A day at Blog Camp

At noon we were amongst a throng of people. Here we found craft booths (some of it to irresistable to not buy immediately) and good food and great company.



By 3 pm these two had managed "the pose". Notice how their pinky fingers are even identically seperated from the other fingers. This wasn't planned but actually just how they were shooting!



At 6 we were hanging out with rxBambi's mom and enjoying some chilled beverages to cool down a bit and enjoy the pretty view which I forgot to take a picture of (gasp!).



At 9 we were just wrapping up dinner and drinks.



We very much missed AnOpenHeart today and are very glad she'll be joining us again tomorrow! And we also love our new friend Schmecky, also known as Zena (or maybe Gretchen if you're a RWP) who also can totally rock a tiara.

Prezzies.... That's What I'm Talkin 'Bout


Ooooohh... Aaaahhhh... You know how we all love the prezzies. But lets back up...

The party was in full force Friday night when Ali finally made it in after a days worth of traveling. Seriously, four plane flights. She's a little nutty:

I have to admit I was a little worried when I first walked up to this blond woman and stood in front of her shooting pictures. It wasn't until she started laughing that I realized I had the right person! Luckily I didn't get shot. Or forked.


After introductions were made and hugs were passed out we headed out to Olive Garden for a late dinner. Then, on to Sara's for the Official Opening of Prezzies...

Sara gave us fabulous bracelets that she made out of Dutch coins... so we could feel a connection to Blog Campers in Denmark.

Then Shannon gave us moleskin books in which to keep our deepest darkest secrets, or blogging ideas. She also made us necklaces with the Blog Camp logo (and sent some to Denmark too! She's so cool). Check out her site, there's a wonderful picture of us with our necklaces on.

Next came Ali and her bundle of gifts... Notecards, chocolate, and a t-shirt from ...(wait for it)... Thomasville, Georgia!
 
Then came the gifts from yours truly, something that every Blog Camper needs: a tiara and ax repellent.
                                      
The following day we lost a blogger (Shannon had to go home), but we also gained a blogger: Zena aka Schmecky. Yep, no piranha face this morning... Go check out her blog and give her some validation!

Learning stuff....


I think I had too many glasses of wine and RxBambi's looking all weird!!!!! However I am learning neat stuff I didn't know before!

Death by... Fork?



We are all here and having a fabulous time! Of course, there was this one moment when we were a little unsure how it would go...

On My Wayyyyy


OK I have made it to the airport in record time and I'm at the gate waiting to board the first of two flights today. Not too shabby! Of course they opened my case and searched it for axes and guess what? He questioned the ml-age of my toothpaste ....see my post a few days ago on Inner Ramblings... can't be bothered to link while I sit here.

I would love to take some sneak pics but I am shy!!!! hahahahaa... I know you find that hard to believe. Just take my word for it there are some freeeaaakksss here in Orlando!!!! It's hot as hell here too, who in the heck designed this place? We're in the middle of FLORIDA and there are dome shaped WINDOWS everywhere creating a greenhouse effect!!!!! I'm not a 'mater although I'm gonna look like one soon.

So dearests.... stay tuned and I'll see you on the other side, of the freakin' country that is.
