Where’s Mom? (32 of 52)

May 5, 2010

What a weekend!

Friday night, I met up with some awesome bloggers for dinner at the Yardhouse in Phoenix.

Saturday, I spent the day with 100 amazing ladies (and a couple of men) learning about SEO, plugins, branding, and vlogging.

Saturday night I was lucky enough to hang out poolside with some amazing bloggers…

…and watch this bartender make me an amazing margarita using a plastic cups as a shaker (he was waiting on the “real” shaker):

(After I complimented him on his technique, his partner told me to get behind the bar for a picture)

It was quite a sight… he took great pride in that drink!

On Sunday I finally got to my first Bath Junkie:

Where I promptly made 3 husbands very angry by introducing their wives to the store.

(Sorry, guys)

It was a great weekend filled with girl talk, late nights, and lots of smiles :)

Girlfriend, I am so in love with that store. SO in love. And so very glad you tweeted me and asked if I wanted to crash in your room on friday night. Yay for new friends!

OK- enough of the bartender stuff. You also have pics of a trip with Steve that the poor guy (bartender) is kneeling behind the bar drinking shots with you (kneeling and hiding from his boss) I might add so he doesn’t get fired. This is getting to be a little much. Then you get your own MOTHER to drink Chocolate Cake Shots and Oatmeal Cookie Shots. What kind of person did I raise?

An awesome, fun, kind, willing to share and can’t say no – kind of person! (In my opinion)

Looks so fun!!

Wordpress told me my comment was too short. Which sorta ticks me off, but I think I’ll get over it.

It was a super fun weekend! I’ll have to remember not to stress out before hand next time. (I promise not to stress before the photo walk!)

PS – did you design your blog or do you know someone?

Looks like you had a blast. I haven’t ever heard of Bath Junkie before you mentioned it. Sounds great though. I also loved the pictures of the boys.

The Jack stories make me laugh out loud. :)

I’ve loved hearing about everyone’s experiences in Phoenix. Great pictures. We have a Bath Junkie in our city and I’ve never been. I guess I must! Happy Mother’s Day!
