SCCON18 RECAP

This was the table that I was placed at on day 1!!

Everyone was gifted these amazing Cookies as well as the mugs!

These donuts were amazing to wake up to, I didn’t eat breakfast any of the mornings so the donuts & coffee came in clutch! The Flowers were stunning on all of the tables and counters!

I need the recipe for these balls!! They are so good!!
Walking to Ice Cream after have lunch at our reservation!! I am so bad I forgot what the place was called! I had salad- aka a bowl of lettuce with some parmesan, it was delicious, but the picture is not worth posting. We went to an Oyster restaurant- clearly I didn’t pay attention to what I was signing up for.

I would have stayed in his room all day!
Now to share my PhotoBooth moments!

Carmen, Paige and me!!
Day one was a success!! Annie really knows how to pull every detail together! The floral arrangements, the scent of the event, the yummy goodies, the music, the work books, the visuals to follow along. For lunches we had Panera, which is a hometown favorite, but I tried things off the menu I wouldn’t have tried and were delicious!! The plates that the Panera was served on we perfect for the event as well (blush pink and white with gold silverware) She really nailed it!! We could have easily all ate out of prepackaged boxed lunches from Panera, but instead Annie provided beautiful table settings for all of us. Speaking of table setting’s, our tables had beautiful pink or white table clothes with our floral arrangements and each person had a name tag with a handful of swag! I think everyone at the party felt like a VIP! I love how intimate it truly was. I plan to attend next year as well!!
Our Itinerary was as follows:
Wake up and get ready leaving no time to grab breakfast at the hotel

Catch an Uber to the venue

Lunch with Panera, and learning about podcasting with Annie and Courtney Bentley
We all then went on a surprise send off on the Raleigh Trolley to the Art district to see some cute boutiques as well as enjoy a sip on the rooftop (I didn’t get to indulge in this beverage, so I am not sure how it tasted)
After this, I was back to the Cannon Room to gather my luggage and grab an Uber and catch my flight back home!!
I then sat in the airport for about 3 hours since there were tornados that had touched down, none of the flights were leaving.
I was so sad to leave and when I got home I was even more sad! I truly am so happy when I am with other boss babes!
I had an amazing time meeting everyone and being around other boss babes who totally get me and my blogging ways!!
I left feeling very empowered and inspired! I have lots of work to do and lots of growth!
Thank You Annie!! muah muah muah!!
