Hence forth, I hid out behind the camera to catch the likes of:
~ the Marvelous Melanie of Bag and A Beret ~ |
~ extra Sassy Sheila of Ephemera ~ |
~ Lovely Louisa of Damselfly's Delights ~ |
~ Amazing Anne of Spy Girl next to the Madcap Mother of Terrific Tami of Thrift Shop Commando ~ |

~ me, Melanie and Anne dancing in the street (photo by unknown bloggess) ~ |
ooo, ooo and then there were the separated-at-birth twin artifacts made by Melanie and given to Anne and me. Sublime, ain't it? (photo by Patti).

Hey, I have something on my head up there. Here's my chance to finally join Judith's Hat Attack. Check out all the lovlies, my dear.
Oh yes, wasn't that fun?! Hee hee. What a pleasure to meet you, Pao, Thou of the Magic Hair, and your True Love. From so far away too. These photos are BIG. Hurrah! That first shot is one of my favourites because it was so spontaneous, and the street dancing one which show off your shoes so well. Too bad we can't see what was written on your socks. Great roundup.
ReplyDeleteGood thing there's all this documentation everywhere or I wouldn't believe it really happened, or rather, that I was there! And omg, I met Ms. Melanie!
DeleteWhat a fun group! Great pictures. We're all still glowing from the event.
ReplyDeleteYes, yes, yes! So glad to have met you Ally. I must say you were quite striking in that Canadian tie. Is that something you'll wear to work?
DeleteYou all look like you had such fun. I love seeing happy bloggers hanging out. <3
ReplyDeleteWe did, and I was exhausted too, so many naps were skipped for the greater good. I still can't believe I was there...
DeleteI've so enjoyed reading everyone's recap of the meetup - I'm so sorry I couldn't be there. I'm very envious you got to meet Mel - I'm hoping to have that pleasure some day.
ReplyDeleteYeah, you're not that far away really. Next time?
DeleteLovely to see you in all your glory!
ReplyDeleteMust have been fun and exhausting. Love the first celebrity shot! Xo Jazzy Jack
It was, it was! When's the downunder meet-up?
DeleteDancing in the streets really says it all, doesn't it! Your photo selection is bliss! Colour, pattern, sun, smiles...oh,and some awesome styles!
ReplyDeleteAh, Sweet Sue, we never got to talk sewing now did we? How is that possible?
DeleteYou did better than I did with the pictures. I only took photos from the plane. What do we call a man caftan? A Maftan? A Cafman? Either way it's awesome. xoxo
ReplyDeleteI call it a Man Dress. But who knows, maybe a caftan was male first... I really related to your posts. Made a very deliberate effort to not dis my photos no matter what, out loud or to myself, cuz I know where that goes. So far, so good. It was great to meet you, Shawna. Until we do again...
DeleteSo. Much. Fun. It was so amazing to meet you and your True Love in person!! I'm so glad you could come to Vancouver to play. (Oh, and thanks for the not-so-bad photo of me. And the pigeons.)
ReplyDeleteI think it's a great photo of the Lovely Louisa. It was amazing to meet you fer reel and I'm so glad to have made it to Vancouver. You were the greatest tour guide. Sorry to have missed the special offer. So much to do, so little time...
DeleteHa! I love that photo with the hand : )
ReplyDeleteI didn't have much of a chance to talk to you but I'm delighted you and your True Love came and you enjoyed yourselves.
Your endless creativity is an inspiration.
bisous
Suzanne
And I'm overjoyed you guys brought this thing into fruition. 3 cheers to you!!!
DeleteGlorious! What a festive event! So happy to enjoy from afar.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore your "undercover" hat, which is the perfect addition to Hat Attack. Thank you so much for sharing!
Now I'm off to check out more blogger meet-up photos!
It was a pleasure to participate in all the events!
DeleteOf all those gorgeous bloggers I think our smile was the biggest! I love that photo of you, Anne & Melanie, its utterly wonderful! xxx
ReplyDeleteYou started it Vix. After vicariously enjoying all your blogger meet-ups, I finally was able to do one for real. Yay!
DeleteThank you for posting such great pictures of the meetup!
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure, Tami, as was meeting you and your Mom. I visited your site and tried to leave a comment, but couldn't without signing up to join something (which I am loath to do.)
