GIANT THANK YOU to everyone who wasted away with us in Margaritaville. We had a rockstar conference committee that made sure every detail was taken care of. We owe our good times to them....and the hospitality rooms. LOL! We had great speakers, good food, LOTS of fun, and SO MANY DIAPERS. Over 16,000 diapers were provided to BE A Resource https://bearesourcehouston.org. They played a mad skills game of Tetris to get the diapers in their van. They are so thankful! They have some great volunteer opportunities. Check out their website. 
 
Special thanks to Maria Cortez-Ochoa, our D5890 Photographer, for once again doing a remarkable job capturing all the special moments throughout our convention.  Maria has posted them on these Facebook pages:
