HAPPY Halloweenie :-)

Happy Halloween!.....

This has been one of the best Halloweens since I started my business!... What can I say.... I'm a kid at heart. Life is too short and you need to enjoy life by being silly, laughing and creating memories for your entire family. Medical studies show that laughing is good for your health!

What I found amusing this year, for the first time in my life I had to create a costume that would not be scary. So I though I would be a cute red head Hilly Billy with big glasses and big teeth. While we visited my little girl's parade, my little girl asked my husband why I had dressed scary. Then we went to my son's pre-school and took part in their school carnival. My son's teacher said she was taken by surprise by my outfit.... she thought it gross.... I sure love Halloween!... It's time for creativity, fun, fun, fun...

Much time was spent preparing for a Birthday party, working on projects with my children in preparation for Halloween. I created a little mini me for my little girl and my little boy. I used old nylons, stuffed them with batting, used clothes hangers that gave the bodies support and my children's old clothes . We had so many compliments from our Treak or Treaters this year about our Halloween Props. We also had back ground music with scary Halloween music.

Hope all of you had a blast this year!... Next year I'm creating a mini - Me of myself and my hubby. I better stop enjoying all the sweet stuff before I keep growing... Yikes.................

Stay tuned as Addy's drives away in the add mobile with sparkle and bling.

International Women's Conference

I had an opportunity of attending MIPEC www.mipekenterprises.com "First women in Business from Latin America Forum on October, 26th & 27th. This was such an awesome experience, meeting so many ladies from El Salvador, Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, Colombia, Argentina....... Everyone had a chance to listen to so many great speakers, enjoy the beautiful cultures, entertainment and nice trip to Newport Beach. We cruised on the Icon....what a nice pleasant time filled with so much laughter, lively spirit and fun .

MIPEC Mission :
To utilize market research based on the current market conditions of the Hispanic Consumer in the United Status in order to highlight buying patterns, re-engineer commercial processes, recommend product redesign, and customer service that will facilitate Hispanic market penetration.

The ladies behind MIPEK are Patricia Mariscal, President, Irene Martinez and Carolina Flores. These ladies have a commitment to the community, using their talents in order to bring women together in promoting trade between other countries. This was my first event in learning more about import/export. So much to learn but I'm interested in finding out more so I can expand my jewelry line.

This has to be one of the most interesting conferences. (So much occurred with little time to write about it). We had an opportunity of hearing from Myriam Sanchez, (Ecuador) Representing Mundo Andino CISA Y CONMIE. She began our opening and closing of the conference. Her presences was felt in more was than one... I felt rejuvenated and the cleansing of my inner spirit.

We also had my good friend Dr. Ana Nogales , www.ananogales.com a clinical psychologist, author, nationally syndicated newspaper columnist, and media personality with a message of empowering for you!Her book, Latina Power! 7 Strengths You Already Have to Create the Success You Deserve, takes readers on a journey of self discovery to learn about inner strengths and how to build on them.

When I began my journey as an entrepreneur, at times I felt like I did not have the energy to push through all the hardships. I read Ana's book and found it very inspiring to follow my path . I really recommend this book .
