An awesome event came across my email inbox. I was incredibly excited and looking forward to the event but there were no events in my area, let alone my state.
Should I move? Seriously. I thought that could possibly work until I thought of all the boxes and packing involved.
Then I came up with an even better idea. Why not create an event for my area? I mean how hard could it actually be? Find a location, invite a few friends, and ask a few friends to help with giveaways.
Should be simple right? Turns out it was.
All it takes is one…
I began to plan the event in my mind and quickly realized that it would be best to have someone to partner with.
All it takes is one, then two…
Finding the right partner with this was crucial and I knew exactly who to ask. She was so excited and was immediately on board!
All it takes is one, then two…then bam!

We have no idea how far this will go
BUT
one thing is for sure…
we are having fun along the way.
Many mom based businesses will receive publicity
and many moms will come and have a great time.
Along the way we are just having a blast planning the event!
Go check out Becoming Homegrown and show some love
for their willingness to co-host the event!
