Sparklecorn 2011: All Is Love


2011 Sparklecorn 160x300 Sparklecorn 2011: All Is LoveBefore we lay Sparklecorn 2011 to rest and set our sights on planning next year’s fabulousness, we of The Sovereign State Of MamaPop have one last thing we’d like to share with you. A love letter.

To all who attended this year’s party and helped make it everything wonderful that it was – this is for you.

Special thanks, as always, to our dear friend Ryan Marshall – the beating heart and soul of all Sparklecorn photo/video – and everyone at BlogHer who made this possible.
