Younique Conference :)

I had the privledge of attending my first Younique conference a few weekends ago at the Gaylord Texan resort in Grapevine. All I can say is blown away!! I have to admit that I was a little nervous at first. I was going with my cousin, who is also a presenter, but I just didn't quite know what to expect.  I had an incredible time meeting all kinds of girls that I met on facebook but finally getting to meet them in person was so much fun! I can not even describe to you how awesome of a company Younique is. The founder, Derek and his sister, Melanie walked around the whole entire weekend mingling and meeting us all. Derek's wife and chidren were also there running around. An amazing company with real life founders that actually give you the time of the day.

And a picture with the gorgeous co-founder, Melanie :)

The first night of the conference we had western night. There were 2,000 ladies that joined the conference from all over the world. The farthest traveler coming from Austraila. We enjoyed an amazing evening of BBQ and western line dancing.

The second day we had some amazing speakers, Bill Rancic being one of them (the first canidate hired by Donald Trump). He really did have great motivational words to share with us all.

Younique went all out at this conference. When we checked into our rooms, the clerk handed us our room key and it was a key with the Younique logo on it . Every single employee at the resort was wearing a Younique button. There was also Younique logo's all through the hotel and even shining down on the floors. We felt special needless to say!

Saturday evening we had formal night. We got all pretty in our dress and heels. Had a fancy dinner and Derek and Melanie got up on stage and let us in on some amazing things happening within this company. 

Coming in 2015 they are starting The Younique Foundation! It is a get away for battered and abused women to come and get support and help they need! This was Derek and his wife's goal to accomplish at the 5 year mark of the company but they are able to start it after only 2 short years because of the fast paced growth! They are using their own profit from Younique to start this!!(since we are %100 debt free!!!!)

When you're at a huge convention with thousands of people & the FOUNDERS on stage say "despite what we've been through, I believe in a BIG GOD & that is the only reason we are here today."

--I know I am exactly where I am supposed to be.... with an Amazing company that has blown me away this weekend in so many ways!!!!

On top of all the amazing things happening within the company they let us in on a secret... we were going to leave convention with over $500 worth of product!!!! Holy moly!!!! And we did. We recieved all the new products that are launching in the fall and they threw in a huge makeup caboodle to top it off!!! 

Here are a few pics from the night :)

After a long exhausting weekend, I came home to my house being picked up and a pretty bouquet of flowers picked out all by the kids :) Grateful for my hubby who kept the kids entertained while I played!
