Ahhhhhh, Bloggy Boot Camp…. SO STINKIN’ FUN!!!!
But now I am paying the price! I hardly slept the night before- partially because I was so excited and anxious to go to the conference, and partially because my fun BIL & SIL are here and we’ve been staying up way too late chatting! So needless to say, after pretty much 12 hours of non-stop laughing and tons of introductions all day long, I am just zonked! I wanted to post every detail about it today, but I don’t think I am going to make it! Here is the Cliff’s Notes version, with pictures of some of my favorite ladies from the blogging world!
(And sorry for the bad-quality pictures! I was thinking “convenience” when I brought my little camera to the conference and left my bigger, nicer one at home!)
Jyl & Me (I’m in the middle of cracking up because this lady is the funniest person I know!)
The Pocket Sisters!!!! Emily and Cammie are so great! I did a giveaway for these great girls in December and it was SO FUN to meet them in real life! They are fantastic! (and so is their meal planning system- you should check it out right now!)
I love Kim!! And we totally planned to match! (Not really)
Cindy, from Skip to My Lou is amazing!
And I met a new friend who is fantastic and she lives close to me, so we will need to meet up for lunch! Kim, from TomKat Studio is as creative as they come! I love her and plan to feature her real soon!
So after a long and fun conference, I was literally walking to my car not planning to stay for the cocktail party when Jyl grabbed me and “forced me” into going to dinner with everyone. (She had to do a lot of persuading- ha!)
Dinner was fantastic, the conversations were awesome and I loved getting to know all these admirable women just a bit more.
Me and Kim… still matching.
I sat next to Kim and I have to tell you, she is probably the nicest, funniest, most “real” people I have ever met! I love this new friend of mine!
And the whole gang!
…actually, these are just the people who stayed later than everyone else! Our poor waitress was probably waiting for us to clear out of her section, but we were just having too much fun!
Marlynn, Kim, Me, Julie, Laurie, Jyl, Loralee & Lisa
Since I had such a blast, I literally came home and crashed and slept so great last night! Then I woke up this morning to the smell of a nice breakfast- French toast, bacon and sausage! Since my husband and I are going to be on vacation next week and miss Mother’s Day with my kids (bad mom, right?), they decided to celebrate today! I was served an awesome breakfast and got a gift card to get a pedicure! I love my family!
Life is good…
About Stephanie
I'm jealous – what a wonderful event!!! And Mother's Day early (my cute bike Coco arrived early, too)!!! YAY!!!
Hi Steph-
I went to Bloggy Boot Camp back in March in Baltimore. I had a great time and learned lots, plus all the great new connections I made. I am glad you had a good time, although you are like a pro at it already, you probably could have been one of the speakers.
My best-Diane
