I’ve always enjoyed blogging as it has been a great outlet for me to share my hobbies and random thoughts without care. Â In the last couple of years I have made some wonderful acquaintances through blogging and have even had the opportunity to meet a few bloggers through various activities.

From a bloggers dinner to a framing workshop hosted by Larson-Juhl company in Atlanta I have had some really great times!
Next weekend, October 12, 13 & 14th, I am doing something I never thought I would, as I am attending my first blogger’s conference. Â Held at the Embassy Suites in Raleigh, NC, the Southern Blogger’s Conference is going to be a weekend filled with fun and new friendships!
And a weekend away from being Mommy!
{We need that sometimes, you know.}
And since it was my husband’s idea that I make the time to go, he knows that as well!
Â
Organized by Barb from
The Everyday Home, Amy from
Atta Girl Says, Shirley from
Housepitality Designs, Cindy from
Living on the Bliss, Brittany of
Pretty Handy Girl, Kristen of
Sophia’s Decor , and Suzy of
Worthing Court, a lot of time and prep has gone into this great weekend.  There is an activity sponsored by the Container Store (boy do I need storage ideas here!), opportunity to win prizes through a wreath, centerpiece, craft, decor & table setting contests, an antique/thrifting trip, and of course great speakers, one being Ms. Rhoda from
Southern Hospitality!
I am super excited, and yes, even a little nervous.
But, I do hope to come back with grand adventures to share!
If you want to check out this great conference it’s on Facebook, Twitter and yes, a featured blog! Â Check it out. Â This is the first year, but if it is a success, I’m sure there will be more! Â There are also a few tickets left if you can squeeze in a weekend get-away on a short notice!
As I get ready for this fun weekend, I am curious, have you forged any friendships with bloggers or participated in any blogger meet & greets? Â
How did it go for you?
