the tattooed teacher: carolina girls! the best in the world!

Hey, it’s what the song says. You can’t argue!

This Saturday I went to my first blogger meet-up! I drove 2 hours to Columbia to meet up with some wonderful girls, talk blogging, kids, TpT, and everything in between. I met blogging celebrities and some bloggers I’d never heard of. If you’ve not attended a meet-up yet, DO IT! It’s a riot talking to someone whose words you read daily-but have never actually spoken to!

And thank you so much to Rebecca for getting all the names and blogs matched for me!

In attendance {make sure you follow their blogs for fabulous ideas--no matter what grade it is!}:

from left to right- sort of!

Autumn, Ashley, and Tammy from Fanatical in First Grade
Kim (starting her blog soon, right Kim?!?)
Ginger from Gingersnaps Treats for Teachers
Elizabeth from Fun in 4B
Gretchen from Always a Lesson
Hope from 2nd Grade Shenanigans
Dana from 3rd Grade Gridiron

A huge thanks to Hope for setting it all up. The restaurant was great {mimosas also help!} And a huge hug to Shasta, Ginger, and Lacie for dragging me around Columbia with them! It is fun to enjoy drinks, cupcakes, drinks, seafood, drinks, and chocolate covered Pringles with some fun girls!!

on a more serious note. I just donated to Tiffany’s Fund. Have you? She’s a friend of The Bubbly Blonde and even if you do not need ALL the items, you could help out a young momma who has just been diagnosed with cancer. You get tons of files donated by amazing teachers! You get a smile in your heart too!
