Founders Circle 2011 Highlights – Day 2

Posted on September 28, 2011September 27, 2011 by Josee

 

 
 
 
 

Hello friends! Welcome to day 2 of my Founders Circle Trip.

Today I got courageous and joined a lovely group of ladies in a Ziplining Adventure. Holy Moly Macaroni…was it ever scary…..but FUN!

Here we are before we got started:

This is the point were I started wondering WHAT WAS I THINKING?! LOL I have to admit though…the first time was really scary…but, it got really FUN after that! I'm so glad I went!

The Adventures Company created a video of us…so here it is. {I'm the one with the yellow helmet}.

After our adventure…I had organized a dinner out to the Olive Garden with the girls in my group PLUS some of our friends:

Apparently this was a really FULL day….later that evening, we had our Stampin' Up! PJ party and share night and card swap.


Then back to the room to check out our pillow gift: tonight we found this Popcorn Tub containing some yummy treats and an invitation to go to Tuachan the next night to watch "The Little Mermaid". I was so excited…cause Tuachan has always been a highlight for me each year when I attend Founders.

Thanks for joining me today….day 3 will come tomorrow.

As you can tell, being a demonstrator has tons of perks…if you've ever thought of doing what I do to SAVE money or to MAKE money…check out my info page! I'd love to have you as part of my team!

Founders Circle 2011 Highlights – Day 1

Posted on September 27, 2011September 25, 2011 by Josee

Hi Friends, I had full intentions on blogging every night from my Founders Circle Trip and every night I was so exhausted, I just couldn't get to it. So….this week, I'll show you some highlights from each day! I hope you enjoy it!

Day 1

I arrived at the Vegas airport today and met up with some other demonstrators and some of the staff. I have to tell you that it really doensn't feel real to me until I see some of my SU peeps! I was so excited to meet up with them. Stampin' Up! arranges shuttles for us to bring us to St. George, Utah. When I arrived, I had time to go to the gathering place and check out all the fun decorations and all the ymummies!



For the rest of the afternoon, I was able to catch up with some amazing ladies who I haven't seen in a while. In the evening, Stampin' Up! hosted a Welcome Dinner for us. On each of our names tags was the name of our "group" for the night and we had to find our group members and our table. I was part of {The Brits}! We had a really nice time getting to know each other.

After our dinner, we all rushed back to our room to find our first pillow gift! Tonight, we received our make and take supplies for the projects Stampin' Up! has prepared for us. We even got a couple of SNEAK PEEK items from the upcoming Occasions catalogue in January. {A brand new stamp set & a new Big Shot die….fun, fun, fun!!!!}

 That's it for the first day….of course I stayed up too late chatting with friends! I have lots to share for day 2, so make sure you come back!!!

Remember that I have a Holiday Mini Product Share going on right now!!!! Click here for details!
