O.k......my name is Kasey .....and here is my version of last weekend. I had my camera pretty much most of the entire weekend, and the photo above shows what i looked like.
My friend Amy and i got up really early on Friday to catch our flight to good ole Spokane. No sooner did we get to the hotel, that all the other girls that we were meeting showed up.

.....well.....we ended the weekend at Chaps. Not only did we party at this Divine little restaurant Saturday eve, but we went back Sunday morning for brunch.
I just wish i could have driven this truck home......because you see.....i have a secret crush on old trucks......you can read about it here........and one day...i can feel it....one day....i will also have an old 56 Chevy. {sigh}
I have to say...that this last weekend in Spokane was just what a girl like me needed....being around like minded women who have the same passion that i have for life.

Well said Kasey. It was a pleasure meeting you. If you ever find yourself in Minneapolis, you better visit - I mean it.
I could not adore you more~

Great pictures Kasey! I have a crush on old trucks too. My hubby is going along with it but he's been looking at trucks from the 60's. He keeps asking me when we can get one. lol We need to save some more pennies first. An old truck would look perfect parked in front of your house.

A picture perfect weekend indeed. Can't wait to see your little treasures. I need to put it on the calendar for next year! xo
Such a fun post about such a fun weekend! Love all your pictures!
Fun, fun, fun! I enjoyed your take on the weekend, Kasey. Loved the pics...and your comments...what a great time! I wish I could have gone, but everyones pics are the next best thing. :)
xo
Looks like such fun!!! So wish I could have been there and met you in person. Maybe next year!!!
You always put a smile on my face! Even when it's 8 am and I am stuffing my face by my computer with chocolate chip cookies! p.s. we have a 57 chevy that we took to our highschool prom together, forever ago! Love old cars too!
Aww, you look adorable. In a none babyface way. :) I really enjoyed taking my time with each picture and imagining myself there. What a wonderful weekend. I can't wait to see what you brought home.
Great post Kasey, can't wait to see what you brought home! XO
what a fun looking trip!!!
Wow-that trip looks like it was wonderful! Thanks for sharing. :)
Loving all the photos. A terrific post!
How fun!!! I'll live the moment through your pictures, since I could not be there.
Looks like a great trip!
I would like to be there with all of you!
Hugs,
Federica
Looks like a lovely weekend!
Oh and those cupcakes look divine :)
Just too much fun!
How fun! I love that piano~~
xoxo Noel
Fun, Fun, Love the Truck!
Looks you gals had a great time!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing the yummy photos!!!!!
I have a crush on old trucks too. I found one online (a 42 Chevy) and it was gorgeous for only $14,000. Too bad it was $14,000 too much, but anyway:)
Love that post. I so wish I could have been there too.
I can't find myself in any of those pictures...I keep looking...
Such fun you all had!!!
LuLu
love all of your photos...looks like so much fun. what a party!! hoping to be there next year...
p.s...love that hat!!
I am so stinkin' jealous! It looks like so much fun.
I want a 48 chevy or Ford, but it'll be awhile... ugh.
xoxo,
rue
I loved this post! Wish I could have gone
Beautiful! Love to be closer.....(sigh)
Stop by for a give away
It looks like you all had a fantastic weekend. What I wouldn't give to go to the Farm Chicks show!! Maybe next year. Maybe I should start saving now:)
That sounds heavenly. My last and only weekend away was not with likeminded women. Oh, they were lovely but nothing in common but the kids. I would much rather have been with you wonderful ladies. Thanks for letting me live vicariously through your photos.
Envy to the n'th degree!!
Christan also dreams of owning a '56 Chevy so he and Ashton can restore it. I told him, he can have one if he restores one for me...a pink one ;)
Awesome pictures Kasey! You have a way with story telling that I really like :)
From what I can tell if you get a bunch of blog crazy women together there will be lots of great outfits! I've seen so many tops and dresses that I adore in your pics! WOW! What a line at the show. Though it looks like it was totally worth it. Such fun, such fun.
Can't wait to see your treasures.
I know you love those cute trucks! So glad you had fun..My girls are photo nuts too:)
What a beautiful bunch of girls!
what a wonderful looking trip!! I so wish I could have been a part of this. sniff sniff.
I can't wait to see what you brought home! Next year - you should def. drive that truck back to Illinois :)
Looks like such a blast! All those fabulous blogging gal pals together in one place - gotta love it!
Fun, Fun, Fun... just as I expected. The shoes below.... TO DIE FOR!!!
Can't wait to see what you bought!!!
j.e.a.l.o.u.s. I had a dream that I went to farm chicks with y'all. and then i woke up sad that i was home and my side doesn't hurt from laughing to much.
i hope you go again, and i hope to be there too!
xoxoxo
love this post. so perfectly kasey.
Kasey, thank you so much for including a photo of our original design collaged 'Piano Bar' in your beautiful pictorial of the show. We are honored!
The photo that Kim (Mimi Charmante) has on her blog of you lounging against the piano bar just makes me smile. I know you just loved it.... if there had been any way to fit in in your suitcase, we would have tried!!!!!

