Well I have just returned from our annual Leadership conference in Phoenix Arizona. I had such a great time with amazing women who I have known for many years. Here are just some of these women. (I did not get pictures of everyone I wanted to.)
Lisa Fast, Denise Jorgensen, Lis Ljung and my self.
Stampin' Up! put on a beautiful Breakfast for past Advisory Board Members. Everything was decorated so beautifully in a gold and burgundy color scheme. We had a string quartet as our background music, a delicious breakfast and of course great swaps.
We had a shoebox swap in my hotel room with the leaders in my group. Some of us were up till 2am stamping...I felt sorry for our cleaning lady! Our room was a mess when we got done!
We had a night where we celebrated all the Mangers and above. We enjoyed a Mexican Fiesta. We were entertained by bull riders, rope throwers, and more. Our entertainment was cut short when a cowboy broke his leg. He was doing the "Ride of Death" as they called it.... I was going to help with the audience participation part of the night. I was going to STAMP A CALF! I was a bit sad when the rest of the show was cut short because of the accident... what a memory that would have been to STAMP A CALF!!! (Thanks Rachel for letting me borrow your tennis shoes) We pray for the cowboy and his family.
We were given a shawl, a stamp set wrapped up in a bright colored towel with a crepe paper flower attached. All in all it was a memorable night.
As we ate dinner we shared concern for the cowboy and his family. We decided we would like to collect some money to help the man and his family. So I checked with Shelli to see if she was ok with us collecting donations. (Of course she was.) So we talked to the manager and he put a vase out for the money donations. there was about $75 in the vase. Then Pearl diapered form our table. When I inquired where she was everyone pointed to the oposite end of the room. There was Pearl with her zip lock baggie going from table to table giving everyone the opportunity to donate... She gathered quite a bit of money. As we gave it the the Manager she informed us that the cowboy did not have insurance. Our hearts were happy as we knew he could use this money gathered in his behalf. Go Pearl! She was a great example to me of going out and getting the job done! There was no waiting around to see if people would contribute.
I love what I Do! I love the women and men who have influenced me for good!
