Michigan Blogger Meet Up!!!

OMG!! I had so much fun!! I got back a few hours ago from Lansing and I am so excited I made the trip! I got to meet 8 other wonderfully talented ladies who love teaching as much as I do!!  Let me introduce you to my new BBFs (bloggy best friends)..

Lisa and Beth from Made in the Shade in Second Grade - OMG, these girls are amazing!  They are so funny!! 

Amy from The Resource(ful) Room - the organized one!  She set this all up and has the most organized center stuff EVER (im obsessed with it)

Kara from Spedventures - Kara teaches in a similar program to me, so we had lots to talk about! We even went to Target after Applebees, Ill share all my goods tomorrow!

Christina from Mrs. Bainbridge's Class - the famous one, LOL. Christina in super nice and super funny!

Jessica from Apples and Papers - she lives about a bazillion hours away and Im so happy she made the trip!

Holly from Crisscross Applesauce in First Grade - Holly is just as hilarious and sweet as you think she is from reading her blog!

Andrea from Stepping Into First Grade - Andrea brought a notebook! I love that!  Super sweet new bloggy friend!

If you don't read any of those blogs, you must! We spent THREE hours in Applebees! The poor waiter was probably like, umm are they ever leaving? LOL.   We talked about teaching horror stories, teaching in general, technology, books, blogging and so much more!  What a great group! We could have sat even longer and we are definitely going to get together again!

I snapped a few photos with the iPhone...
