Fall Rally

This past weekend I attended lia sophia's fall rally up in Raystown, PA. What a FUN rally!!! I always enjoy going to all these functions. 7 of us from our local unit drove up together and got lost a couple times...LOL! Those GPS systems aren't always 100% reliable, but we made it after a couple turn arounds, a stop at an ancient gas station (you know, the ones with the pumps from like the 1950's...we didn't even know how to work them LOL) and a lovely stop at a bug/spider infested outhouse. EWW!!! Anyway, on our way up we had our monthly meeting where my manager would give out awards to those who made certain goals, etc. I was the top seller for our unit in July so she gave me the following: a $50 gift certificate to Red Lobster (YUM), a free piece of jewelry out of the catalog (my choice), 4 supplies (things we use in the business like order forms, invitaions, etc), and this awesome lia sophia water bottle. I was so excited to be recognized on this accomplishment! I just LOVE my manager and all of the girls in our unit...we have so much fun everytime we are together!

The rally itself was a blast! They fed us breakfast and lunch, had separate "breakout" sessions where we learned the tricks from the top sellers in the company. We also heard from the lady who has been working with lia sophia since 1981 and is a "star zone manager" (she has over 5,000 ladies underneath her that she makes commission off of)....let's just say that her paychecks are HUGE...she makes a couple million a year doing this! Unbelievable!!! She is such a sweetheart and so motivational. We were all given a free piece of jewelry out of the new catalog...I love the earrings I got! Raffle baskets lined up around the room giving us a chance to win them by purchasing raffle tickets. I unfortunately did not win one but a couple of the other girls in our unit did!! Lucky them!! It's so fun to see what everyone is wearing and how they wear them (everyone is wearing lia sophia of course). It was just a lovely day out with the ladies...something I definitely needed after all this crap going on with my full time job. I can't wait for the next rally in spring!

Here are a couple pictures from the day.
