Today was a GREAT day! Here's us as we began our day:
 |
| Three Dames - Dawn, Geneva, and Stephanie (from left to right) |
Then onto classes. We learned LOTS and had LOTS of fun! During one of the classes, it was announced that there was going to be a new item in Memento Mall for a new product. Here's the item from Memento Mall:

| New Memento Mall item - for a NEW product! It will be in the upcoming Holiday Mini! |
And when I was leaving Memento Mall, I saw the display booth for the Ronald McDonald House. As many of you may know, I am now the Lead for the Columbus, Ohio Ronald McDonald House. At Stampin'Up, they have a Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) Coordinator. I have spoken with her via telephone and email and she is always so nice. Well, guess who was at the booth? The lovely Lana! She's on the left in this picture.

| Lana is just so nice! |
Geneva and I even saw a fellow demonstrator from New Hampshire that we had met TWO YEARS ago! (See
this post here). How many other fun conventions have YOU been to that you've met someone two years previous and can pick up the conversation like those two years had never lapsed? Stamping is such fun! It was so nice to see Shannon!
Well fast forward to General Session. They did another Prize Patrol like when Geneva won? Well, guess what? They chose the Red Swirls this time and guess who had red swirls? You go it - ME! So my wonderful friend and downline Stephanie took my picture!
 |
| Yeah Me! I won! Thanks so much Stampin'Up! Geneva is on the right enjoying my happiness too! |
Here's a close up of the product AND an idea that Sara demonstrated on stage.
 |
| Close up of my winnings! |
 |
| Fast and Easy Cards using the Simply Scrappin' Kit - just like the one I won from Prize Patrol! |
And then Stampin'Up! announced that we ALL would receive the Simply Sent Kit, Great Day (it's late and I think that's what it is called. I'll confirm that tomorrow):
 |
| Wasn't this so nice of Stampin'Up! to give one of these to EACH demonstrator at Convention! YEAH Stampin'Up! |
All in all - a wonderful day was had by all!
Then in the evening, we went to the Awards Ceremony and Geneva was able to meet Tami White:

So with that I will bid you adieu. I'll post more tomorrow. Hope you are enjoying these updates from Convention as much as I am enjoying Convention.
Enjoying your adventures so much. With reports from so many bloggers, I feel like I'm seeing a lot of what goes on at convention! Can't wait to see some of this stuff IRL.
