Vegas... Day 2.. Well half of it lol

So how about a little more from our Vegas adventure. So below is a picture of Tahiti Joe's.. Tahiti Joe's became a nightly hang out for many of us... Well the bar part was lol. Needless to say I spent alittle to much time there... BUT.. I wasn't the only one lol



You see the first night.. Wednesday I was there with two of my Directors until they closed.. then the sweet Bartender, Jay, (notice Jay and I were on a first name bases lol) sent us away with to go cups LMAO we headed to the hot tub where my dear from Michelle managed to...gracefully... slide into the hot tub fully clothed and iphone attached to her hip.. not the best moment of the night.. Michelle, Heather and I laughed and laughed until about 5am.. around that time Heather, (the designated walker lol) took us back to our room. So then we did the Meet-n-Greet Thursday (previous post) and Thursday night a bunch of us went to Tahiti Joe's AGAIN!! Although I must say during the meet-n -greet My dear friends, the Bennett's from NM, had me and a few others a couple long islands so some of us already had the party started lol but any who...

This is Katie, Me and some of the Maine Stars Group at Tahiti Joe's =)

Now... What happens in Vegas.. Stays in Vegas... That's not always true lol Below is a picture that words can't describe... LMAO!! Love it! We won't mention names.. but I will say the bra doesn't belong to the one who is holding it lol.
Needless to say we had a blast! But I did sent my self a curfew and was home in bed by mid night!


So then we hit Training bright and early Friday morning!! The day started with a song written by Heather Earl and performed by Karey Bowens, Nikki Millier, Heather Earl and I. it was called Scentsy girl and Sung to the tune of Barbie Girl! IT WAS AMAZING!!


Then there was a slide show the compiled pictures from the last three years of the trips and adventure Scentsy Group Make It Happen has had! It's pretty amazing when you watch it and see some of the dreams that have been full filled and all the places we've been =)


We also did some recognition. This is a picture of the SuperStar Directors that attended the event.. SSD is not an easy level to reach, so we wanted to recognize them for their great accomplishments!

Colette, Adie, Dina, Jen, Becca Heather and Sandi


We heard from the Scentsy Man of Wisdom (as many call him.. per the surveys lol) He talked alittle about the power of one and walking in his shoes... cute shoes.. not sure if they are his style though lol
I did a networking activity that talked about the power of one and showed a starfish video. I then had everyone take two starfish and on one write talents/gifts that they have,one on each corner of the star. On the other starfish I had them write traits that hinder them, again one on each corner of the star. Then then we all went around the room introducing ourselfs by telling a talent/ gift we have and then a trait then hinders us.


Point of this activity... We each have the power to change someones life.. even if it's just one person, our actions, words and deeds have been worth it... It all starts is with one, and ONE can make the world of difference. Our scents downline started with ONE Becca Levie, my mom, and now we have almost 9000 consultants in our downline.. If that doesn't show you the power of one.. IDK what does.


This is a picture of all the starfish on the wall so that through out the weekend we could all go around and find the ONE that made the world of difference for each of us....


Next we heard from Kevin Gallagher. He is one inspiring and amazing man!! He talked to us about Surfin' in 2011. We talked about the two 1's in 2011. The first one being the most important person in the world.. US and that it is important to make time for ourselfs and make sure we are happy.


The second 1 stands for.. TODAY! The most important day is today!! Not tomorrow.. Not next Wednesday.. TODAY.


One thing her said that stood out to me is 'failure is not a person, it's an event".. This stopped me dead in my tracks and really has stuck with me!

So Kevin found out that the bra from tahiti joes...well... It wasn't dawns..lol So her tied her up... haha. No he didn't tie her up for that, it was an object lesson lol but it was still funny... When dawn talked to hear husband she got to tell him "well honey.. I've been in Vegas less than 24 hrs and I lost my bra in the bar... then it ended up on facebook... and then I got tied up.." lol too too funny!After we heard from Kevin we got to listen to SuperStar Director Adie Mitchell. She isn't part of Group Make It Happen, but she is a dear friend of ours and is a huge inspiration to many of us. She talked about giving ourselfs a power hour each day to work on our Scentsy Businesses and she even broke it down for us as to what to do each 15 min! LOVE IT!!

Me, Adie, Mom and Mattie

We also got the AMAZING privilege the have Colette Gunnell one of the Scentsy Founders come and take to us about how Scentsy started just under seven years ago!! Amazing story and AWESOME pictures of scentsy from day one!! I felt way bad though cause her power point wasn't working on my laptop and it was not good! but Phil Bennett came to my rescue and got it up and running!!!

So this HALF of Surfin Scentsy Style day 2. (1st day of training) By this point many of us were about done!! So much to learn and late nights...this doesn't mix well lol But we were still having a BLAST!! So as our brains were mush.. so is mine now from a long day. I'll have to post the rest of day 2 tomorrow =) So stay tune for more to come =)

It's Just About To Get Exciting!!!

So I've decided to start blogging... I'm not one of those amazing people that can move you in writing... But I have a feeling life is going to start getting exciting and I want to be able to share it with anyone who cares!








Last week I was in Las Vegas at the beautiful Tahiti Village putting on a Leadership Event for about 80 Scentsy Leaders and their Spouses. It was amazing!! We all had an amazing time and I feel we all got to learn and grow so much!!!

The event was March 17th-19th. Three days were packed full of training and fun. We had a beach party Meet-n-Greet on Thursday, which happened to be St. Patty's day. We have food, music, lot's of laughs, 5 hour energies and an Irish Fiddler!!
One of our Super Star Director's brought a Costco bulk size box of 5 hour energy drinks lol and we were all taking them left and right. Below is Heather, Michelle, and Phil all excited to take their shots.... LMAO and now here is after they took the 5 hour energy shots....

HA HA Look at those faces!! Love it!!


So any ways this was the Meet-N -Greet. there was Much Much more, but i couldn't get them all on. Check out my post in the next few days and I'll tell you all about the training =)
