So today’s tales include our first night and my swaps.
After convention was finished Brian and I went to the Mormon Tabernacle choir concert and out for dinner, then it was time to pack up in Salt Lake City and travel to Park City to our incentive trip hotel. This was the view as we drove up to the hotel.
The lobby area was really special and through the open door was the gathering place, a really lovely library with comfy sofas, sweets, drinks, snacks and prizes……!
The room was lovely, as always it’s the little things that make you smile……..That picture of a man’s shirt and tie is on the television that is in the mirror, yes ‘in’ the mirror, so brushing your teeth meant you could catch up on the news too!
Our first dinner was outside under the stars and lots of fairy lights, the table was beautiful, I adore yellow roses ! Don’t Rhoda and Kerry look fabby!
The evening was completed with the first of many gifts……..all wrapped up in a Hessian Sack……..you’ll have to pop back soon to see what was inside !
I promised you some swaps, I made 3 gifts for some lovely friends, Angela, Annette and Ronda.
And these are the swaps I made, for convention and the incentive trip. If you are coming to my class on the 31st August and don’t want to see a couple of the cards you’ll be making (although the colours will be different) you need to look away now……………….and if you want to find out more about my classes click HERE!
