Disney Social Media Moms Celebration “On-The-Road” Recap

Last month I had the opportunity to attend the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration “On-the-Road” event held in Philly. I attended the event with two of my blogging friends; Esther of Coupon Cutting Mom and Lindsay of See Mom Click. There were bloggers there from all over the country. I heard even as far as Kentucky! Here are some of the highlights of that day:

This is how ALL the tables were decorated at the venue. Isn’t it adorable?! We ended up with Pixie Dust.

We were treated to breakfast.

We were also given a trading pin and encouraged to trade so we could meet each other. This is the one I ended up with and it’s my first trading pin ever! (I know, I’ve been living under a rock)

I met Gary Buchanan, he’s Walt Disney World Social Media Managing Editor (and a bit of a celebrity). He’s quite the character and knows how to infuse his happy Disney vibes on others.

Treats that are just too pretty to eat.

More treats!

I won this awesome chair by the KristiG company. Perfect for my baby girl!

This special guy made an appearance at the end.

The swag we went home with. My favorite are the prints we received; “I Have Seven Followers” and “I Don’t Tweet, I Quack”.

Some of my favorite tips and quotes from the event:
