I apologize for not inserting the picture into the post about us traveling to Phoenix. I was trying to send a blog on my Iphone and pushed the wrong button!
Just to recap my previous blog post.....Randy is driving us to Phoenix, AZ so I can attend Stampin' Up!'s Leadership Conference. I really hate that I am going to be in sunny weather with temperatures in the 70s but someone has to tolerate it so I will do my best to enjoy it while my friends in Oklahoma suffer with frigid, "deep freeze" temperatures.
I previously posted that my husband was so wonderful and thoughtful because he rented a u-haul trailer so I could carry all of my stamping equipment and have a portable stamping studio. He is a wonderful and thoughtful man; however, this u-haul was for his precious Harley! He is going to ride in the mountains while I am attending classes. Ladies, when you travel with your husband does hestop frequently for you to go to the bathroom? Well, my dear husband does not. He isn't cruel or anything<gg> but he likes to get in the vehicle and drive without stopping, if at all possible. I will keep quiet until my eyes turn green, THEN I will let him know we need to stop. Well, on this little trip, I did not have to ask for him to stop. He stopped approximately every two hours to check on his little baby that was in the u-haul. I was cracking up on how he was so careful with that item and how he had to check to see if the tie downs were holding the cycle in place. The windshield travelled behind our seat so we could watch it and make sure it didn't get cracked. Believe me, I was enjoying getting the opportunity to stretch my legs and go to the bathroom, if needed, every two hours!!! I will have to suggest that he take that black beauty with us everywhere we go<lol>.
Tomorrow (Wednesday) I will be checking in, receiving all of my goodies that SU! puts in our Leadership bag, and getting to shop in the Momento Hall. This is where SU! provides MANY items for sale that have never before been seen. There is usually a clothing item or two and many giftable items that we can purchase. It is so much fun to get to go shopping. We will stand in line swapping card fronts or 3D items and that is where I will receive many ideas that I can share with you. At noon I will attend my first class then from 1-4 PM I will have a session of make and takes using brand new product in the Sale-A-Bration mini catalog and the new occasions mini catalog. After that I will spend quite awhile taking pictures of any display boards they may have. Thursday and Friday I will attend classes all day (from 8-5) with a lunch break. SU! provides our lunch and it is always a wonderful, first class meal. Then Thursday night I will attend the Manager's Reception. It is still secretive as to where we are going. All I know we will all board busses and they will take us to an awesome place where we are going to dine and be entertained by the natives of Phoenix. I will also receive another FREE stamp set that will be in the occasions mini catalog. Can you tell I LOVE free stamps? I will tell you more about this after I have attended the event. Believe me....it will be a first class event. Randy has always been amazed at how SU! treats us. So stay tuned for that event. Have a wonderful day. Remember....I love ya!!!
If you will indulge me I would love to
