Just Keep Swinging
“Never allow the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game!” – Babe Ruth Life, in many ways, is like a game of softball. Sometimes life throws you the unexpected curve balls, sometimes you get the fastballs that you can barely see coming, and occasionally you’ll get the perfect pitch.

The Tale of The Sexy Sax Man
The first time I was introduced to the Sexy Sax Man was in Tenerife. I was lucky enough to be spending three weeks on that glorious piece of the earth. It was my second summer with the company. It was only my second time crossing the sea. Each year we travel to a beautiful destination and spend three weeks orchestrating the judging for our main award show.

So for three weeks each summer I move into a beautiful resort, work incredibly hard, and make the some of the most wonderful memories life has to offer.

It’s important that you take a moment each day to pause and be thankful for your blessings. My blessings have been plentiful. In the past year I’ve traveled to San Francisco, Napa Valley, Vermont, Connecticut, Boston, Philadelphia, and Bali all for the first time. I’ve also revisited the lands that raised me: Cincinnati, Kentucky and Savannah. I’ve come to know more of the world, and in doing so, I’ve come to know more of myself. Counting Your Blessings ♥ I am a strong, confident,…
