Subject: My nomination Team Player/Nordstrom Way

My choice has some outstanding qualities in my opinion and at times does not even realize her virtues. That in itself makes her so special.

She shares her knowledge with anyone willingly. She is very organized and will not hesitate to get up from her desk to show us where it is or how it need to be done to make our office flow. She keeps Personnel wheels greased.

She has a youthful and at times innocent yet very wise way of approaching a situation. She has a Chaffey Spirit that is contagious. For such a young person, somehow she is able to to bridge the gab between young and old. Her desire to keep her Chaffey Family together is strong and honest.

When Chaffey wins, big or small, she sees it as a win for her. She takes pride and ownership in her department and how much it functions as a team. Her creative skills lend a youthful vibe to our office. She makes me laugh daily and I miss her when she is absent.

To me Stacy brings much to our department that we can all learn from. She is a true joy to be near and to work with.

Respectfully Submitted.

GAB

Bryan and Stacy to the rescue........

unfortunately I did not end up winning!!!!!! 

lots more Disneyland pics to come :) 

cuteness.....

These is a little something I put together with the help of Lindsey Light and her very cute business cards. When I first saw these business cards I had thought they were magnets but then I realized what they were and thought I am going to make them magnets. I made these for Chelsey as a hostess gift for our monthly girls game night last month. I knew they would be a great addition to her very cute office.....anyways thank you Lindsey for sparking the idea by sending me these cute business cards.....

fun stuff......

This is a gift I made for a lady at work who just became a Grandma, she will be going to see her Granddaughter for the first time in Tennessee on Saturday. I thought I would make her a little something and this is it, a photo album to fill up with lot of cute baby pictures :)

I also included a onesie and a bib that said "I Love Grandma" to top it off :) Sometimes I wish I could scrapbook and make cute gifts for people for a living :)

organization is key......

So Bryan is having a dart tournament for his Birthday on Saturday and I had to come in with some of my exceptional organizational skills!!!!! I was at IKEA the other day and I came across this hanging bucket thing and knew it would be perfect for all of the many dart accessories I have now come to know and it looks pretty cute too!!! Once he put it up he was very pleased as well....this is the life I have come to know on an almost daily basis and so I of course had to put my touch on it.....it will be fun times on Saturday - good food * good friends - thats all you need :)

blah...blah....blah....

i don't really have much to say......but I did want to show off a baby shower gift I made for a shower I am going to this weekend.....it is not the greatest picture. Anyways I love to put together gift baskets when I can....I feel like I do a pretty good job...so I thought I would share....


Bryan's little brother Daniel turned 20 on Tuesday, August 12!!! Happy Birthday!!! We had a pool party for him on Sunday.....I am always up for a swim :)

And lots more FREE samples have been coming in the mail......a coupon booklet with $31 in good coupons and some flavored Splenda samples....yummy!!! I never thought I would love to go get the mail this much......lol!!!!
