Good morning!!! Okay, I just had to share more of our adventures at CHA!!!  Okay, our meet & greet is over, we had already been at CHA visiting LOTS of FANTASTIC booths! AND, the BEST part was that Sarah & I were invited to the GALA!!! THANK GOD we thought ahead & made sure we packed some dresses!!;) Here are a few more pics before we headed back to our room to get ready for the GALA!

Okay, the Gala was held @ the Conga Room Downtown L.A. & it was a BLAST!!! Since it was such a beautiful night, we decided to walk to the party!! WOW, all I have to say is that is was so hard to keep up w/Sarah & her LONG legs!! LOL..... I had to take off my heels to try & keep up w/this lady!! hahahaha! We thought we were lost at first then we came across several NICE L.A. peeps who guided us in the right direction! YEP, we had some nice person escort us right to the front door! Talk about great service in L.A.!;) Once we arrived, we came across some AMAZING bloggers & friends! Here are a few pics!

Can you guess who's legs these are???? LOL........

Now, being that Sarah & I don't watch this show, we had NO idea who they were!!! LOL..... Let me tell you, after seeing these AMAZING dancers, let's just say that I will MOST DEFINITELY be tuning into "So You Think You Can Dance"!!!! All I have to say is "WOW"!!! Here is a little sample of what we got to ENJOY that night!;) had I known this AWESOME entertainment was going to be there, I would've totally brought my GOOD video camera w/me that night! So excuse the "not so good quality" video of this!;)

Here are a few pics of Sarah & I w/a few of these AMAZING dancers!!! They were VERY SWEET in person!;)

Okay, this concludes our AWESOME night! Stay tuned for tomorrow for MORE CHA Fun! I will share w/you some highlights from our class that Sarah & I sponsored for Provocraft! Have a WONDERUL day my friends & THANK YOU for visiting me!;)
