Update

The last few months have been such a blur. I'm going to do a quick recap b/c there is too much now for me to blog about...so I will just give a few highlights...

Way back in November, I went to NYC. It was my fave trip there yet--completely to my surprise b/c I've had some pretty amazing trips and I didn't expect to love it so much. But I did a lot of things that I haven't done before, learned a lot about the history of the city, etc.....and how many of you can say you've actually seen the former location of Studio 54? Yep--I can now say that I've seen it!!

Vanessa did a way superior post than I ever could so check that out, or Hillary posted pics in facebook. Isn't technology the greatest! :) And here are a few of my pics...Macy's is famous for its window displays--but Bloomies does some pretty amazing ones too:

We went to the Christmas Spectacular which I completely loved! Had to snap a photo of the Swarovski Christmas tree/chandelier hanging in the Radio City Music hall lobby...


Everyone waiting for the subway...

Diva Christmas Eve was as good as ever this year....me and my Zoe....

Jeff & Carmy (representing Ally b/c I didn't get any pics of her)...
Hillary & Lindsey...
And Chaz......he's too pretty to be a boy, isn't he?
January means Leadership Conference for Stampin' Up! and this year it was in sunny Orlando! Just when I think I couldn't love my job more, I get to spend an amazing week in Florida w/hundreds of fabulous people. Lisa's got a fab post too....
This is my very tall friend, Stacie--we presented together this year...
and then the other two fabulous ladies that I presented with: Barb & Mimi...
This event brought a new kind of tired....at least one of us still managed to smile. :) haha
Every event also brings bonding time w/coworkers....including a couple of nights in the Backstage Lounge with Waddell, the Pope and Jaron....

Backstage after the show...Lori, me, Dale (our president) and Carrie...

We really are this happy at events. :) This picture was not set up--it was completely on the fly! Ole!

Meals...I can't remember if this was the lunch where we discussed Jaron's conjoined octopus twin or not, but that is a conversation I will never forget!!!

Amanda was backstage w/me this time...
We had a few free hours one night so me, Amanda & Angie had dinner in Morocco (the Epcot way)...
During Make & Takes we did demonstration booths--showing off stuff from the new catalog...
