Yes, convention was almost two weeks ago (well the start of it anyway) and I am still feeling the effects- the only good part is that these effects are all good…. inspiration, motivation, creativity… and a little bit of tiredness but coffee fixes that right up!  Convention is one of the BEST parties of the year and I am so glad that I was there this year and will CERTAINLY be there next year too!

This year I had 13 team members join me- that is my best turnout yet.  Convention is an investment so it can be hard to see the payoff if you have never been but I think all of these ladies now know that it is totally worth it!  Here are just a few highlights.

Private meeting with the mouse! Yes please!! For the Director’s dinner the company hired Mickey for a photo op- and I later met Minnie during the awards ceremony (I won 9th place for team building in North America- a HUGE accomplishment as Canadians do not usually place in the top ten!)

After the photos and our lovely dinner we were taken into the California Adventure park to watch the World of Colour Show- it is wonderful! There I had time to connect with my gal-pal Denise! Another aspect I love about convention is the time to connect with old friends AND meet new ones!

After being up late, we woke up super-early to run/walk a 5K- here is Denise and I again getting ready for this one.  My friend Anita photo-bombed us! I will admit- I walked it- took photos on the way and just enjoyed the view of the park with NO other people!

There is LOTS more that goes on- I may post more in another post (let me know if you would like to see more).

This year my BFF Sarah and I did stay an extra day and played at Disneyland itself- oh my…. the California disney is so quaint and just awesome! We had a great time… and only felt a little guilty about being there without our children!

Until we craft again, The Brae-er
