Hello All!
I am officially the 2008 Miss Noah's Ark- crown, sash, trophy, and all! I also won this HUGE Gingerbread Stuffed Animal!
I was in Chicago last weekend for the Noah's Ark Workshop National Convention. It was awesome! We have some great new products arriving this Fall/Winter and they include:
-a Ghost
-a Black Kitty (very, very soft)
-a Reindeer with a RED nose
-a Gingerbread
-Noah's Ark party paper goods: plates, cups, napkins, and table cloth
-Noah's Ark party favors in a cute box
-Noah's Ark logo t-shirts (for people- not the animals) that can be colored with cloth pens
I think that is it (that is all I can think of for now). I will be writing/posting a Summer Newsletter soon and that will have more details!
We also had two great speakers- Che Brown and Frank Price! Very motivating and inspirational! I am excited to share their info with my team! And, speaking of my team, I did have two team members join me at convention- Brenda Campbell from San Antonio, Texas and her daughter, Melissa Vandenberg (spelling?) from Indy. It was so nice to spend the weekend with them. They are both so sweet and fun!! I wish all my team could attend the convention!
On Saturday evening, there was a nice dinner followed by an awards time. I think I won 10 or 11 awards (I lost count after a while). But the very last award of the evening was given to the Crew Member that achieved in the top five within the company for sales and recruiting AND that was ME. It was awesome! It does take a lot to work both sides of the business and it was so nice to receive a reward from the company for that. AND, speaking of the company. I just love the owners, as well as, the ladies and gentlemen in the office. What an awesome family! It is hard to put into words exactly how the owners really and truly care and consider all of the crew members their own family. It is such a unique and wonderful situation they have created. I pray that God will continue to bless them and this company for many years to come!
Well, as usual, I am blogging at night and I must get to bed. I spent the day cleaning and doing all the stuff that didn't get done last weekend since I was gone. Man, I hate it when the "maid" goes away on vacation. :)
I hope everyone had a blessed 4th of July!!! It was nice to just stay home for a day. I have TONS of workshops this month and I am going to take this weekend to play catch up and get ready! Although, I am taking off Sunday and doing NOTHING!!! I have to be better about just taking a day to relax.
Ciao!
