My latest ReAds....good books

I am not sure how but I have been able to find some time to read... i took the advice of my sister-in-law and read this book called: The Art of racing in the Rain.  Wow!  I loved it! It is told through the eyes of the dog.

The next book that I have to RAVE about is another Stephanie Plum by Janet Evonivich.... Smokin' Seventeen!! LOVE it!!

I am SUCH a fan!!

That is all that I have finished so far! Please let me know if you have any recommendations for me!

HOw Do yOu KNow?

Lately I have been starting to think about the right school for Ashlee.  She is starting kindergarten this year and so far I am not sure where to send her. 

I know every mom thinks their kid is the SMARTEST, but she really is! She is already reading and writing allot.  I am worried that if I pick the wrong school she will loose interest in the learning because she will get overlooked because she is already reading.

What are some things I can do to help her? Does anyone have actual lessons or workbook or reading book ideas?
Am I over thinking this and making it too hard?  What do you think?!

Marykay Seminar

I am SO excited to be able to tell you about this great trip that I just got back from!  I spent 5 day 4 nights in Dallas TX.  Wow the weather was HOT, the Pink Cadillac ladies plentiful and SO many nice and amazing women to meet and be inspired by!

I started my Marykay business last February and this was my first chance to go to Seminar!  I do not want to miss another!  I am on such a great high... I want to try so many new things for my business!  and the best part about it is, no one will judge me if I am not able to do all that great things... but they will be there to support me in what I do get done!
Here are a few shots from the great classes and shows that I was able to see!

 This is Marykay Headquarters!

 They had Cheerleaders for US at the front door!

 A view of Dallas from the Marykay conference room!

 This is Marykay's office!

 Some of the art that she chose!... very nice ;)

 Awards night at Seminar... this year's queen is crowned!

 Entertainment! (the theme was Imagine) they performed to John Lennon's song Imagine...

 All throughout the show there were lots of clips of Marykay and her encouraging words of wisdom.  I feel I have learned allot about her and what kind of person she was!

 Her philosophy was  God First , family second and career third!... amazing ... not many company's are!

And of course this is this year's new Cadillac winners!!! and the new Cadillac!
