Blogger Meet Up

This past weekend I was able to meet up with two fellow mil spouse bloggers in my area!

Saturday I met Meg from Meg's Life As An Army Wife. I met her at the Sara Horn event. Waiting for her to arrived I felt like I was in high school all over again. I was so nervous. It's always nerve racking for me when I meet new people. I tend to either talk to much or become very quiet and appear standoffish. But I didn't have to worry meeting Meg. She was so nice and down to earth. We had so much fun talking and even had similar experiences when it came to meeting people in this town. The Sara Horn event was amazing and it was so nice to know someone else there with me. I hope to def hang out with Meg again

Sunday I met up with Sara. Her blog is now private so I will not post the link. BUt we met at Applebees for dinner. What's even better is that the hubby's got to meet to. Her hubby and mine will be in the same unit. So not only was it great to meet another mil spouse but it was great to meet some couple friends. The guys seemed to hit it off and Sara is super friendly and sweet with the most adorable little boy. We had so much fun chatting and my husband even commented on the car ride home on how similar in personality we are. I hope to also get together with Sara again too

Sara and I were talking over dinner on how it seems we know our blogger friends more than we may know some of our actual friends and how it's weird that we have never met some of them. We even talked about how our hubby's hear about our blogger friends because we talk about them like we actually know them.

I had a blast meeting these two girls and hope to get together with them some more

  1. Yay! I try to explain to people what the whole blogging thing means but no one quite gets it unless they do it. It doesn't matter how many wonderful bloggers I meet the amazment on how well we know each other when we do meet is crazy and never fades. I love it! :D

    Thanks again!

  3. I'm glad the event turned out well. I got a chance to meet Sara at the book signing that occurred earlier that day. You are right, she is a very sweet lady.

    Have a wonderful day!

  4. That's awesome! And so true about knowing blogger friends better than some real friends because, atleast for me, I will write things in my blog that I might be afraid to say in person. It's an outlet and so people really get to know the real you!
