Sometimes it's not appropriate to brag about who you know. Thank goodness this is not one of those times, because then I would miss out on telling you about the a-mazing event Chelsey, AKA The Paper Mama, threw this weekend that had me in a room with 50 of my most favorite PNW bloggers.
Like, Mandy {Harper's Happenings}, Heather {Joy of all Crafts}, Gretchen {That Mama Gretchen}, etc etc etc…
If you don't know Chelsey {left}, you should. She's seriously the sweetest, silliest, awesomest blogger ever, and she can pack a room like no one else. I met her at BlogHer last year and now have gotten a chance to party with her here in the PNW a few times as well and hope there are many more opportunities to do so in the future. New to her site? Check out her DIY ideas section. You're welcome.
The PNW Blogger meetup was in Portland this time, which was a great excuse to enjoy our second favorite NW city and have a mini family vacation this spring. As always, the PNW bloggers did not disappoint and there was a whole lot of laughing, shenanigans, and swag to go around. Is there any wonder why the event sold out so quickly?
Are you a PNW blogger who missed out on the event? You're in luck, because the next event will be on November 3rd, 2012 at the West Elm, in Portland, OR. The space is even larger and there will be more opportunities to network! Will I see you there?
A big thank you to Sara Grey Photography for the pictures!

I would love to join you guys in Portland for my first Blogger event. I am only North about 2 hours. I will look into it! Looks fun!
Oh, my! How did I not hear about this?
I am only 2 hours South and would love to go in November. Do you have info about registering?
This was so memorable experience. You meet your favorite bloggers. It’s like meeting with your favorite artist. This is so exciting.
