Dallas Wrap Up

Happy Monday, friends! I hope you had a great weekend. I traveled to Dallas for a work conference and it was quite the whirlwind. I learned so much and enjoyed seeing so many talented bloggers. And being away from the family also makes coming home that much sweeter. I really missed the sweet faces of my babies and of course my hubby. Because I spent all of yesterday loving on my family, I decided to do a quick recap via phone photos.

Megan has been a friend for years now and I always feel so lucky and blessed when I get to spend time with her. It’s like we can’t get in enough conversation.

Pretty much in love with this dress. I think the back makes it even more fun. And you can still wear a normal bra with it. Huge plus. I plan to wear this for summer date nights and a wedding we have coming up. So on Friday night we got all dressed up and headed out to a beautiful party . . . which we were immediately evacuated from due to a crazy thunderstorm. You should have seen 200 bloggers in heels being evacuated from a tent in the torrential downpour. Had someone video taped it it may be a contender for America’s Funniest Home Videos.

We still made the best of it and spent time catching up with old friends and getting to know new friends. Such a talented and inspiring group of women. I so loved meeting Ashley and Carly for the first time. Such talents.

Had a wonderful time getting to know Veronika {Veronika’s Blushing}. She brought her adorable daughter along so it was so much fun seeing a her toddle around. It made me miss my babies even more!

The venue really was a fantastic spot for a conference. It doesn’t get any lovelier.

And this sweet and beautiful girl was such a blast. I have been reading Caycee’s blog for years and I knew we would get along so well. She is such a bright light.

Natalie is pure kindness. What a beautiful mama. She honestly should be a supermodel. But beyond her beauty, she is as real as they come and I loved meeting her. I am a huge fan of this purple skirt and halter combination. The skirt runs large. I bought a size zero and a size medium in the top.

If you don’t already know Desiree, you are missing out. She is kind and sweet and is just so darling. You can get to know more about her over at Beautifully Seaside.

Mallory from Charming In Charlotte is one of those people that I feel like I have known for years. She is just darling and I so enjoyed hanging out with her. I just wished she lived closer! Her home and style are flawless.

And that’s a wrap. I could go on and on but wanted to stick to the highlights! Thanks for letting me share. Hopefully you found some new blogs to go take a look at!

When I walked into our master bedroom, this was here! What?! I had mentioned one time that I love these and would love to have one. The hubby made one for me as an early Mother’s Day gift. He even styled it. My jaw dropped. I was so touched. I will share details in another post soon. And update: Gigi New York has free personalization on their gorgeous leather numbers today and tomorrow. You can see my favorites here, here, and here. I love the idea of giving them as gifts, too.

Wishing you a wonderful Monday. I pretty much dropped my bags at the door and will be spending the day unpacking and getting caught up. See you back here tomorrow!
