Where: Fairday's Blog! 

When: Friday, January 16th

Feature Guest: Mia from 25 Roses by Stephanie Faris

Notes: What a fun meeting! It was excellent to get to know Mia. Middle school drama can really get the emotions flowing, and Mia's idea to inspire love took some strange turns. We were sorry to hear that she's out of the makeover business, because Marcus could really use one- lol. We can't wait to hang out with Mia again soon!

Notes: It was so much fun to find out more about Eric & Stig from The Deliverers!

We also found out that Alligators and Owls have no problems with each other and actually quite enjoy each others company. It's Pete's turn next to tell us what he thinks about things, so be sure to keep an eye out for the next CBC meeting. And guess what? It's going to be hosted by us, the DMS! We can't wait ; )
