe so we could turn the water back on.

Here are some pictures from the Dinner. I was unable to get all the pictures that I wanted because I have been having trouble with my battery charger. I some pictures of some of the candidates but, not all of them.
