Scentsy Family Reunion 2014 - St. Louis

Oh my GOD!!  I cannot tell you how awesome this year's Reunion was.  Every year I have been to Reunion I have felt a fire and a love for this amazing company.  This was my 3rd Reunion, but this year was different. I still feel re-energized but I feel like I am absolutely high.  I know......it sounds stupid right? Geesh what a cliche!  I have this strong desire to succeed more in my Scentsy business than I have ever felt.  Ok I admit it....I might have drank too much of the purple kool-aid?  But seriously I LOVE IT!

Not only did we have a blast, but we saw an amazing band named "Train" perform on the first night; we learnt  what "Hot Pockets" are by Jim Gaffigan and we were moved to tears by motivational speaker Kevin O'Leary.

Matt and I particularly had a very good time with our Scentsy family and even took in our first MLB game watching the Cardinals hit a home run out of the park to win the game!

St. Louis is a very cool city and full of so much history.  We met some great locals, had some wonderful meals and learnt a bit about the Mid-west!  And of course we drank some....errrr...... um a few beers!!

We love our Scentsy family and always love seeing them.  We only see them once a year but its so much fun!

Seeing and hearing about the new Scentsy products is always neat!  We learnt that the new buddy's will be Stella the Unicorn and Scout the Dragon.  HOW FUN!!!

The new "Cause" warmer will be in honor of Breast Cancer Research.  How beautiful is this?  Scentsy gives so much to the charities in their communities. 

So far this year's "Cause" Buddy, Roosevelt - raised $466,518 for the March of Dimes in the USA.  And $81,067 for the Starlight Children's Foundation in Canada.  Seriously?? how do you not love a company that is so generous?

Ok the Christmas warmers are just to die for.......  I think I see a few of these new ones in my house this Christmas!!

The free product giveaways are fun!!! We get our warmers and plug ins at home!!  That's 8 warmers and 2 plug ins!!  OMG - Where is the UPS man??!!!

Not sure why this year felt different to me.  I am not sure how to explain this new found flame inside of me.  I thought surely it will fade once I come back home to reality.  Nope.....still feeling the high.  I have gone back to work and back to the regular routine.  I have decided that I won't let anyone pee in my pool!  No thanks! Life is too short to get upset over someone else's issues. They can be control freaks, yell at me, name call and criticize me all they want.  I am happy and will continue to be happy. I choose to not let the little things bug me.  I cannot control how other people treat me. I can only control how I treat others.  I have that right. 

I feel a huge change coming our way.  I am energized and ready to work hard at my building my Scentsy business.  I am ready to work with my team and help them build their Scentsy business!  I want to succeed at this and make every one's lives as wonderful as mine is!  Shit I'm so damn  happy how can I not share this with everyone???

I am so excited and already looking forward to July 2015 when I will see my Scentsy family in Las Vegas, where I attended my very first Reunion.  We are having way too much fun!  You should join us!!

July with Us and Scentsy

Scent of the Month - Vanilla Bean Buttercream






* THERE is no Warmer of the Month, for July.  Unfortunately all the warmers that Scentsy had made did not pass their quality assurance.  And Scentsy was not comfortable in passing this item along to their customers.  Don't worry!!  The August warmer promises to be AWESOME!

Don't forget this is the last month that we will be selling Grace Adele.  There are some really good deals on right now.

GRACE ADELE being discontinued

It was a shock to everyone to find out last week that the Grace Adele line will be discontinued after July 31st, it will no longer be part of the Scentsy family.

The announcement came direct by video from Heidi & Orville Thompson.

Heidi and Orville wanted to personally explain the logic behind this decision, so they made the announcement via a video message on Thursday, May 22. We understand this is an emotional announcement, and our top priority is addressing your concerns.

If you have further questions after watching the video, please consult the Grace Adele Brand Announcement Frequently Asked Questions posted on the Resources tab of your Workstation. You can also contact Consultant Support (1-877-855-0617, 5 a.m.-10 p.m. MST). A dedicated team is standing by to answer your questions.

That being said ...... Grace Adele will be discounted and sales will start happening on June 11th.  Check my website often for updated specials www.ilovehandbags.ca

Currently the Orange handbags are on clearance but starting JUNE 11th there will be bigger discounts that ever.  

*Now is the time to get the Grace Adele that you've been wanting*

Look Ma we're eating our veggies....well sort of

I've made a conscious effort to eat better.  Ok well.  Maybe I'm not giving my potato chip addiction nor my addiction to french fries. Oh and I do love eating chocolate and have a sweet tooth.

Well .... let me re-phrase that..... I've decided that I am going to make myself a smoothie for breakfast in the morning.  Seeing as I don't have a lot of time in the morning and I spend a lot of my time stuck in traffic, I thought it would be a great idea to be sitting in rush hour sipping a nice and healthy smoothie!

I used to swear by the Greens super powder when I was diligent about working out and eating healthy.  So I went and picked up a large container of Greens.  I am always trying to eat more veggies and more salads but sometimes those fries just call my name.   I think this is a good alternative :)

Here are some awesome recipes that we have tried the past couple of weeks.

Kiwi, Kale & Banana Recipe

1 ripe banana peeled

1 large orange peeled and seedless

2 cups of raw kale

2 Kiwi peeled

1 scoop of Greens

1/2 cup crushed ice

1 cup of liquid (almond milk or orange juice).

Place all ingredients into a high speed blender.  Blend till smooth. 

Yummy!!!! I prefer it with almond milk as the OJ was a bit too acidic for me. 

--------------------------------

Banana, Avocado & Orange Juice Recipe

1 Frozen Banana

1 Avocado

1 cup fresh spinach

2 cups Orange Juice

1 - 2 scoops greens

Add the frozen banana and avocado to the blender

Tear apart spinach and add in the blender

Pour orange juice and the 1-2 scoops of Greens

Blend till smooth.

This was so GOOD!!!  It was very filling but so tasty!
