Spring Convention

Last weekend I had the privilege of going to the Spring Convention for the Northern California Association of Mothers of Twins Clubs. It was hosted by our Sacramento club and I had been asked to do a talk on photographing your children. I probably wouldn't have gone if I wasn't speaking, and am I ever glad that I went. It was the perfect break that I needed. I walked into my hotel room and this was the first thing that I saw. My roommates had already got the bar set up!


Let me tell you... these twin/triplet mommies know how to let loose. And there was so much free stuff given out during the convention. There were over a HUNDRED raffle baskets including everything from kids toys to gift certificates to restaurants to double strollers. I won a basket of best selling books and chocolate which was a nice treat.


And here's the ladies from my club that attended. The convention was for all of northern California and there was probably around 150 people there. You may be able to tell from some of the outfits that it was an "Alice in Wonderland" theme.


The workshops covered everything from what to do during minor medical emergencies to craft projects to do with your preschooler. Saturday there was a talent show complete with karaoke machine. It was seriously a blast. But the highlight was spending some quality time with friends (both old and new) and not having to cut up any body's food other than my own. Fabulous!
