Thanks to Lori, JoAnn and everyone on the activity committee for a wonderful night on Tuesday.  From the decorations, to the food, to the program, everything  was worth braving the blizzard.  And if you need a a song parody written it's apparent that Lori is very talented in that area.  I was so inspired I went home and washed my apron!
