Events: March KC Blogger Meetup

I'm kind of a blog-o-holic (in case you didn't know, find out more here).  I love reading them, and I love writing them.  As much as magazines, books, and everyday life, blogs are so inspiring to me.  That's why I decided, along with my friend Jeanee, to start the KC Blogger Meetup.  It's a community for bloggers, where we can all hang out in real life, learn, and grow our blogs.  We meet every month, and our group is one year old.  Hooray!  

Last week we had our March 2013 meetup, hosted by Tulip boutique on the Country Club Plaza.  The event was coordinated by Kara and Melina of Edit.  They had a Derby Day theme, with some amazing hats for sale, and all proceeds went to benefit The Mission Project, a great organization that helps adults with down-syndrome and autism, lead full lives on their own.  We had a great turn-out, and I had lots of fun hanging out with some of my favorite blogging ladies.

A big thank you to all the ladies that attended including Julie, Erin, Jamie, Ngan, Charity, Lisa, Sarah, Kathryn, Melanie, Lindsay, and of course to Kara, Melina, and Tulips for organzing the event!

My So Called Life: KC Blogger Meetup

In January my friend Jeanee (from Dirty Laundry) came to me with the idea to do a KC Blogger Meetup.  We'd both attended meet ups before, and I know that I really enjoy getting to know new blogging ladies.  I made some fun KC cookies and cupcakes with pink icing.  It was such a fun night, and I can't wait til we can put the next event together.  Pop on over to the KC Blogger Meetup site to see even more pictures, and if you'd like to join us for our next event please visit the site for more info.    

Leopard was obviously the hot shoe of the evening.
