This past weekend I had the pleasure of traveling down to Pasadena to the Southern California PK1 conference.  I presented on a session about interactive notebooks and I got to hang out with some really fun ladies.

I flew down with my other NorCal buddy Kelley from Teacher Idea Factory.   It was so nice to have a plane buddy!  She rocks at presenting by the way.  If you ever get a chance to watch her, she is a hoot!   Friday night we went to the blogger bash that the conference put on.  It was fun and a little crazy.  We started at one table and then had to switch tables for every course (and remember to bring our utensils with us).  I did meet some wonderful educators!

After the bash, we took over the hotel bar for some more fun and laughs.  It was a great way to calm my nerves because I was so nervous for my presentation.  I’m kind of a newbie in that department.  But the next morning, I woke up on time and made it through the presentation.  It was so much fun!  I met some great teachers!  SoCal teachers are so cool.

Later in the day, a few of us headed to a yummy lunch and laughed some more.  I got my ab workout for the weekend just with all of the laughing that occurred.  I even learned about a new reality show to watch (like I need another show to watch), Alaskan Bush People…high quality I am sure of it!
