at a later time

I just wanted to write this small note real quick before bed to let you guys know that I went to Women of Faith this weekend and had an AMAZING weekend!  I met Lisa Welchel (Blair Warner from The Facts of Life) and she’s just so sweet!

Lisa Welchel and Me!

Sorry about the poor quality, I didn’t really mess with the flash setting.  And also, sorry about my toilet being in view :)

Ok, so this post won’t make a lot of sense to most of the people that read this.  However, it’s not going to stop me.

My friend Thomas and I traveled to St. Louis, Missouri on Friday to see Leslie Hall.  She is an internet celebrity (those of you with kids, yes she’s been on Yo Gabba Gabba).  She’s a rapper of sorts, but she’s SO much more.  She’s amazing and I’m going to share my memories with you :)

Oh, side note: Her thing is “gem sweaters” she has a mobile Gem Sweater museum and collects them.  So this would be why we’re wearing gem sweaters :)

So, that’s that.  It was SOOO amazing.  A night I shall NEVER forget.  We actually got to talk to her BEFORE the concert and she actually asked us if we wanted to be on stage with her.  And then we hung around after the show and got these pics with her.  She was SO nice, and really sweet. I’ve included my current favorite song :) It’s called “Willow” it’s about Willow from the movie Willow…enjoy!
