I must have said that like a thousand times last weekend...
i am not bi-lingual...
not even sure if that's how you spell it?
LOL
to say the least...
but it means Good...
right?
ha ha.
Last weekend I had the utmost pleasure to attend one of the most FUN scrapbooking events ever.
last year was just as fun.
so when Yamille asked me back my answer was Que Bueno...
What a weekend.
Great classes...
8 back to back 9 including the VIP event on Friday.
650 amazing women.
Tim, the Glitz Girls, Ginger & Laura and I taught a VIP class to 150 lucky girls on Friday...
it was a ball...
there was scrapping...
and there was dancing...
at this event you have to dance if you want to win a prize...
love this.
Love Yamille and her amazing, hard working, tireless team.
HUGE shout out to my darling helper Amanda who worked her little booty off for me!
thank you sweets.
i love getting to go to events like this...
the girls are so excited to learn fun new techniques and they are so grateful to have us come.
the girls in Puerto Rico are so kind and loving.
love this.
this year Yamille came up with the brilliant idea of the Iron Scrapbooking Challenge...
you know, like the Iron Chef...
well, luckily for me Tim was my partner...
we donned war paint and ink and had a ball...
{i mostly laughed, danced and did whatever Tim said}
the Glitz Girls partnered with Donna Downey...
it was hellarious...
Tim and I think we won...
i mean really?
he's Tim Holtz...
we did put our heart into it and it was a ton of fun...
Brilliant Yamille...
It was fun hanging with Ginger and Laura...
love me some Glitz Girl goodness...
and of course Donna and i always can muster up a little trouble...
Tim & Mario kept us in line...
well sorta...
Monday we said our goodbyes...
headed to the airport...
and to my total stupidity i miss-read my itinerary and had totally missed my flight.
really?
first time ever.
Yamille took me to Old San Juan...
we took photos...
we ate lunch...
did a little shopping...
{new coach bag for me, sale, coupon practically free}
brilliant.
i guess the universe was telling me i needed a day to chill...
it was the perfect day.
luckily the Glitz Girls stayed an extra day to sight see so they let me bunk with them...
love.
we ordered room service and talked...
laughed.
and even cried.
love them.
it was a great weekend.
see you next year.
{i hope}
Congrats Margie! Love Authentique, can't wait to see it in the stores!

However, if a stranger already knows the name of your Wi-Fi network they can still gain access.
