Hi friends.
I wanted to check in with you from Blogher. It’s been a pretty good experience, although some aspects have been frustrating and others appalling, the rest has been really great. I love being with my friends and I love meeting new people.
(and since this isn’t over until tomorrow night, I’m really hoping to meet many, many more of you, m’kay?)
Tonight was unbelievably exciting for me.
I MET THE PIONEER WOMAN.
I enjoy her site so much, the way she writes, her family, her PHOTOGRAPHY. I love that’s she’s positive and friendly.
(The fact that she often shares photos of handsome cowboys in their chaps is just icing on the cake.)
I saw her from afar and I got real brave, approached her and we talked for a little bit and then I met Marlboro Man and then we took pictures of each other and with each other.
It was wonderful.
Meeting her and him, was definitely a highlight for me, not just for this weekend, but pretty much forever.
(more photos and updates to come!)
Beth!
How exciting! You both look so cute; two of my favorite bloggers, together, in the same spot.
Hope the not so great experiences dim with all the excitement you have left tonight + tomorrow. Savor every minute!
Whoopie!!! I’m so jealous! That is so exciting, what great pictures of all of you. I swear, that is the best picture of Marlboro Man EVER. Good job!
Beth, I am so happy for you and the high you were on afterward was the best thing ever to watch.

Very cool – I have been reading Ree for years and am so glad she has achieved the status she has…and you TOO Beth!
I’m so jealous! I love her site and your site so much!
How fun for you!!
Oh how fun!!!!! Good for you, going right up and introducing yourself. Sounds like a good time, although from Steph’s post, a bit overwhelming at times. I hope to see you in NYC next year, if not before!
ahh!! so jealous!!! How exciting. His eyes are so blue. sigh.
Okay, hooker – I am so jealous of that! How exciting and fun! I am happy for you!
Yay you!
I didn’t even know of this awesome lady until I read this post, hopped over to her blog, and fell in love!
So glad you’re having a great time and meeting some of your favorite bloggers.

Aww, the picture is adorable of you two! I love Ree, too.
How fun! I talked to her for a few minutes yesterday while she was waiting for a cab, but I was too chicken to ask for a photo.
I have passed you in the hall a few times too and really hope to have a chance to say hi and introduce myself before eveything is over.
She’s one of my new faves of late. Two of my favorite bloggers together…fun!
Hi! I came over after reading the post at Adventures in Babywearing & I love your blog title. I’m also pleased to write that I’m loving your blog too:) Congrats on meeting them, it’s always so much fun to meet people you read.
I am so jealous of you!
You are so gorgeous. I can’t wait to see you and hear all about it–I hope the positive continues to outweigh the frustrating/appalling!
SQUEE!!! Are they as gorgeous in person as they are in pictures? That is just dang kewl! I can’t wait for more pictures and details. Oh, and YOU look fantastic!
Wow! You go, girl! Great pictures!
So flipping cool!!!
Blogher WAS amazingly fun, wasn’t it?
What a great pic of you and Ree. I just love her too. Oh, and that’s got to be the best pic of Ree and MM. (Oh and um congrats, right?)
Oh snap! I saw you many times and I didn’t get to met you…officially, poo
.
Now, this is what BlogHer is all about!
BTW, thanks for taking that photo of the beautiful couple. The Pioneer Woman hasn’t taken any front shots of her man on her blog and here it is!
Yeah!!! I’m so jealous! I love PW. And I am so happy that you got a picture of both PW and MM together!. I think I actually sent Ree an email and specifically asked when we would see a picture of them together. So glad you have had such a great time.
That is just so cool!
Oh. My. Gosh.
Awww. I love her blog too. How fun! What a great weekend! Sooooooo exciting
Oh how awesome!!! I would be so dumbstruck!! Love them both!
That’s so wonderful that you got to meet one of your favorite bloggers and take your picture with her. That happened to me too when I met you…
That is so awesome!!!!
I was so excited to meet Ree and Marlboro man too!!! They were both so kind and gracious.
AND I was THRILLED to finally meet YOU!!!
WOW!!!
I would pay to go to blogher JUST to meet Ree. I think she is so amazingly funny and kind. And to meet both Ree and Marlboro Man… Eeeeeeeeek!
pioneer woman. jealous.
Wow! How cool is that! Ree comes across like such a wonderful person from her writing!
I am so proud of you and secretly jealous that you got a pic with Pioneer Woman. I was not brave and I will be more brave next year. Love these pictures and am so happy for you for winning the award. You deserve it!
Congrats! You two even kinda look alike.
I think that is the first picture I’ve seen with MM and Ree together.
Right here on I Should Be Folding Laundry.
Hi Beth! I’d like to thank you for introducing me to Pioneer Women. I’ve done nothing the last two days but read her archives. I always stop back here to see what you are up to. Thanks again…I love her site and the pictures of the cowboys are an added bonus!
