Great Weekend!

The Farm Chicks Show

 

It was absolutely fabulous! We went for our second year and walked away so pleased! It is just the best. We both found some great finds. ( we will go over those next time.) But I think the best part was the people. No joke when I say everyone is so nice.

 

 

We stood in line with the sweetest ladies. The group in front of us was a hoot! The gals behind us were just wonderful to visit with.

 

We participated in the Blog Badge idea that Kim @ Camp Whimsy came up with. Each of us bloggers would wear a badge with our blog name on it. So we could put a face with the blog. Brilliant! It was such a great way to meet other bloggers. And it drew attention to our blog.  Thank you Kim!

 

Funny thing is we ran into several bloggers but not Kim!  She came up with the idea and we didn’t even get to meet her. Maybe next time!

 

Here is who we were lucky enough to meet!

 

We ran into Timi of A Girl Named Timi & her great friend Laura of WSU Laura. They were so funny! Timi cracks me up. I have never met Laura before, OHhhh she is equally as funny. The two of them together. Watch Out!

 

I need to give a shout out to Timi. She is after all a big reason we are bloggers! We met her at last years show. She gave me her card and I loved her blog so well, I guess I wanted to copy her!

Angie had  suggested we blog for quite awhile, but I wasn’t sold on the idea. Then after last years show I started nosing around blogs. I fell in love! Angie was right, she told me we would love it!

 

We also met Lisa form A Thing For Roses ~ She is just precious. So sweet, and a gorgeous booth!

 

We  ran into Laurie form Magpie Ethel. She is gorgeous and so kind. She was shopping with her sweet mother. They were having a blast.

 

Elaine from Tinker Verve had a great booth. She spent some of her time visiting with us.

 

Auntie Joy was there with her great booth. She welcomed us so sweetly into the bloggy world.

 

Arlene from Heart rocks Home. She had the best bags! UH, I had to have one. She was so sweet! She told me she loved my laugh! That made my day.

 

I know we met some more but I can’t remember their names. Please forgive me. ( you all know I am raising teenagers) I shall say no more!

 

I’m sorry this is so long. The whole point is the ladies are so sweet, and welcoming! It was a pleasure to get to meet and visit with all of them.

By the way... We heard there were a couple gals that came from Georgia!  We met two gals that came from Florida!!!!!!!

Farm Chicks here we come!!!!!!!!!!
This is the weekend Angie and I have been waiting for!

Farm Chicks!

We are heading north to Spokane this weekend for the most fab show ever. We went last year and had the best time. So many great vendors and the people... Crowds of people, but the amazing thing is I don't remember one single crabby person. Everyone is so nice.  Its like a big party!

Kim at Camp Whimsy came up with the brilliant idea to make blog badges, so we could pick each other out. Even though Angie and I are pretty new to the bloggy world we thought why not. After seeing what an awesome job Timi did we just had to.

SOOOOOOOOOO..... Here are our blog badges...

Angie's is the brown & pink and mine is the all brown. Some may say that her's is pink because she is way sweet & mine is all brown because I'm full of sh.... Never mind,its not true. No matter what our husbands say! The lie!!!!

Hope you see you there. It is so worth it!
