Kwik Trip Family Appreciation Day

Yesterday we went to Daddy's work for their Family Appreciation Day.  Ellaree was so excited to go to Daddy's work and to be able to go inside.  Usually if we are with him we sit outside and wait for him. So this was a huge treat.  It was very interesting for myself also to meet all the people he talks about, put a name to a face, and to see the warehouse and get a little more background on the place.  We did not expect to stay for over 3 hours but that just tells you how much fun and activities they had.  I didn't get as many pictures as I should have, I was too busy either chatting or taking care of a kid. 
In the kids area they had two bounce houses...one with a basketball hoop and slide and then this enormous thing that Ellaree loved (hint she is in a pink dress).  Lorelai was too small for it and was not one bit happy to sit in the stroller and watch her sister.  I have been informed that this would be way cool to have for her birthday party. 

They also had face painting and free gifts.
Here we are ready for the hayride.  They gave hayrides around the facility and talked about the expansions that have been and to come.  Very interesting Daddy was off getting his paperwork ready along with hooking up his trailer as he was already running late.  But he did run back and made it just in time to go with us.  Did you see the stroller got to come too, since we thought Harry wouldn't be coming two of the dispatch guys lifted it up so that it was easier on me.  They were all wonderful to help.

They also had semi rides where we all got in and daddy took us for a spin...Lorelai drove.  Warehouse tours (Ellaree loved the banana cooler and to see the donuts!), lots of food, tours of each different trailers they use and lots of people to meet and visit with.
