What.A.Weekend!!!!!

This weekend my company took us to Orlando for a Holiday party. We were also meeting with some other companies that we are partnering up with. We stayed at the Hard Rock hotel on Universal grounds...it was beautiful!

Friday night we had a cocktail party in the lobby and it was so nice! We just laughed, laughed, and laughed some more...I'm so blessed to have wonderful co-workers. We also met some other folks we'll be working with in the future, so that was great too. We were also given our Christmas bonus, which by the way was gone by noon the next day haha.

Afterwards, we all went to the City Walk which is part of Universal. It just has some places to go dancing, eat, and a little shopping. On my little journey, I spotted this purse at the Fossil store....




However, I wasn't sure about paying $94.00 for it. However, on Saturday we went shopping at some outlets and it was on sale for $59.99!! So I grabbed it, along with this one...





This girl in my class this semester had this purse and I LOVED it! It was only $49.99! I also grabbed a super cute little makeup bag!

We also hit up the Coach outlet. I have a hard time buying real coaches now because I have so many fake ones. It kinda takes the value away from them. So I got a cute fuscia keychain purse for $25 and called it a day there. Then we went to the Dooney store. Im not typically a Dooney person....but when I saw this bag, I had to get it. It just screams summer time to me, and plus it would be cute for carrying Presleys stuff, or her overnight bag.

Heres Presleys first Dooney haha....

Ok...Now on to Saturday night. This is where all the craziness went down!!!!

We went to our Christmas party which was in one of the ball rooms at the hotel...it was gorgeous! We were all dressed up and looking beautiful which just makes it more fun!

First, we all did a raffle to raise money for this benefit we started in El Salvador called Helping Hands. Whatever we raised, the owners would match 50%. When they drew your #, you got to pick a gift card which could be valued at $200, $500, or $1000!! There was $20,000 total of gift cards.

I drew a $200 gift card and was thrilled! My friend Laura at work drew $1000...then $500...THEN $200!!! I was so excited for her! There was actually only 5 $1000 gift cards, and 3 of our the people on our team got them!

BUT....listen to this! They told us that they would draw a ticket for someone to get HALF of the money that was raised for Helping Hands....which we raised $34,000. So that meant that one person would get $17,000.....and it was another girl on our team!!!! How amazing is that?? SHE IS GETTING $17,000!!!! WHAT A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS GIFT!!!!

BUT...it doesnt end there either! FIVE of our guys got brand new SS Camaros!!! They deserved them because they basically started our company from the ground up. We all started around the same time and only had about 2000 customers...now we have over 150,000 and are #1 in the nation!!

I was so proud of all our team members! It was a fabulous weekend....all but the travel home. But IM not gonna spoil a good post talking about that!!!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend as well! Only 11 more days till Christmas!!!!
