My Heritage Makers gig

I'll be the first to admit that I work very hard to be the best I can be in my company. But it's moments like these that I just LOVE what I do! Last week I attended the leadership retreat for all Heritage Makers leaders and learned from the best of the best how to be my best and grow my amazing business. This is a photo of me and our company President Doug Cloward, who is a constant inspiration to me as I continue the climb to success as a future Executive.
Not only has my financial profile changed as a result of this amazing company, but I have grown to love the women I get to work with on a daily basis. This is a photo of all of the leaders from my team who attended the conference with me. Out of the 50 or so that were there I am honored to have had 11 of them from my team!! These ladies inspire me and keep me plugging along . . . and I would be nowhere without them. I LOVE YOU GUYS!
When you attend a leadership conference you get to know your roomies quite well too. We were given an assignment to create a recorded skit on overcoming objections in our business and our team did an amazing job . . . so good in fact that WE WON the competition!!! This was us winning the award!
Above all that I'm grateful for in this experience is the close personal relationships that have blessed my life. Some absolutely amazing women cross your path and this little lady isn't getting too far from my heart anytime soon. Jen and I met at a leaders conference and have been close ever since. It's comforting to know that there are people out there in the world who love you unconditionally and want you to succeed because they love you and not because it helps their agenda. Jen Zucker is one of those people in my life . . . my cup runneth over.

Swim Team

So we've experienced a lot of firsts this past year and this weekend brought yet another one! Jordyn made the Spanish Fork swim team and we couldn't be more proud of her. She's a fish in the water so I shouldn't be surprised that she's doing really well. I loved watching her face when she climbed out of the pool after her first heat.

She was glowing. So was I.
I volunteered to help out and be a timer (that's me in the yellow jacket and hat). All the parents have to help out at one meet during the year and I chose to get it over with nice an quick. Jordyn even lucked into my lane for her first heat - it was awesome to have a front row seat while she made Dickerson history. I had no idea what I was in for. After your kid gets done swimming you can go home. But not the timers! We got to stay the entire time. 6 am makes for an early morning . . . and not leaving until noon made it a long day! I loved every minute of it!!!

Zack turns 15

Holy Crap!! Do I have a 15 year old??? Wow. I guess I should be grateful he's not old enough to drive yet! But still . . . Zack is growing like a weed. He's almost as tall as Todd and I and he's a size 10 shoe so I think he's going to pass his dad by next year!!

He's as comical as ever and has grown so much emotionally this year too. What a MAN he's turning into. I'm proud of Zack and all he's accomplishing!

Gowing backwards

Do you ever feel like there just aren't enough hours in the day? Stupid question right. I never have enough time to do it all . . . and our family blog got chosen to be the one thing that goes on the back burner! But I'm getting too many request for updates so I'm going to travel BACK in time to try to make up for lost time. We've had a lot going on since my last post (oh my . . . 3 months ago) so I made a "mid year resolution" to do better.

Thanks to all of our friends and family who love us so much that they want to see what we're up to all the time! ;) amy
