I’m home and had the most wonderful weekend………

November 21, 2011 By Michelle Last

WOW What a weekend.  I had the BEST time at the annual Stampin' Up! Convention at Disneyland Paris this weekend.  I can't believe I did not take a single photo of the downline gifts I made and the 80 swaps which took up 1/3rd of my suitcase.  There was an amazing 19 members of the Pink Ladies who went along and almost half the group travelled on the same flight so the fun started at Heathrow. 

I can tell you that I laughed so hard this weekend that my tummy muscles are still hurting!!

And I have some wonderful news – I won demo of the year again!!!!!  I was giddy with excitement and so proud of my teams achievements and my fantastic customers that made it all possible.  Thank you to everyone who played a part in my wonderful achievement. I truly appreciate you and feel so blessed to be doing a job I love but to receive such a wonderful accolade really is the icing on the cake!

And of course to my lovely patient family who don't always get as much of me as they would like, I hope the £1000 prize might make that a little more bearable.

And of course my little Pippi who was so pleased to see me that she wee'd with excitement when I got home 😀 I don't normally get a reaction from anyone else like that so I was secretly chuffed!

I could not resist making her into Pippi Mouse. she looks delighted doesn't she…..

Anyway, back to convention…………

I will be posting more photo's in the coming days of my prizes and all the beautiful swaps I received so come back for more tomorrow.

Thank you so so much

    Big congratulations Michelle, you deserve it!! Am a bit worried about the fact you seem dissappointed that nobody else wee’s with excitement at seeing you though and I’m sure you wouldn’t be too chuffed with them if they did!!! :0)

    Congratulations – how fantastic. Love Pippa Mouse – I’ve been living in Australia far too long …. I didn’t understand the reference to ‘mouse’ in your last post! Perhaps I need to go home more often – have asked my husband if we could tie it in with one of your quarterly training days but he just frowns at me LOL. Enjoy your prize.

    Congratulations on being demo of the year again! I think I did a little wee with excitement when I saw you at the hotel… but that may have been the result the scary taxi ride through the streets of Paris!
