Do YOU Make It? These Moms Do!

A big shout out today for Quinn Curtis… A gal who has taken what life has thrown her and not only made lemonade, she’s made a banquet of possibilities for other Moms Who Make It!

Quinn (Of CreatedByMom.com) and Jyl (of MomitForward.com)

I was so excited when I realized that Quinn’s Moms Who Make It conference was scheduled when I was going to be in Utah! I finally got to meet some of my fave Utah bloggers/tweeters and more! (You’d think I’d have met them while I LIVED there huh??)

Some great moments for me were:

Big Thanks to Marcel Walker for ‘donating’ this real photo to my blog today! She rocks.. check out her photog stuff, if you are in Utah.. You’ll be happy you did! (@rawmelissa, @quinncurtis, @sugarjones, @todaysmama, @wasatchwoman, @startupprincess)

• Meeting up with Pam Baumeister the editor of Wasatch Woman. Pregnant and all.. how I wish I’d gotten a photo of her cute self!
• MEETING the cookies made by the Dough Girl! (I mean meeting Tami the Dough Girl..)
• Listening to Sugar Jones talking about ways we all can overcome the crap thrown at us.
• Being amazed by Cari Greers story. Her face was almost literally ripped off during a horrible car accident, she was able to recover and keep her chin up..
• Hearing Kelly King-Anderson talk about her life and the ways she keeps the spiritual IN it!
• Did I mention cookies? (Oh my gosh the Ginger ones…!) Dough Girl promises me she will ship them to Oregon soon!
• Riding in a car with the MomFaves team to get a coffee/soda…
• Brainstorming ways to use social media for a local photographer: Marcel Walker.
• Sittin’ in the BACK of the room with supermomcentral for the break out sessions!
  (Dude— Lauren: Like.. did you take any pictures? I have none of ya!)

Sugar Jones gettin’ a facial, YO! Debbie of Cranberry Fries and Evonne Sell the Life and DANCER of the party from Sell Party of 3! The MomFaves Dynamic Duo: Josh and Rebecca Unfried, April from SweetLifeInTheValley.com, Julie from CrazyBeautiful , Danielle Mahoney of Dream Dinners in Orem (think she’ll cook for me next time I’m in Town??)

I was already a fan of the awesome Seth Jenks. But meeting him in person was seriously a treat.. he’s just a kid for pete’s sake! Look at his baby face.. ahem.. he’s single everyone!
