A Local Blogger Meet Up

One of the reasons I have always loved blogging is other bloggers. Through blogging, I have "met" so many wonderful people in many areas of the world. Last week I had my first opportunity to meet other local bloggers in real life. We all met up for dinner at Brick Oven for good food, wonderful sponsors and great conversation.
Lindsay of Southern Lovely and Becca of From Gardeners 2 Bergers were amazing enough to pull this event together. It was the perfect size, we all got the chance to meet and talk to each other before the night was over. It was so much fun, I would love to do this again soon!

The hosts

We had the most incredible sponsors for the evening. Gingersnap Crafts provided these AMAZINGLY cute chalkboard labels. I am going to use these to redo my pantry. So excited! They are perfect!
MyVinylDirect.com gave us each some vinyl to try. Have you seen their selection? Fantastic! I love that they have all of the different sizes. I want some in every color!
Sexy Modest Boutique is full of amazingly cute items. I have plans to hit up this store next weekend.
These cake bites from Sweet Tooth Fairy for dessert were probably the most delicious thing I have ever put in my mouth. I want to buy a box and hide it all for myself. :)
I was also super lucky to win the door prize of these DARLING frames from Cut It Out. I love the frames so much I have decided I need new family photos to be as cute as the frames. 
All in all it was a wonderful night. I can't believe it took me so long to meet up with other bloggers.

Oh, what fun! We had a meetup of the Michigan Lady Food Bloggers a couple of years ago, and I see one or two occasionally; but it's not the same as having everyone together. Gotta do that again sometime!

I was a little nervous going into it, but everyone was so nice, I had a great time! And those coconut Sweet Tooth Fairy cake bites were to die for! Hope to see you around again soon.

I am jealous. I wish I lived in a bigger area and could connect more with other bloggers. How fun.

It was a great meet up! I LOVED that it was small enough that we could all chat and really get to know each other! I hope you've found a new place and are adjusting to your rushed move!

Becca said...

It was awesome to meet you! I am with you- it turned out to be the perfect sized event, that way we could all really meet!
I hope you guys get settled into life here in UT quickly!
Thanks so much for taking the time to come out and meet us!
I've been on vacation- but I just got the chance to subscribe, and look forward to keeping in touch!
