Good Morning everyone! It's been a few days since I got home from CHA in Florida but I needed a few days to unwind, get back to work and spend a little time with Hannah. I've been off the past two days and that's been great also!
Well, were should I start? ... THE TRIP WAS AWESOME!!
I flew in Monday night and met Cindy at the Airport. We got to the hotel a little late, dropped our bags and went to Bahama Breeze for dinner. It was really good! And the drinks even better!
The next day we woke up early and headed to the convention center. It was so fun! We met up with a ton of girls we knew and had lunch with the CK contributors. ... I missed this group shot :(
Kimber and Summer. I just LOVE these girls! They are 2007 Hall Of Famers with me and I think we will always have that special bond. Good girls I tell ya!
Miss Kelly Purkey and Susan Weinroth. I met Kelly for the first time in June when we went to Buffalo for CKC. She was teaching there for CK. For some reason she wasn't that impressed with Buffalo. hmmmm not that it's dreary or anything. hahaha And Susan...what a sweet girl!
Gail Pierce-Watne from Making Memories. What can I say about Gail other than that she is INCREDIBLE!!! She is "the" nicest person ever! I have the opportunity of working with her and I could not ask for a better person. It was great to finally meet her! Thank you Gail for EVERYTHING! I also was able to met Jenny and Tara but didn't get pictures with them. GREAT, GREAT girls!!!
That night we went to dinner at Fudd Ruckers with the Studio Calico girls. What a cool group of people! I finally got to meet Tina Cockburn. I have been a fan of her's for years! Talented girl there! And those children...they are just the cutest things ever. (I missed this shot too! hahaha)
The Next day, we head back to the show and really just hung out and took our time visiting with everyone and looking at all the cool new stuff. We said talked to Jennifer McGuire and I met Renee Foss for the first time (LOVE this girl and it's crazy that she only lives in Pittsburgh! I can see a road trip happening REAL SOON!) I met Jenni Bowlin for the first time and a Nikki Sivils. She had a booth with some new stuff out. Cool stuff Girls!
That last night in Florida we met up with Jennifer Lawrence, Vee and Morgan and went to Tu Tu Tango for dinner. If you are in Orlando and DO NOT go eat at this place you have totally missed out. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!! The entertainment was so cool and the food was delicious!
It was great to finally met Jennifer for the first time in person. We have talked online for a while now and she is just as amazing in person as online. Thanks Jen for the ride! Can't wait to see you again!
***As you can tell, I am stealing the photos from Cindy. I brought my little camera with me and they were just not turning out as nice as I would of liked them. Thanks girl! ***
We all tore UP the photo booth outside for like and hour after dinner.
Afterwards, we went over to Howl At the Moon to meet up with Linda Harrison, Kelly Noel and Amy Licht. Kelly Purkey, Susan Weinroth, Tina Cockburn left early and missed out on the most HILARIOUS night ever!
