Welcome Home Saturday : Fun News
I have some fun news to share with you all today!
Next week I will be heading to Los Angeles for the Amazon Creator’s Summit! I fly out on Wednesday and will be at the conference Thursday and Friday and then guess what, my family will be joining me in Los Angles on Friday!
Our 13 year old Grace, is playing in a basketball tournament with her team in Orange County. So we plan to watch her and her team and also pop over to Disneyland.
A lot of fun in the works for all of us!
I am also so pumped because I am getting to room with my long time blogging bestie Brendt, from She Gave It a Go before my family arrives. She is flying in from Alabama and I am flying in from Colorado. If you want to follow along with us we will both be sharing on our Instagram stories. (Find me HERE on IG and Brendt HERE on IG)
