New to SITS? Welcome!! Go read this to get started.
Happy Labor Day, everyone! Hard to believe the summer of beaching, picnicking, and enjoying ice cream is officially coming to an end. Although we are sad to see our carefree days go, there is plenty to look forward to this fall on SITS.
We are kicking the season into high gear with several fabulous events…
For starters, Bloggy Boot Camp is in full swing, as we host one event per month through November. Tickets for Philadelphia and Austin are now sold out. If you are interested in getting on the wait list, send an e-mail to tiffany@bloggybootcamp.com.
And don’t miss out on the final conference we are hosting before the new year: St. George, Utah! Registration is still open.
In addition to our conference series, we have tons happening here in blogland. You can expect several fantastic educational challenges, and even a giveaway or two, starting with this…
A Turquoise Sky Washer and Dryer from Electrolux, valued at $ 4,000!!
Interested? Then be sure to check back with SITS this week and next as we explain how you can get involved with our Back to Blogging event and qualify to win this beautiful washer and dryer.
Finally, as a way to keep our momentum going and engage our community on BlogFrog, we’ve enlisted the help of the below SITStahs for the month of September. If you don’t know them yet, stop by their blogs and say hello. They’ll be popping up everywhere as the month goes by.
Maker of the cute and the yummy, patron of the odd & the offbeat, erstwhile cake sculptor and chocolatier, Jenn Erickson of Rook No. 17 describes herself as both punk and preppie, sweet and spicy, and irresistibly drawn to shiny, glittery objects. Teacher of the pastry arts, student of life, avid reader, collector, and decorator, this crafty bird has worn many hats and played many roles, but her favorite remains that of “Mama” to her two little girls. Connect with Jenn on Twitter @rookno17.
Jennifer is the mom of a just-started-kindergartner (sob) and a toddler. She writes about navigating the world of being a mom, surviving the ups and downs of being married to her high school sweetheart, balancing a full time job outside of the home, and managing life’s daily challenges at her blog, Momma Made It Look Easy. Sometimes she tries to tweet @jwilliams057.
Kim Luu owns a financial management and consulting firm in Newport Beach that manages pension plans and 401ks. She also runs the insurance division for an independent full service brokerage firm. She has extensive experience working with small business owners for over 25 years. Kim volunteers frequently for children and senior causes. You can find Kim at Money and Risk, a personal and business finance site, and on Twitter @moneyandrisk.
Sunday is the frazzled woman behind the screaming Banshee mask. She is also a mom of two special boys, Samuel age 7 and Noah age 5, both diagnosed on the severe end of the autism spectrum. Sunday’s blog, Adventures in Extreme Parenthood, is a window into her family’s daily trials and triumphs in the world of special-needs parenting. She can also be found tweeting her Banshee heart out on Twitter @xtremeparnthood.
Looking forward to another great season of blogging!

Oh the fall! I love it so much.
That washer and dryer looks pretty awesome, and if I wasn’t 21 and still living with the ‘rents–who are amazing by the way– I’d want them for myself!
Good to see more goings on in the blogfrog. I really need to be more active there myself.
hope everyone has a great day today!
OK – I just had to visit again to look at that washer and dryer …
I had some really great things happen this summer, but I’m SO happy to see it end. It’s time for something new.
I’m excited for the new things coming up. Sounds like you all have been busy!
So about that washer and dryer………..?
Ok, I’ll have to wait.
Some neat blogs listed above, I’m eager to check out.
Have a great Labor Day all!

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Austin Tickets can NOT be sold out! Tell me it isn’t true. Bloggy Boot Camp Austin tickets were supposed to be my 26th Birthday present =(
Not good news. Not good at all. On to the waiting list I shall go.
Happy Labor Day! Come on by for an idea on honoring our military heroes for 9/11.
Hope everyone is enjoying a wonderful Labor day! =]
Don’t want this weekend to end. Heading into a REALLY busy Sept for my whole family. Hope everyone is getting some much-needed family time and R&R today.
I’m so glad that I found SITS. I’m learning so many new things and reading lots and lots of new blogs. And now, a chance to win a gorgeous, high-end washer and dryer that would not fit my budget. Bonus!
