Y’all know I love me a good blate. Meeting other bloggers makes me SO happy (especially if I’ve been reading their blogs for a while!)
I’ve really been trying to “get out there” and meet bloggers, especially with Blissdom coming up. I feel like smaller blogger meet ups and blates are the best way to really test the waters before a huge blog conference. So when Jenn sent the word out that she wanted to have an Austin meet up, I couldn’t help but say yes. AND- I’m SO glad I did!
There’s not too much to say about it (other than the fact that all the ladies were absolutely awesome!). So without further ado…
I pretty much got more ready for this blogger meet up than I have for most date nights with Mathew lately. Oops!
When Mathew isn’t around, I totally do the “signature pose” with Sar!
I got to meet Kristen from The Mrs. and the Momma! I’ve read her blog for a while so I was excited!
Met Savanah from Savanah Smiles! I have read her blog for a while too so I was so happy. I wish we could’ve talked more!
Shanna from Shanna Said so was a sweetheart! P.S.- random but I feel very T-Swizzle in this pic. I think it’s the waves.
Emily, Me, Jenn, and Sarah at Doc’s on Congress!
Jen, me, and Sar. Jen’s a photographer and I really wish I’d gotten to talk to her more too. (Sar was being a hog with her lol)
Jenn and I at the meet up. Aren’t we cute in our coordinating flowy tops?
You know you have a good friend in someone when you ask them to crop your butt from a pic and they do! Anyway, here’s our side of the table: me, Kristen, Savanah, Shanna, Emily, Jenn, Sarah, and Allison.
The ENTIRE group! There were so many of us!
After a delicious lunch at Doc’s on South Congress, we decided to walk down to Hey- Cupcake. Sadly, several bloggers had to leave, so it was just 6 of us that went to get cuppies.
First of all, I know the whole saying for Waco is “Keep Waco, Wacko” but let me tell you, there is NOTHING “wacko” about Waco. There IS, however, something WEIRD about Austin, hence their “Keep Austin Weird” catchphrase. Um, I love Austin, but that’s not something to be proud of haha. During our walk down to Hey- Cupcake I had not ever seen so many crazies or “crunchies” in one place in my life (…and I’ve been to NYC y’all!) It was like being in a Twilight zone. Sar even got pictures of some weirdo dudes performing some witchcraft that they were filming. BIZARRE!
Anyway, I digress…

My Sweetberry cupcake from Hey Cupcake! Best cupcake EVER

When Sar tells you to take a huge bite of your cupcake for a picture, you don’t think- you just do it!
Emily, Savanah, Jenn, me, Sar, and Sarah at the I love you so much wall on Congress. I love bloggers!
Last picture of the day! My new IRL friend, Jenn and I before we all said goodbye! Thanks Sar for taking such a good pic (as usual)
