Scentsy Convention

So sorry this is so late and I am behind and I'm sorry but this post will be a LONG one as Convention was a few days, and there is just sooo much to tell! So last week we were able to attend the Scentsy Convention. It was held in Salt Lake City this year, which was great for us being so close and all! We left Vernal Wednesday and registered, checked into our Hotel and was able to have a nice catch up dinner with our friends from Logan (who know live in SLC) Meg & Jim. It was great to catch up with them and visit for awhile! Now I may be biased and possibly even crazy but I think it is so kewl that as we were walking around our Hotel lobby we ran into Orville and Heidi Thompson and their children. Again this is the presidential family of Scentsy, I realize they are not famous, but in my eyes they should be! It was also fun to just run into Kara Egan one of the founders of Scentsy, her and her husband are so friendly and fun to talk to. Anyway, up and atom early Thursday for the beginning of meetings and trainings. The new product was unveiled and some given away. SO AWESOME! Then it was Thursday night and time for the BIG Celebration of Scentsy turning 5. The celebration wa carnival style and called Cirque de' beserque. It was really fun to walk around and see the booths and they had set up and all the fun things for the families involved. Again, we were able to have Meg and Jim join us, a big Thanks to them for taking time our of their busy lives to hang out! Friday was another early day filled with meetings and trainings. I was fortunate enough to win one of the Scentsy Spirit games and ended up with a $100.00 Gift Certificate to Scentsy Success, which is where we buy all our business supplies! Then we went to the Awards Gala and enjoyed some yummy deserts and some hilarious entertainment, which was a comic named Jason Hewlett. He is awesome, Jo had seen him previously in Logan, but still a very good show! He sings, plays instruments, and impersonations. Needless to say it was a great night! Scentsy gave away 5 cars, and about 10 trips (I may be off on the number,)among numerous other awards. Then on Saturday we were able to go to one more final meeting with our team. We learned a lot of new things, and ideas and Jo is SOOO excited to put everything into action. Our goals with Scentsy have changed and we are the way to reaching them!

Each year at Convention you sign your name on the board. It's totally impossible to see my signature but it is up in the left hand corner. PS Shine in 09 was the theme for this year's Convention, and they did a WONDERFUL job with it.
