Today I celebrate my 26th stamp-a-versary with SU! Little did I know back then, what a big part SU would play in my life. I joined because I fell in love with the product. I still love the product, but even more I love the friendships, professional growth, and the travel. A new catalog still brings me excitement. I love the joy of giving a card and making someone’s day a little brighter!
Back in the early days, each convention had a theme. This one was something about fairy tales and dreams coming true. 🙂

One of my greatest memories with SU, was serving on the Advisory Board 1999 – 2000. It was a wonderful honor to work as a liaison between the company and the base of demonstrators.

SU conventions and events never disappoint! They are always so much fun! I would love to have this as my Halloween costume. 🙂 Paul also had the opportunity to attend many events with me.

Ahh…it seems just like yesterday! This was our family Christmas card picture in the year 2000.
It said, “You can never be too rich, too thin or have too many rubber stamps!”

This was taken during a Founder’s Circle trip about ten years ago. I love the SU trucks that cart product from our manufacturing center in Kanab, UT, up to our shipping center in Riverton, UT.
