Okay, so I took my laptop with me to Nashville in hopes of blogging every days' events with you but YEAH RIGHT!!! Our schedules were JAM PACKED and as soon as we got back to the hotel room each night, it was time to hit the hay so we could do it all over again the next day!! Like I said, each day was jam packed with swapping, classes, HUGE announcements, prize patrol and more!! It was SO exciting being there with 999 other super excited Stampin' Up Leaders!
I got on the first flight on Wednesday leaving Lubbock at 6:30am and got to Nashville at 11:00! We had time to walk around our hotel...the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Conference Center...AMAZING!! Well, really...we had time to get LOST! Here are some pictures of the Resort...when they give you maps at check-in...its probably a hint that you'll need it!

Then...I met up with the almost 500 demonstrators for the Manager's Reception! This is a perk for only those who have reached the title of Manager and above so my roomies didn't make it this year but I'm sure they will for next year! The only hint we got was an invitation in the mail that Stampin' Up! was treating us to a "Night in Nashville". I was SO EXCITED to learn that we were going to the WILDHORSE SALOON...one of the places on my list to do! Here were some highlights...Food, Dancing and Fellowship!

and...one last treat for the night...when the buses brought us back to the hotel...they had these waiting for us...our SUPER cute leadership bags and a stamp set that I can't reveal because it will not be available until our new Idea Book and Catalog come out in July!

That's it for Wednesday! With 2 hours sleep the night before, I got a REALLY good night's sleep! Stay tuned for more leadership highlights!
I would LOVE to have you join me for Leadership AND Manager's Reception next year in SAN ANTONIO!!! Nice and close to home, we'll be partying on the river walk!!! Call or email me for more information about joining my Stampin' Up! Family! If you're interested in having a fun and rewarding business, call me ASAP as I have a chance of a lifetime offer for 1 lucky person!!!
Thanks for visiting!
