| The hostesses of the night |
... and paintings to be drawn!
I thoroughly enjoyed chatting with and getting to know my fellow DFW Blogging gals. We truly are a little blogging community. Every woman I talked to that night was so kind, gracious, funny, and downright sweet! We may be online blogging pals, but rest assured my friendships with these ladies were truly affirmed that night. It's funny how bonds can be made through a little computer screen, isn't it?
I had the pleasure of meeting the following ladies that evening:
Julie at A Beautiful Day
Taylor at Goings On in Texas
Nicole at Three31
April at Red Dirt Mama
Becky at The Java Mama
Crystal at Mason's Mama
Amanda at Princess of the Panhandle
Jill at Nokoikonomia
Holli at Holli's Hoots and Hollers
Kristen at Few of My Favorite Things
Lauren at The Crazy Life of LT
Samm at Little House in the Big D
Cynthia at Oh So Pinteresting
After a fun-filled night of blog talk, story swaps, painting, and wine, we all finally said our goodbyes and went our separate ways for the night... BUT, not before grabbing our take-home souvenir! Julie did a beautiful job decorating the keepsake boxes that held the homemade cupcakes I made for the event:
All in all, it was a fantastic time, and I can't wait for the next one! Thank you ladies for making this past weekend one to definitely remember! :-)
Yours seriously turned out amazing! Looks great! I showed mine to my husband when I got home and he just looked at it, then me, and said "well, you're really good at other things".... yep, let's hope so... lol
ReplyDeleteGreat meeting you!
-Samm @ Little House in the Big D
Aw, thanks girl! Haha well your blog is a true statement that you ARE good at other things! Who needs a silly canvas, anyways! ;-)
DeleteGreat post, Sarah! You are truly a sweetheart and I was thrilled to meet you. Your painting is great, but not quite as awesome as those cupcakes....thank you for the taking on that task - I would have gone to the bakery and your hardwork made them that much more special! Once I get my post up it is going to be prety anticlimatic as I am bringing up the rear (as usual), but it will happen!
ReplyDeleteYou are SO welcome! I enjoyed meeting you so much, as well! Keep truckin'... late or not, I love reading your posts!
DeleteI had so much fun Saturday and it was so great to meet everyone! xoxo!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you had a great time, Lauren! Thanks for coming, and thank you for stopping by my page! :-)
