Now Open for Business



I have just recently decided become a consultant with The Body Shop and start my own home-based business with The Body Shop At Home division. You have probably heard of them or seen their stores in the mall. You usually are walking at the mall or in an airport and suddenly can smell their products from several yards away.

I recently hosted a party and decided that this would be a great opportunity for me to capitalize on my privilege of staying home with the kids and yet still have something on the side that I can work on and do for myself. They have great products and the "hook" for me was the company's Core Values-of which my favorite was their commitment to Community Trade. Community trade is a program that acquires natural ingredients from foreign small producers at a fair price to help them cover their costs and invest in their future. Some of the Community Trade ingredients come from countries like Ghana, Namibia, India and Tahiti just to name a few.

The Body Shop At Home carries all the products that you can find in a store and more. They have make-up, skin care, bath and body products, hair, fragrance and home fragrances, men's and well being products. Call me your personal shopper whenever you need any type of these
products and I would be happy to get them for you or better yet - host a party so you and your friends can be pampered to a night of relaxation. I would appreciate your support as I venture into this new business so don't forget to check out my site if you are looking for gifts for family and friends or if you need a little pampering yourself.

National Finals Rodeo in Vegas!

This last weekend we had the awesome opportunity to the first two nights of the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. Lance and Meghan joined us and we had an amazing time. We were invited by Andrew's client Steve with Coors Brewing Company, they are big sponsors of the rodeo. We did a little gambling, slept in, had good sushi, and did a little shopping but mostly we relaxed and enjoyed the rodeo. We checked out the Cowboy Christmas fair and picked up some cowboy hats for the event. Before the rodeo we hung out in the Coors Racing Team airstream rv and after we spent time in the Coors hospitality tent complete with music, a bar and last but not least the MECHANICAL BULL! All four of us rode it and got bucked off and at the time it was fun, however our old bodies are still recovering. I had bruises up and down my inner thigh and my back and shoulders can hardly move. I am glad that I did it though! Check out the photos of our trip by clicking on the title link above! Thank you Steve and Donna for an amazing time!

Santa is coming to town...

Avery and Fiona braved the cold in downtown Erie so that they could get a photo taken with Santa and have a little hot chocolate. Avery talked about what she would tell Santa all day but when it came down to sitting on his lap...she would have none of it. So, Santa held Blake and she stood about 5 feet away. The picture didn't come out at all so instead we snapped a shot of the girls. Fiona lives down the street from us and Avery is a big fan of hers.
