I am finally getting back to normal life now that our Convention is over! Holy cow! I was so tired after Covention this year that I felt I should hibernate for a few months and get some sleep. The excitement and anticipation of Convention, new products, announcements and presentations makes it so I can hardly sleep at all!!!
I LOVED this year's Convention more than any other one ( I probably say that every year- but I mean it this year). What a great fun time we had celebrating all of our amazing, fabulous demonstrators all over the world. I love our demos! They are the greatest people in the world.
I have tried over and over to explain to my kids what I do for a living. How do you explain geting up on stage and stamping in front of 6000 women and 3 men :) Well, the kids got to come down to the Salt Palace and see me present on the maainstage. It was awesome. There they were on the front row, my little chickens and Teresa!! Everytime I saw them on the big camera screen I almost got a little teary. SOOOOOO cute. Of course I threatened to take away everything they own if they ran around all over the place :) As any good parent would. On the way home in the car Coltin asked his mom "Is Daddy famous mom?" HA HA HA HA HA - "Only one week a year sweetie!"- she said. It is good to shrink that big head of mine!
So what was your favorite part of Convention??? I am dying to know all the things that you just LOVED?

My favorite part? That deserves at least a top ten list...but if I have to narrow it down I would say check-in day is my favorite because it's like being reunited with a few thousand of my favorite people!! And I also deeply love awards night (dressing up, seeing amazing accomplishments, staying up late). I also really love setting my alarm for 5:15am. :)

I forgot one more thing: PRIZE PATROL!!!
from what i hear you are famous, popping up all over the place with your fabulous talents! =) did i hear you sang at the american idol thing......everyone said you sang better than everyone else!
Ok so don't be modest you are totally famous at least in the little part of the world we call Stampin' Up! Don't kid yourself.
After the general session I got a great pic of your youngest daughter playing in the confetti...too cute...

You are soooooooo loved by all the demonstrators, Jaron!! :) My favorite part of convention this year was GETTING THE PINK PURSE AT THE AWARDS BOOTH!! Oh my gosh..what a shock!! What an honor! :) Patty
I could go on and on about my favorite things about convention especially since it was my first one; however, I will sum it up with three letteres: UPS!!!
How cool was the closing general session?
I would have to say that sitting by you at your class was my favorite. HA HA! And of course getting my picture taken with you. And your scrapbook presentation on the mainstage! I think you are famous in my book! Check out this post there I compare our last 3 convention pictures together: http://rydenkim.blogspot.com/2008/08/oh-jaron.html
Well, I don't know about that. I mean, people refer to you on a first-name only basis. They ask to have pictures taken with you. Your pictures are all over the Internet. People want to be you when they grow up. They hope that their city will be added to the schedule when you tour.
I would say you're pretty famous...
