This post is dedicated to the beautiful

JODY BETH

and talented

KATE 

They are actually both very cute ADORABLE and very talented at what they do.

{Jody: Fashion blogger and freaking amazing at it check out her stuff-she has her own business as well...look look ^^^^!}

{Kate: She owns her own business making wire wraps, kid shoes, bows, etc.

Check her out too, K?^^^^}

How did I meet these ladies? Well this is how it went...

1. I was on instagram and found a giveaway. Never have I ever done one from instagram before. Saw one someone reposted from Jody. She was giving away a cute headband IVORY KATE {which is Kate's business, and actually named a headband after Jody that's why she was doing a giveaway from her blog--that info is all RIGHT HERE.

2. Did all the steps and what not and waited. I CHECKED when the winner would be posted and it was ME! WHAT THE... NEVER won anything before this way. SO EXCITED.

3. All I had to do was wait for it in the mail. Giveaways are great. haha and it CAME! :) Isn't it lovely? :)

{hooray!}

{gotta do the side view} 

{oh snap blue steel}

{oh my love it haha}

{seriously wheres karly when i need her.
not a pro at taking pics and my hair is having issues}

{oh well the beatles like it}

{guess  im just lucky haha}

4. I guess I never physically met Jody, but I do admire her talent and motivation to do what she loves. We need more women like that! :) And I have to give her credit for introducing me to those headbands from Ivory Kate. Ever since then I am a fan. 

5. Kate has family from Idaho Falls and is actually from here, I think? haha Anyways, she was visiting family and brought all those goodies from her shop with her. Of course I had to get some! And then of course friends needed some too so I got to buy lots haha. 

And come to find out she knew one of my friends. Dang. Small world. 

Should have gotten a picture with her because...

6. Oh I happened to leave my wallet where she was at. Seriously, so it took her awhile to get a hold of me since she didn't have my number. Had to meet Kate at Winco haha and get the wallet. Typical me. 

{SIDE NOTE: How nice of her to track me down right? :)}

It is kind of crazy how you meet new people and learn about their life and what they do in a random way. I have never been the "follow a blog, meet them" type of person. SHOCKER-- it kind of makes me nervous to do stuff like that. However, if you know me all to well I am fine in person meeting people for the first time. Maybe I am just more intimidated by these wonderful ladies. 

I guess you could say I stepped out of my shell. 

1 point Jordan

1,000,000 points world. 

It was worth it though. :) 

Thanks for the inspiration to do what I love Jody and Kate! You are great examples for many women in this world. Keep up the good work! :) 

I best be meeting more people like you. 

Much love,

JPB.
