Weekend Shenanigans

Weekends are always exponentially better than the week. 
So today I am crying in a corner. 
Just Kidding. 
But really. Weekends are the best.

This weekend I got to meet the diva herself: Sami from Sami's Shenanigans
It's weird meeting people in person.
What if it's awkward? What if we don't click? What if she is making up who she really is and "catfishing" me?

I brought my best friend along just in case and we met up at a bar in Deep Ellum (in Dallas). 
Turns out we clicked. 

We had a blasty blast. She brought along her friend Jen who I also loved. 
Jen, Sami, I and Lyndsie.

We then went to my favorite hole in the wall, dance joint. 
Where I preceded to embarrass everyone with my dance moves.
I tend to be weird about dancing. In that I can't stop. 

Saturday I went 45 minutes outside of Dallas, to Fort Worth, to celebrate my friend's birthday.
Her husband got us a hotel room. 
To say it was sketchy was an understatement. But that's what makes great memories.
We think we might have found cameras in the room.

We had dinner and then went out for dancing. Just my style.

Sunday was bloggy brunch day!
Back row: Sami, Amber, Me, Sarah
Front row: Jen, Max, Lia
I met up with some wonderful girls for brunch. 
They were all so sweet. (You should check em out!)
And they told me I didn't even scare them.
(Even though I know they were lying.)

You know you're a blogger when...

So you see, meeting with people you've never met before can work out. 

How was your weekend?!

So fun you got to meet Sami . . . although it would have been awesome if you were catfished. ;)

That's so fun you got to meet blog friends! I'm so scared of being catfished too! Freaks me out. That last pic is hilarious...only bloggers. :)

Meeting people is always weird, but usually turns out okay. And I always leave thanking god there was no Catfish incident.

You packed in the fun girl!

I can't stop dancing too once I start. We'd be quite the scene.

This sounds great. How awesome to be near so many bloggers! And girlfran, I need a couple in me before I dance like a fool. Haha. Maybe you could bring it out in me?

I think this post is stupid. And your weekend was stupid. And I don't care. And I'm not jealous.
PS I do really like Ft. Worth though. That one time I was there for 8 hours it was super fun.
PSS I want your pink shirt.
PSSS I do care about your weekend. I lied.

Haha it would be impressive if someone managed to pull off a real catfish-blogger stunt- so many pictures to photoshop!

Sad I was just a few hours away from this amazing meetup!

As if I wasn't jealous before... you have to remind me on a Monday when I'm already grumpy. So rude.

The highlight from my Sunday was you saying "Hi, I'm Helene, I'm still drunk from last night." and then you taking a sip from your mango slush/mimosa/whatever you were having. Loveeeee itttt.

I LOVE the last picture. We seriously look like that at ever blogger meetup I've ever gone too. Except we rarely get pictures. Blogger fail. Looks like you guys had a great time, and I'm super jealous.

Jennifer said... Reply To This Comment

Pretty sure we would get along too. I tend to dance way too much. I danced pretty much my entire wedding. My friends sat at their table. I was dancing the night away like I was at a club, lol.

"To say it was sketchy was an understatement." hahahaha! I literally laughed out loud! Sounds like a fun weekend!

Kelsey Eaton said... Reply To This Comment

What an awesome weekend!! Glad your meetup went well. Those things give me some serious anxiety. So much pressure, or maybe I just make myself think that...haha!

So glad that you and Sami clicked. I can totally see you two becoming BFFs for life!! I loved that so many blog dates happened in the Great State of Texas this weekend. So fun. And I swear if we lived closer, we would be dancing it up at least once a month!!

Faith Bowyer said... Reply To This Comment

This looks like such a fun weekend!
Minus the sketchy hotel room... that may or may not have had cameras - haha creepy!

Yay for a jam-packed weekend of fun! Glad you ladies enjoyed yourselves!

Thanks for linking up :)

Ashley said... Reply To This Comment

SO much fun!!! I've met a few bloggers in real life and it's been great. You really do have the most fun on the weekends...I'm going to have to hang out with you one of these days :-)

Kat@shop.school.sleep. said... Reply To This Comment

What a fun weekend!! I met bloggers before I started blogging, but it was very casual...I'm sure it will be different when I meet bloggers in real life too

Emmett Katherine said... Reply To This Comment

Weekends are the best and Monday's are kinda not that fun. It's always great to meet fellow bloggers you follow, cool that you guys clicked!

Tara said... Reply To This Comment

I can completely relate on the weekend blues. Sunday nights are the worse in terms of dreading the work week ahead :/. Looks like your weekend was fab though! I can't wait to meet some of my bloggy friends in real life ha.

Happy Monday to you!

Whitney Cypert said... Reply To This Comment

Sounds like a fun weekend! I haven't met any of my blogging friends but I would love to! Glad it worked out and wasn't awkward!

Rachel said... Reply To This Comment

I remember the first time I met a blogging friend in person, I was so nervous we wouldn't click. Turns out we did! Thanks for stopping by my blog, I love yours! Have a great day!!

Aggghhh I didn't know y'all were meeting! Well, if you guys clicked then we will too, because Sami and I have hung out several times and I wuv her!

Maddie~The Whimsy One said... Reply To This Comment

I am weird about dancing in that I am really, really good at it sober and I love it. Give me drinks and people watch the nightmare unfold. and why in Hades do all the awesome bloggers live in Texas? Duham.

Sami said... Reply To This Comment

I decided to come comment on this and then I cried because I want to relive it. I'm weird but you're a little weird too so its a match made in HEAVEN.
