MK Seminar 2011~ Awards Night

Oh my gosh! This was So much more than I could have ever imagined! There was dancing, singing, bands, lights, fire, music and gowns. It was spectacular!! I was like a kid in a candy store with all of my excitement!

Each year, a woman is chosen to receive the honor of "Miss Go Give". This is a woman who gives of herself. Is generous. And exemplifies everything Mary Kay stood for. This year's winner was Palia Curry. I was fortunate enough to spend time with her and get to know her (my Director was her roommate). And I am truly honored to know her. She completely deserved this honor!

Ok this guy was one of our entertainments. His name is Patrick. I don't remember his last name. But he was a contestant on "The Voice". And his mom is an MK consultant. :) But he was fantastic. Lovely to listen to!

Lori in her gown. Isn't she just gorgeous?!

My gown for the night. Love it!

These lights are on the ceiling in the convention center. They were beautiful.

MK Seminar 2011~ MK Headquarters

I had the opportunity to tour the Mary Kay Headquarters. It was really awesome. There's a museum. And we got to go through the corporate offices. And I got to see Mary Kay's office. It was awesome. I loved it. :)

I think this was my favorite thing in the museum. Lol

MK's office. They've kept it the way she left it all these years. :)

Seminar! Area Night

Each National Sales Director has a night for their area. I had such a blast! We had entertainment (which was great) and the food was to die for! I'm so blessed to have the NSD that I do. She's an amazing woman.

Oh heaven! This cheesecake was phenomenal! It was infused with orange and had shots of chocolate in it. And then it had the raspberry and chocolate drizzled on it. I still dream about that cheesecake. Lol

Beautiful Lori (my sales Director) and Wonderful Nina

Seminar!

At the Convention Center, they had this big room for us to eat our meals in. It was amazing how organized it all was. I can describe it best by saying they herded us like cattle. Lol. Seriously, we walked in the door and they ushered us to the next table and it was all done seat by seat, row by row, table by table. Completely organized. I thought it was awesome.

I knew that this was going to be an amazing experience. But I did not expect all of this. The arena was huge, the stage was magnificent and the set up was superb.

This kind of shows you how many people there were (this was a shot of half the arena). And there are 5 different seminar times. This was just 1.

They had all of the National Sales Directors get up and do a can can line. It was cool.

I have to say that I did not expect it to be a show. But it really was. There were different performances, of all kinds. Music and dancing with lights and fire. I swear I shook with excitement the whole time. :)

SEMINAR!! Day 1 and Manufacturing Plant

Oh my goodness! I had such a fabulous time while at Seminar. It was exactly what I needed. I learned SOO much. And I got to meet some of the most amazing women! It was such a wonder the whole time I was there. I think I had bug eyes. I soaked up everything I could!

Haha! Me and a couple other girls went the wrong way on the Subway. So we had to have a pic taken in the station.

We got to go to the MK Manufacturing plant. It was SO cool! And each department had a contest. So they created little stations. Some of them were really good.

Hehe, had to have my picture taken with "Mary Kay"

Ok the castle in this picture is made out of eyeshadow. How cool is that!
