Shawn was just as fun-loving and humble IRL as she is on her blog- I think we talked non-stop for 2 hours while we enjoyed a margarita (or 2). Funny thing, while we were there, ESPN was having their college football awards and we were on the lookout for Tim Tebow ( University of Florida QB) and Colt McCoy (UT QB). Unfortunately, they were too busy to hang out with us cool chicks that day.
the iPhone just didn't want to take a great picture that day- we are MUCH cuter IRL!
Being the wonderful Florida host & friend that she is, Shawn came bearing gifts for me & my family!!! She made this wonderful picture of my babies is going on my wall next to my bed. Isn't it "darling"?
And she brought yummy candy treats for the kiddos and a whole tin of freshly baked monster cookies- I had just commented on how yummy those sounded to her recently and she made me a whole batch!! It was a perfect treat to have in the room!
Shawn, you are just as wonderful in person as you are on your blog!! I enjoyed meeting you and love that we hit it off so well!! Thanks for making the effort to come over and meet!! And thanks for all the great goodies!!
Ironically, while we were there, one of Sissy's friends from her class at school and her Girl Scout troop was there with her family- so we met up at the Magic Kingdom and let them give each other a hug!
So fun that it really is a small world after all, isn't it?

How fun that you all got to meet in real life. There are so many of you gals on the blog that I wold love to meet. Isn't it amazing how we really get to become good pals here on the blog.
This trip just keeps getting better.
I read this the other day and got interrupted mid-comment ;) How FUN to meet up with a blog friend. I, too, am jealous! I want to meet up!!! :) Looks like you guys had a blast!
Am. So. Jealous.
Did you drink an extra margarita for me...?
OK, I'm verklempt!
You are just so sweet! I do agree we are MUCH cuter in person! It was a pure joy to meet you!
But I must clarify...I am the lucky one, you took precious time away from your family risking me being a crazy internet stalker just so we could meet IRL! You are gracious, brave and fun...a true trifecta!
Happy belated birthday and have a very merry Christmas!
