Summer finally ‘giving up the ghost’ is bittersweet, but as you read this, we are working hard getting everything put together for our annual client appreciation/anniversary celebration, SHOCKTOBERFEST! We hope you can join us, and help us support a great organization, The Mentoring Network too.
As we celebrate another year in business, we would like to share a few highlights from over the summer. It’s hard to capture it all, but here are some of my favorites.
Sometimes, the incredible work we do at Peppershock allows us to travel to some pretty amazing locations!
Recently, we were able to travel to sunny California to work on a documentary that we are producing, and because of that, we were able to make Disneyland happen! There’ve been so many canceled trips and events in the last two years, being able to spend time together as a family was so precious. As you can see, they are growing into young men, and so I cherish every moment because before you know it they will be all grown up and out of the house! We also got to visit the beach and soak up all the sunshine we could stand in preparation for another Idaho winter.
One of the things that really triggers the beginning of the next season to come is Homecoming, and I’ll tell you, watching my (not so) little oldest son get all dressed up and ready to go to homecoming, date and all is something that I always dreamed of as a mom but the pride and wistfulness I felt were more than I ever could have imagined.
And yes, he really is that much taller than all of us now!
How did Homecoming treat you and yours?
I also got to attend some events and fundraisers that are near and dear to my heart! Every year I have been able to attend the Jayden Deluca Foundation fundraiser gala in one way or another, and this year didn’t disappoint. Business and Birdies gave me the opportunity to level up my golf game, and I hope you didn’t miss the opportunity to support the Idaho Shakespeare Festival either! It’s amazing how resilient and generous our business community is, and I am proud to be a part of it all.
A lot of things may be cooling down in a lot of ways, but in more ways, they are just starting to heat up! There’s a list of a bunch of my favorite things that are coming up soon, so read on to make sure you can enjoy them with me too!
