One year!!!!

It's been ONE YEAR with my new family and I could not be happier!!






I had my 1st annual review with my sales manager this week and I had the same feeling I had during my first annual review with Staff Care. And I stayed with Staff Care for 12 years.

The only way I know how to describe that feeling is calming.
I have such a peace about Officewise. It's hard work and there seems to never be enough hours in the day but that's a good thing. I meet business owners and make new friends everyday. How can that NOT be calming?? And fun?!?! This opportunity is what I've been looking for and am beyond thankful for Tommy taking a chance on me.

Just so I remember for my own sake, I added 32 new accounts, increased sales 85% and GP% 6.99% over the last six months compared to my first 6 months, and was accepted into The Leadership Lubbock program.

Here's to many more years with an incredible organization!!!!

Cheers,
Lin

Things that make me happy

Tess's teacher should pick up a photography hobby on the side!!!






Just another day at the lunch table ....




Crazy hair day at school







TTU Opening Day. Sissy came to see meeeee!!!!!!!




The.Best.Garlic.Bread.Ever. It stays with you for 9 days but who cares right??? ;)

Our dear friend, Tami, and her 4.5 year old daughter Carter came to LBB as well for a little girls weekend and we cooked dinner over here Friday night. Team Cooper came over and the kids played extremely well together!!




Saturday it was 86. Needless to say, mine, and these little munchkins' hearts, we're happy. Thanks for letting us raid your backyard Lou!!


















Dinner at our fav, The West Table. Such an amazing weekend girls. I'm still in mourning it's over :(




Brian's Plainview office, West Texas Dental Associates, opened on Monday of this week and all went great!! I'm so so proud of him!! Senee Foster is our hygienist/Office Manager and she's amazing!!!! We're so lucky to have a Lockney/Plainview-ite on board to help us grow and flourish!! She's such a doll, full of personality, and beyond sweet! She had a full load of patients on Monday and still wants to go back to work so that's a good sign!! Ha!! That's her fiancé, Asa, and they're to be married in August.





Here are some pictures of the office. The practice information is below. Help us get that phone to ring!!!





Waiting room. That blank wall will have a glass sign of our logo hanging.











































We have a break room also but it was in no shape for a photo last Sunday afternoon. It's our catch all room and a total mess!!! One day... ;o)

A HUGE Thanks to Brian's business partner, Andy, Senee, and Brian'a staff here in Lubbock for making all this possible. He's only working a couple days a week in Plainview as his LBB office has and always will be his full time job but the need for dentistry is so great in Plainview that he wanted to go ahead and open there. He's so passionate about helping others that I could burst with pride. He will eventually hire a FT dentist to live in Plainview and run this office but for now Brian will work to build it up and accommodate the patients we have now. We are very excited and look forward to the future of WTDA!

Lin

The Little Mermaid

Cameron's love for Ariel became a reality last Sunday afternoon with her Mamy. She sure was concerned how everyone in the auditorium was going to be 'under the sea' the whole time and be able to breathe. Oh, the wonders of a 4.5 year old little mind. ;)

Best.Christmas.Present.Ever!!!!! Thanks Mamy!!



















Also, another reality moment, which was more a 'reality-check' moment, was I learned I am NOT a Pinterest Mom; however, Cam hasn't stopped talking about her robots since snd that makes it ALL worth it!!! She had a big time at her Valentines Party at school and sure loves her friends a BOT!













One last 'real' moment that I continue to have to pinch myself over is the fact that these two angels are MINE!!! God's greatest gifts. Hands down.





Cheers,
Lin

A way-overdue weekend wrap-up

Thursday evening, February 4th, was the start to a perfect weekend. Andrea, Mandie, and I met up in the big D for some much needed R&R and it was remarkable. We rented a 3/2 condo off the Toll and Wycliff that was so cute and in the best location to everything we wanted to do. We are, drank, shopped, and laughed so hard we cried. These weekends we have twice a year are what make me smile and appreciate my girlfriends more than anything. Kayla joined us and was the icing on the cake. Until October, besties!!!


























Meanwhile, back at the ranch, daddy was holding down the fort like a boss with trips including, but not limited to, the park, Costco, grocery story, and .... Wait for it...

The dollar store. He just racked up major points with that one considering he won't step foot in that place. Ever. AND--he did their hair!!! Husband and Daddy of the year!!!!!






Cheers,
Lin
