Here's what the Teal Pumpkin Project is all about :-)

teal pumpkin2
Have you heard of the Teal Pumpkin Project? It’s a simple way to make trick-or-treating safer and more inclusive for the 1 in 13 children living with food allergies, and many others impacted by intolerances and other conditions. 

I absolutely LOVE this project idea! All you have to do is place a teal pumpkin on your doorstep that signals that, in addition to candy, you offer non-food trinkets and treats that are safe for all trick or treaters.

Hello Mr. Sam Houston! (Guys, have you ever stopped at this statue?)

If you head north on Interstate 45 (from The Woodlands) for about half an hour, you’ll eventually get to the all-white Sam Houston Statue that you’ve probably passed countless times before. Mr. Houston seems to appear out of nowhere, a ghostly, thought-provoking vision that I've grown to really look forward to approaching.  After admiring the statue from the highway year after year on our trips to Dallas and beyond, we finally decided to stop and have a closer look. It was worth it!

My life:

My roots are from Louisiana, which I still call home! After an extensive 13 year career at Chick-fil- A (you may remember me from events around the Woodlands) in Sales and Marketing I transitioned to Stitch Fix where I have been currently employed for the past 4 years. When I am not working, you will find me enjoying family, food and fun -- plus traveling when I am able. That's why my health is so important to me and I started my path with Plexus - to be my best self to my husband and son! Low energy, weight gain and lack of sleep were keeping me from being as present as I wanted to be; but after a few short months, I am back in it, living my life to the fullest!

How can our readers find you?


Facebook is the only platform I am on. CLICK here to find my profile. I'd love to be friends and to send you a free Plexus sample!
