Congratulations Taryn & Becky

Just wanted to let everyone know that Taryn Woolley (one of our staff accountants) and his wife Becky are the proud owners of their first home. Taryn and Becky got the keys to their new home in Pittsburg last Friday and spent the weekend moving. I'm sure Taryn would have rather been in the office working on tax returns. The timing of this purchase is very good, as they are also expecting their first child in November. They should have plenty of time to get the nursery completed by the time the baby arrives. Congratulations Taryn and Becky!

TY Summer Picnic

Well this has definitely been a year of firsts. I guess that happens during your first year of being in business. We had our first Company picnic last Friday at City Beach in Fremont. Just about everyone was able to attend. Glen we did miss you, especially during the team building competition. We could have used you in the team ski walk. We definitely needed some guidance (at least on my team). Everyone had a great time in a fun environment. In addition to the team building competition there were games of all types, volleyball, basketball, badminton, air hockey, shuffleboard, ping pong, foosball and oh yeah a rock wall for the brave. I must say we have some climbers in this crowd. Several of our group, myself included, made it to the top of the wall to ring the bell. It was harder than I thought it would be. If you are looking for a place to hold a company event I would recommend City Beach. In addition to the fun and games, the food was quite good. Well worth the trip to Fremont. Many thanks to Lisa for setting up this event and making sure it ran smoothly. Here's looking forward to next years event. Hope it is just as fun. Chris-

Thank You TY Gang!

This is the first official post and it is directed to the TY gang. Today was my first day back from a well needed vacation and I wanted to thank everyone in the office for not only stepping up to fill the need with Glen's absense, but for stepping up to allow me to take the time off. Thanks gang. I appreciate knowing that things were in capable hands. Chris-
