Blessings Abound

What a fabulous day!  My morning started with sipping a cup of delicious pumpkin spice latte' while meeting with a host to close out her super successful party.  Soon after, my adorable 4 year-old grandson came to our house for our weekly Wednesday spoiling.  We had a great time snuggling with a book that he insisted I read FOUR times - of course, I didn't complain a bit.  A while later Papa took him for the "Boys Day Out" of bowling, lunch and shopping while I met with another fabulous host.  Next it was time to get to work on the computer - what a surprise I found when I logged and found FOUR messages from friends or relatives who I haven't seen or chatted with for months.  Their messages made me realize how important it is to stay in touch so I not only responded to those sweet messages but I also sent messages to four others that I haven't reached out to for a while.  I love my friends and family and need to make sure I let them know!  Luckily we have that opportunity often because all of our sons and their families live close by.  In fact, our sons, daughter-in-laws and grandchildren all joined us for dinner tonight.  Those are the times that I feel the most blessed and happiest - I love every minute of my time with our family - especially our grandchildren!!!!  My evening ended with a wonderful visit with another host and her family.  The purpose of the visit was to close her party but the friendship we have developed over the years while I was her son's teacher to the present is so strong that I almost forgot the purpose of my visit!  They are all such a blessing in my life and I enjoyed the fellowship with them immensely.  I'm so thankful for all of the Blessings in my Life! Well folks, It's time to call it a night!!  Sweet Dreams!!!!

Family Grilling Fun for EVERYONE

I'm sorry it's been a while since I blogged - I really enjoy doing it but just didn't set it as a priority which was not good but I admit that's what happened but today I just have to share an exciting thing that happened for my business.  As a Scentsy Family consultant, I love all three of our companies but have to admit I've put Velata at the low end of my focus.  Well, that was until now - they have added a Raclette grill to their line and it's the most fabulous appliances a person can ask for.  It is not just a grill - it's an "experience".   Our family loves to be able to grill their own meals while being with other family members doing the same.  It's such a great chance for us all to be eat together without having someone doing all the work of preparing the meal. It truly is a Family Experience that is super Fun!  The exciting event I want to tell you about was at my Lead Group (which is a bunch of business people who meet weekly and give each others "leads" for their businesses). It was my turn to present so I chose to feature Velata and the Raclette Grill. My wonderful hubby came with me and we grilled a variety of foods for the members to enjoy. To say it was a hit is an understatement.  I received a lot of orders for the grills but those sales didn't excite me as much as the fact that I was able to show my friends how they can create more quality family time by using this grill to Gather the Family Around the table while cooking together.   Putting family first is a priority of mine and I'm so proud to think that by cooking on this grill lots of other families will be reacquainting themselves with their families, too!  I can't wait until the next time our family can gather for grilling on the Raclette again!
