Polkadaisies...I survived my 1st trunk show!!!

The pouring rain :(

I just had to add a picture of the house. It was amazing!

I survived my first trunk show last week in West Knoxville. I spent most of the week getting everything ready for it, which was exhausting. Rich and the kids went over with me to set up early Thursday morning and as soon as we pulled in the drive way it started pouring the rain. Just my luck! Once we got everything carried in, Rich and the kids left to go shopping. The first session was from 9:30-1:30, then we had lunch and came back for round two, which was from 4-7. I experienced many firsts while I was there, but the most interesting one was watching some customers get Botox. I was surprised at how fast the day went by and I did get to visit with some great people and even met another Becky Cox. It's a small world! I want to thank Allison for inviting me to be a part of it. I didn't know Allison prior to the show, except for what conversations we had had through emails, but I must say that she was so welcoming and made me feel like I had known her for years. Very comforting considering I did not know any one when I arrived. I left with a lot of new customers and the experience of a trunk show under my belt. So...Thank you Allison!!!! You are the best hostess I know!!!

Polkadaisies...halloween name hoodie

I love the hoodies and I'm sure Sadie will have several. I wanted it to be a little different, so I added the ribbon tassel to the hood. These colors are great for us because not only does Sadie get to wear it during October, but she can wear it all winter. Her school colors are orange and black. Go Owls!