I feel all excited and tingly and giddy for you girls! Such beauty and fun!
It is so much fun to see everyone's photos! Those cupcakes are making me want to head back...like right now!
...great photos Kasey. Goodness, I wish I was there :) First thing I thought after looking at your photos was "Dang, those are some pretty ladies all dressed so nice". Love all your outifts, you guys look lovely!
~michelle.f
It looks like a fabulous time! I am so glad you all got to have such a great time! I have to go to one of these sometime! Love all the pictures, what eye candy inside to shop around! I would have been lost for hours there!!! Can't wait to see your new treasures!!!
Hey Kasey, it was thrilling to meet you all!!
And you really should have brought me a cupcake. :) j/k
And,,,I know I am probably behind times, but YOU HAD A LITTLE DIDDY IN COUNTRY LIVING!!! How cool is that! (I am looking at the latest issue on new ways to shop). Very sweet Kasey, you go girl!!!
Hugs,
Teresa

That looks like one perfect weekend. How lucky for you that you got to go and bond with all those awesome ladies!
So much FUN...i felt like part of the cute girl gang...thanks for letting us come along...everything looked amazing ...i so want to see what you bought.
Also a big congrats...my new Country Living just arrived here in Canada!
Okay, you're going to think I'm a geek for leaving this comment, but we've already established that fact, so here goes anyway. When I left a comment about the funny story on McMaster and Storm, I think I called it Marley and Lockyer. Just felt stupid...too many names...two M's. You know, my thirty-something brain is overworked, and I can't keep it all straight. 'Kay, done being geeky. Have a great day!
Looks like you all had such a good time. Wish I had been there!!!
Such fun and happy pictures. We're glad you were able to visit the show and to share it with so many of your friends.
:) Serena
Great post Missy! :o) LOVED hanging with every one. It was certainly the most fun I've had in a long time.
XO
Oh Kasey, you guys had so much fun!
Looks and sounds like amazing fun! And you looked soooo stylish:)
This post makes me sick with envy!
It's possible to be happy and jealous at the same time, right? Because I am. :)
I'm thrilled for all of you who got to meet and experience the Farm Chicks show!! THRILLED!
But I'm so stinkin' jealous I can't stand it.
Thanks for letting us have a peak at your fun weekend! Congrats on your Country Living exposure. Erin
Hi Kasey,
Wow, have just found your amazing blog & have to say 'I SOOO GET WHAT YOU ARE SAYING'! I have read heaps of blogs over the last 3 years & yours just plain makes sense to me. Your post on 'In my Shoes' & 'The Bigger Picture' really made me feel like we are kindred spitits (hope that doesn't freak you out!)
Your pictures are just fabulous, Farm Chicks looked like so much fun. You girls all look so happy & you made me smile on the spending more money on fancies line...oh so true.
I will be back to read over more of your older posts this weekend.
Come visit me back when you get the chance.

Looks like a great time everyone had at this wonderful event. I was viewing photos at mimi charmante blog.
I too would love a vintage truck. I have a red one posted on the side of my fridge I look at all the time.
Enjoy! xoxo

Hi Kasey, great post! I went to the Farm Chicks this year as well. Too bad I didn't bump into you and your fun gang of girls. Wasn't it fabulous!!! Thanks for sharing your great pics I was so busy shoppin & yappin with all those fabulous, like minded, creative souls that I forgot to take more pictures. Hope to see you there next year.
