Going to Meet Some Women I Met Online

That's what I told my husband as I headed out the door on Saturday night.   Oh, and that most of them I actually had never even chatted with online!  

I've been following Kellie at La Vida Dulce for some time now and was just very excited when she put this little dinner party together!    She is even more lovely than she is online - absolutely real and beautiful!


 Me, Kellie

Even though, I felt a little out of my league, I also had a sense of camaraderie with these women I had yet to meet.    Basically, I was heading to dinner with Blog Rock Stars!  I might be more like a blog folk singer, if anything.  I started to blog for my family and as a hobby.  I'm not really a great writer.  I'm not sure that I am witty and charming to anyone but those who really know me.  I just put what is in my head out there for the world to see!  Or at least a very small corner of the world.


Kellie (La Vida Dulce), June (Bye Bye Pie), Susan (Carpool Queen)

Turns out, they do the same thing.   They were all so warm, gracious and FUNNY!  Oh my, did we laugh.   Mostly because June is just spilling over with wit, charm and funny stories.  I am endeared to her forever.  Can you be endeared to someone?  Or do you just find someone endearing?  Now, I'm all worried about my grammar when obviously, I don't worry about that any other time!  Oh well, I like her a lot for a long time, how about that?     It was such an honor to be among the real life women behind the blogs that I've followed for a long time like Kellie and June.   I recently started reading Carpool Queen and New Every Morning and just can't wait get to know the other women through their blogs, too.

We dined on amazing food and stayed until we could laugh no more, talking all the way out the door.





Imagine that?!?  Bloggers talking all the way out the door!

I kept meaning to tell you that I loved the top you were wearing- Very chi-chi -

So nice to finally put a face together with a name -

I was so glad that you and I were finally able to meet!

I love how we all thought that the other was a "bigger" blogger than the other. Funny how our minds can do funny things!

Can't wait to do this again!

That sounds like so much fun! I have been daydreaming about finally meeting up with some fellow bloggers lately. It sure would be nice to meet the people I read so much.

That looks like a great time! It is wonderful when bloggers can get together.
