Salt Lake City, Utah | YL Convention Part 2

It's now been a few weeks since I was in Salt Lake but I am still pretty excited about the experience I had there! If you missed part 1 of my trip you'll have to go read that, it was a hot mess! (Part 1)

This was day 2 and it was the field day for me! Actually, day 1 was going to be field day but because of all the canceling flights due to weather, I missed my scheduled date at the fields. But once I made it in I went and asked if I could get my Lavender field day changed, because they are so overly nice there they made it happen for me and I was pretty excited that it all came together so nicely.

BEING MARY | Lindsay Anderson

Thanks for hoping on this Monday afternoon!

I am so excited to be sharing with you this wonderful and heartfelt story from Linsday. In May, Linsday was asked to do a devotion for our ladies Mother's Day gathering. As I sat there in a room filled with woman of all ages and chapters of life I saw that there was not a dry eye, along with me.

This story touched me and I wanted it to be shared.

Thank you, Lindsay, for letting me share and for opening up for us to relate and feel like it's okay to not be perfect, and to be more like Mary.


Linsday Anderson:

When Lori asked me about a month ago to speak to you all tonight, I laughed because I thought, “what could I possibly share or encourage these woman, most of them older than I am.” But deep down inside, I knew I would end up doing it. Just because, that Is the way God works. When you’re asked to “pray about something” God usually changes your heart, and not always the way you have it all planned either.

Salt Lake City, Utah | YL Convention Part 1

I can not even put into words right now the excitement I felt when I arrived into Salt Lake City last week! 

The struggle of getting me there was rough. A canceled flight, rescheduled a day later, 4-hour layover.... yeah, a 12 hour day then turned into a 17 hour day because of the time changes. So when this day ended I was so wiped, I was extremely exhausted from there on out too for the week. But it was a crazy exciting week, to say the least! 

The first day was spent with my friend Liza and some new friends. We visited "Aroma Share" where vendors come and show us all the fun goodies we can use with our oils, there are educational booths there was a natural makeup booth, jewelry, personalized bags etc. Just a whole bunch of awesome stuff ha. 

Then we ate at Fat Jacks where I got a bunless burger that was to die for (maybe because that was my first meal of the day!) I will be going back there though next year, so so good! 

After that, we headed to "General Session" It's like the opening of convention and it's where they release the new products. That's where 30,000 other Oilers come together and it's like a huge party of cheers for every new product. I think that's when things really got exciting because truly, I love this company and everything they do to make it easier and convenient for us to have products that are safe for us and the kids in our lives. Just really am so glad I am part of it.

Pinching myself at how blessed I am! I have the most adorable and loving, fun and silly friends/clients to photograph! I just smile at how thankful I am for the time to be able to capture memories, moments in time. REAL moments and love of a family. There are silly moments but there are sweet moments too. I love both <3
