Things That Make Me Go Ahhhh....

This Friday I want to show you some of the things I loved most about last weekend.

It was such a joy to meet all of the bloggers who came but I was especially lucky to have 3 stay with me. And what amazing women they were. Both nights we got to talk until we turned into pumpkins. I love that more than once we needed the tissues as we shared time together... I love that even though we'd just met we felt that special connection immediately.

Here they are taking photos of each other. I'm hopeful I'll get some more pics of them because I didn't take any all weekend.

Stella

Talia (I stole this photo off her blog.... where are the photos of Talia??)

Jess


I loved every minute with you.

Swap partners - I luckily ended up with 3 of them. I didn't get to spend anywhere near enough time with them but they made the most amazing badges for me and my gifts were so perfect too!

Thanks so much Vanessa


Jackie


and Katrina


and I got some other little gifts from some special people too. The phone is mine and the cute pencil is from C1.


I got and amazing goodie bag and a wonderful hamper from lush too but I'll have to show you those another time.


Look at this amazing little stamp I bought from the shop at Addington Coffee Co-Op


Joining in with beautiful Meghan and other grateful people.

Ahhhhhhh this makes sense - I've heard a lot of people lament that they didn't get to spend time with Stella, Talia and Jess - and now I realise its because you were hogging them!!! ;)

and to you lovely x
Aw, thanks Miriam! Staying with you was amazing. I came away from the weekend feeling so good, right down deep into my soul, you know? And I know that was because of the wonderful times we spent hanging out at your place. Next time I'm in Christchurch you know I coming over, right?

you can come ANY time lovely xx
So lovely - so many awesome people! x
It was SO FUN staying with you Miriam!! A few tearful (in a good way) moments, and so much laughing. So really, quite therapeutic. Plus there was all that delicious baking. All round, excellent!

and it was a delight to host you and your delicious wee man xxxx
That fab yellow clutch is SO you! I was admiring it on Sunday. I casually slunk away as soon as the cameras started coming out {as casually as one so large can of course!}.
