This weekend I met my absolute favorite home bloggers John and Sherry from
Young House Love. I love their style and check their blog daily to check out the renovations they are doing around their house. This month they released a book and I was so excited their book tour would come through Dallas.
I showed up at the West Elm down the street from my house an hour before the 11:00am signing started and was already at least 100 people back in line. My friend Kristi joined me and by about 11:20 we had made it into the actual store. While waiting we were served hot drinks and cookies galore!

I was so excited about getting my book signed yet had no clue what I was going to say to these people! I didn't know if I was going to geek out and come at them chatting a mile a minute or clam up. I pretty much clammed up. Luckily Kristi and I walked up together and the conversation turned to Kristi's 8 month pregnant belly. They signed our books, we had a laugh, Sherry correctly guessed Kristi was having a boy and then we got to pose for a photo.
I was so excited to get home and pour through the book. It's packed with great home improvement and home decor projects.
They love me! Ha! And the other 600+ people that ended up showing up Saturday morning. It was such a fun experience and great to meet people that I totally idolize when it comes to home renovations.
