Even if you've just started blogging, brands want to connect with Calgary and area bloggers. Are you wondering how to begin or manage your relationships with brands, you need to be at the Connecting Bloggers and Brands conference happening in Calgary in June?
National and local brands will be in attendance and they want to meet and  talk with you about the blogger/brand relationship! You’ll also get to meet many other local bloggers, to develop friendships, partnerships and great working relationships. The best way to build your blog is by meeting other people doing the same thing as you, we all love to learn from each other's experiences.

PJ Day at School


March brought another Special Helper day for Grady, it also happened to fall on Pajama Day! I played along too and wore my pjs to school. We brought pancakes and virgin mimosas for snack. Tiggy came too as all the kids got to show off their favorite stuffy to their classmates.
