Xmas party went off with flying colours

We were thrilled to have our Christmas Party at the studio to celebrate the end of the year with all our friends and family. We had Pete from the caf cater the digs with all the trimmings and his signature Mexi dip. It was great to have everyone come out and take part in our celebration.

Brandon snuck one of the Nanaimo bars and tried to draw on the glass with it.

Pascale, Rob, Jamie and Lauren having an indepth conversation.

Chis S, Chris R, and Rick discussing the wonderful weather outside. A balmy -16 with slight snow flurries.
Everyone enjoying a bit of this and a bit of that! Cheers, see you all next year.
