St. Louis was AMAZING!
I am still on a high from this weekend. I had such a fun time with all of my new friends. Friday my plane was delayed at least an hour so I was late to my own workshop but these gals were so cool. Seriously, we had such a fun time even in the middle of winter. Friday night, we shot some cute kids and then went and did a boudiour session. That is so not my comfort zone but I totally went with it. We ended up staying up until about 3 that night just gabbing! Then Saturday we started bright and early at 8:30 and shot until around 10 pm. Then we went out to dinner again and stayed at the hotel restaurant until 2.30 in the morning. I haven’t laughed like that in years. I laughed so hard I was crying!
All of us bonded like we had known each other for years! We are even planning on doing a trip together sometime so we can all hang out again!
One of the girls Alli from Canada had a connecting flight thru MPLS with me and so we rode down to STL together and then I came home on Sunday but her flight was on Monday. Her flight in STL was delayed over 2 hours and she called me from the airport telling me that she would miss her connecting flight and be stuck in MPLS for 9 hours. I dropped everything for that day rescheduled my customers and it worked out fine anyway b/c the weather was awful. I brought my daughter to a friend’s house and then I drove up to the airport and picked Alli up and we went to the Mall of America for the day. It was so nice b/c I was so wanting to be back in STL because I had so much fun so this totally extended my weekend.
Anyway, here are a few pics from this weekend.
This is Maurice, he’s the chef at the hotel restaurant Eclipse and he came out and talked with us and totally gabbed it up with all of us ladies. We told him that if we saw him we’d take a couple photo of him so this is Maurice.
Seriously, if you ever go to St. Louis, stay at The Moonrise Hotel. Their service was absolutely outstanding! But, please go there with your special someone…..(if ya catch my drift!!)
The weekend was amazing. The ladies were amazing. I’ve not laughed like that in years. I had an amazing time. If you are even somewhat on the fence of coming to a workshop just ask Terri, Teri, Alli, Laurie, Erin or Kay how much fun they had and how much they learned! I love them all to pieces!
Thank you ladies for an AMAZING weekend! I love you all!
Just got this hilarious photo from our group shots!!! I can’t believe I’m posting it but I think it’s hilarious!!

What is that light above his head? The flash reflecting off the silver curtains? The sun outside the window? I must know

Your work is nothing short of amazing! I’m just waiting for my tax returns to buy some of the equipment I need to put your OCF book to work! Thanks a ton!
