Recap: Texas Bloggers first DFW Bloggers' Meet Up!

Tweet

On Saturday, September 08th, Julie from A Beautiful Day, Taylor from Goings On in Texas, and I hosted the first ever Texas Bloggers DFW Meet Up at A Piece of Work in Fort Worth!

The hostesses of the night

The eventful night was filled with goodies to munch on...

 

Wine to be enjoyed...

... 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! :-)

Oh, and PS, just so it's out there as photographic proof that I DID paint something in my life, here's me with my attempted painting from the evening's workshop... I think I'll stick to my art skills on cupcakes! haha ;-)

Guest Bloggin' for Insanity Rules

I'm plantin' my boots in different soil today, y'all!

One thing I love about the Texas blogging community is the generosity and communication I get to share with these lovely ladies living in the same state as myself. They're seriously amazing!

Today, Emily from Insanity Rules allowed me the huge honor of guest blogging on her site!

XOXO,

Texas bloggers, get your "Paint & Wine" on!

Julie at A Beautiful Day, Taylor at Goings On in Texas, and myself invite you to join us for a fantastic evening filled with wine, art, and much-needed girl time with your fellow Texas Bloggers! (If you're not already a member of the Texas Bloggers group on Facebook, Head over here and get to know us today!)

I am SO excited for this upcoming event! On Saturday, September 8th those who register and attend will be treated to wine, appetizers, and a fun art class. While I'm no artist myself, I've been told that these art classes are fool proof! The added bonus of being able to keep the artwork you create on the given canvas serves for perfect bragging rights is too good to pass up!
