Well I know everyone knows that I love my job and think it's the best set up in the world, but now you can actually see what I do! For those who don't know, I work for a scrapbook company from home about 20 hours a week. I make page samples for catalogs, advertisments, TV segments, basically anything they need me to make with their product. And the best part is that I get to travel about 6 times a year with them. I just got back from a trade show where we debut our new products, basically set up a little "store", and store owners come and place orders for the next 6 months. Big chains like Joanns, Micheals, Hobby Lobby, and other big box retailers place orders along with small independant scrapbook stores. It is so fun to travel with friends/co-workers and to just get a little break from day to day mommy world. I just love staying in the best hotels, eating at the best restaurants, and being around scrapbooking all day! Now that's the life!
Founder of the company, Nancy. I met Nancy 6 years ago and she gave me a job 5 years ago. She is the best, like family to me, Kev & the boys :)
The girls....in our cute aprons. We had different ones for every day. They all matched our scrapbook paper.
What I get to do all day...Everyday of the show, I do a different project for store owners to do that features our new product. In the months before the show, I do all of the page layouts for the catalog & booth, and plan the hand on projects and get everything ready for it. It really is a lot of work!
What the booth looks like, this is probably 1/5th of the whole booth. It's huge! I go early and set up and stay late and take down. We make it fun though :)
My girl, Michelle. The two of us are trouble, big time! Her husband is in US Sales and we drive him crazy when we are together :) But he is too nice to ever admit it!
It was a long 6 days of a lot of work but sooo much fun. And I can't wait for the next one in Orlando in July!

I seroiusly think you have such a cool job Erin. And I hope you took a picture of the scrapbook page you did with my pics. I'm excited to see it. :)
Wow I had no idea that you did so much with your compmany! How great that you are able to travel and get away once in a while but it usually isn't too demanding on your mommy time. Pretty sure you have a great gig going on. And, LOVE all of the aprons. That's neat to have a "family" away from your home while you travel with these fun ladies...oool cool.
