Wow what a week

I spent the week with some great friends July 23 threw August 1st. I first went to Idaho Falls, saw the Blue Angels!! and went to the Lava to the water part. Then we headed off to Denver for the Scentsy Convention. It was so great. I learned a lot. One thing that struck me was how we want to be like other people and that we should be our own person. Live life to your own potential not someone else's potential. I also learned that we should first take care of ourselves before we can take care of someone else. And to get rid of clutter. To make life simple. And to give more then you receive. To have generosity.

Of course I had to do some shopping while I was there. Our motel wasn't far from the 16th street walking mall. What a blast. Wow is there a lot of people there. No matter what time it is. It was a great trip and I had a lot of fun and learning. Next year is Texas!! Hope I can go.
