So-Chic Boutique

My first Boutique was mostly a huge success! I was excited to do it and happy Samantha talked to me about it, but then I got all nervous that being no-one would mean I'd sell no books... so I made 8 of my Wyoming flag signs that I love and others seem to love... so I killed myself for a week and half to do my school work, home stuff AND make the flags. Not one flag sold!!! But I should have had more faith in myself and my books, because my books were a great success. It was a good experience! Glad I did it. And very glad Sam was sitting right next to me selling her make up so I was never lonely. :)

Deli book signing

My sister's friends own my favorite place to eat in Evanston- Main Street Deli. YUM! Becky set up a book signing for me there. It went so well--and mostly due to my sister. It's such a testament to how many people know and love Becky. The majority came because of her! But we've gotten some good feed back of the book afterwards. :) It was a really fun signing. I loved spending the day with my sister and selling books is a bonus!

Rip's Book Signing

I am so thankful for supportive family and friends. Becky and Dad came to my Rip's signing. Beck stayed and helped and I sold twice as many books with her telling her friends and people that came in about them.

Love this sweet friend of mine. She's always so kind and so supportive.

One of my families oldest friends, Carol Holmes. She's such a sweet gal and I have so many fond memories growing up of her.

KA Book Launch

Becky and Heidi came to help me with my book launch again this year. And I'm so grateful. I just put them right to work and they are so sweet and so happy to do it. And it makes it so much better. So glad I'm not alone in this!

Kristol, I met her at a book club I spoke at. It was so fun to have her come!

My kids were so cute. The little boys and Syd had bookmarks and they were passing them out to people outside asking: You wanna buy a book?

Our sweet Kari. She's been through more than a couple battles with cancer and this time the battle isn't going to be beaten. But she's won. She is amazing. So loving and so positive and so beautiful. I'm so thankful she worked with Tim and Syd for speech and that I get to call her my friend.

Crystal. This sweet lady I didn't really know and then I met her a year ago when she was taking Hazel's 1 year pics. Her husband is currently the high councilman over primary. And she is so kind and really truly a fan of my work!

The Phillips family have come to both of my book signings. So kind of them. This year, I signed the book for their daughter Lia whose full name is Amelia. :)

A couple gals that I work with through stake primary came. :)

My dear friend Stacey!

My Hisers and my Cutlers both came. Kim had already bought 2 books--the first Amazon sale again! Love them!

Serendipity book signing

What a fun book signing! It started out so slow, but then old friends... friends I haven't seen in years!!! came in and it was so much fun!

Heidi and Jolene Parker!!
It was so fun to see Heidi and to meet her kids. She was so sweet, she got all teared up and told me how proud she was of me. 

My old friend from High School, Natalie Smith.

A couple of Becky's friends came and then a couple of strangers. One of them said to me, "I've never had an author sign a book before!!" She was all excited and the funny thing is, it's just as if not more exciting for me!! I'm thinking--some lady who doesn't know me wants my autograph?! 

Rips & Evanston Library Signing

It was so fun to go home to Evanston for a couple of book signings. My in-laws offered up their store for one and it was a great success! They have so many people who love them, people they have served over the years--and I definitely benefited! They supported them by supporting me. It was awesome. Lots of love! And a few good friends came too!
Kristi was there to help me as well which I was so grateful for!

I love this Gina girl! She has always been such a great support! She bought 5 books from Amazon!!! And had her book club read it!

Friday I was at Rip's, but Saturday I went to the library. My old friend Liberty Prophet was there! It was awesome to see her! It had been forever!
