Launch Party!

I had my very first launch party today!!!  It was such an amazing afternoon with friends and loved ones.  I could not believe the love & support I received from everyone including those I have never met before...which included the amazing Amme Weilert who is the Executive National Vice President of our nation!!!  I was so blessed to have Erin and her there and I could not have asked for more!
The amazing Erin T. Ferrell & Amme Weilert!
I am not going to lie...I was a stress case the day of and even the day before my launch party.  I am naturally a worry wort and stress myself out in the most unnecessary situations (heck I had an ulcer Junior year of high school!).  Needless to say I am thankful for having my level headed fiances to calm me down. I am not an entertainer like my sisters and mom, I would prefer to just go to someone else's party.  I probably called my sister Allison a million times the days following up to it!  But in the end I realized that the launch party is meant to bring people together to try out an amazing product and be introduced to an amazing opportunity...it is meant to be simple and lovely AND be duplicatable by anyone who comes.  Speaking of duplicatable...I need to send out my jalapeno popper dip recipe to about 10 people!!!
Needless to say the party was set up simply with time to spare and I am so grateful to the wonderful ladies who allowed me to host the party at their home!  It is wonderful, all the people who are open to helping me on this journey!
Some of the hor'dourves: homemade cookies, jalapeno popper dip, veggie tray, chicken salad croissant sandwiches.   We also had mimosas, water & iced tea.
The launch started at 2:00 PM with a meet & greet as well as hor'dourves time!  I also gave everyone an experience with the Arbonne Aromassentials Awaken Sea Salt Scrub.  This stuff is phenomenal, it has lemon for vitality and coriander for happiness, key ingredients are avocado and sweet almond extract.
Giving Morgan's arm a taste of the Aromassentials Sea Salt Scrub...he loves it!
About 2:30 or so we moved into the living room where Erin, Amme and myself shared our stories and shared Arbonnes story and the opportunity.  I had to start the show with how I became involved in this amazing company as well as my "Why" for doing so.  I did get a little choked up especially because it involves my wonderful fiance and he was just 10 feet from me.  Well ok, a little means I had to let Erin take over until I got myself together!  So darn emotional...but at least I know my "Why" is worth it!!!
I can't tell you how pumped I feel after such an incredible day!  A huge thank you to all who came, the ladies who allowed me to have it in their home, my sister for helping me in every way to get the party set up and then some, Amme & Erin for complete inspiration, and my love Morgan for motivating & encouraging me to take on this journey!!!
