Last year's blog gathering was such a success that we are going to do it again this year!
Saturday, March 19th~!
10 am -1 pm
held in the western suburbs of Chicago.
The best thing is the area we are in has some great antique, thrift and resale shopping as well as some cute and trendy boutiques so when you are done with the gathering you can head out for a day of fun shopping. It's about 1.5 miles from the train station.
I had the announcement at the end of another post, and we've had a great response, but a few people had mentioned they didn't see it there, so here is the official post!
It was such a great time; meeting other bloggers, followers and people with the same interests.
Heidi and I are planning it this year. See Heidi waving in the background?
But ladies, I need your help to get the word out, so if you could post about it, that would be great.
I'll start a blog roll on the sidebar for everyone that's coming so you can see and visit before you come.
I had a fantastic time.
We ate, drank and chatted.
It was a really nice, low-key event.
So if you're free, and want to meet other bloggers, come on over!
Registration is $19 to cover the cost of food and drinks. We will be doing gift bags so if you'd like to contribute, let me know. Final count will be two weeks before the party. Final RSVP/ registration date is March 6th.
We will be doing gift bags, and a home decor/gift swap and a blog round table discussion.
Hope to see you there!
Jen

I'm so jealous! I wish that I could meet up with fellow bloggers where I live!!! Anyone out there in the San Franciso, eastbay area? I would love to be part of a community, and meet some like minded ladies to hang out with and go thrifting together. I hope you have a great turnout, I'll be there in spirit!
