BlogHer or BUST!

by Savings Lifestyle: Andrea on July 23, 2009

I will be offline this weekend going to my first ever BlogHer blog conference! I’m super excited because I get to meet up with some of my blog friends whom I chat with online a lot. Some of them don’t even have faces…seriously, they just have cartoons of themselves online. So, getting to see the *real* them in person is like pretty awesome!

Of course, the Van ‘O Fun & 80′s Music is making a return. I am driving with the same cast of characters as my Blissdom Conference trip. Well, we’re throwing in a few different peeps…they begged needed a fun group of ladies to hang with and all :) Truth be told, they all really begged to drive with me. Don’t ask them though, they may deny that. We will be enjoying the same classical 80′s music though – that’s how we got the awesome name for the van and all :)

Oh, and pray that these ladies do NOT corrupt me on this long drive to Chicago. They will do stuff like that…why do you think I ride bulls and sing karaoke? These bloggers (and the #bigdealmoms) really get me out of my normally shy shell ;-) {sarcasm}

Carrie @ Money Saving Methods
Marianne @ The New Frugal Mom
Tricia @ Once A Month Mom
Erin @ $5 Dinners
Briana @ Bargain Briana

And, I want to thank a few sponsors helping with some financing covering my conference cost.

First, Disney, the Mouse with the mostess! I’m excited to meet up with some of the other Magical Moms at a cocktail reception and reminisce all things Mickey :)

Cozi is another generous sponsor. I literally just found out about this company. If you want to have an awesome organizational tool for your entire family, it is an awesome, awesome site! So much to share that I don’t want to sell it short. Watch for a full run-down on Cozi in the upcoming weeks. {it’s FREE too!!!}

So, that’s all that!

I do have a few posts scheduled while I’m away. But, I will be back up and running with regular store deals as usual on Monday.

For my Fat Burnin’ Friday followers, I’m doing a 5K at the conference on Friday. I can’t wait to share all the sweaty tales of that with you next week :)
