This was a professional event I volunteered at today. It was beautifully organized and a great venue for mom business owners. Mamapreneurs is a professional organization for moms who own businesses to plan, connect and grow their businesses. With the nature of my business, I didn't have a booth. This was more geared towards those with products and services specifically for families with younger children. I'm so glad I volunteered.
MOM SHOP 2:

Portland-area mothers are changing the face of business for the better: they
are creating companies that enrich the lives of families, helping to build
stronger communities, and they are forging collaborations with fellow local
businesses to offer top-notch goods and services to all. Mamapreneurs, Inc. is
proud to showcase the amazing professional services and high quality products
offered by local family-owned businesses in the second annual The Mom Shop.
At The Mom Shop, you'll be able to find excellent professionals and top notch retail items all in one place while supporting your local economy.
Epilogue:
My family came to pick me up. They had attended First Communions at our church and then joined me around noon. The Mom Shop 2 event was at Oaks Amusement Park. We had a great time with our limited-rides bracelets for $11.75 - less the Mamapreneurs' discount.
The tilt-a-whirl nearly had Austin (4) hurling chunks on me. The rider operator knew the look, stopped the ride and let them off. The ride resumed. I made the mistake of staying on. It took me another three hours to recover from the nausea. The children stuck to the tiny kids' rides for the rest of the visit.
Between the corndogs, ice cream and other rides, we all needed a nap after such a big day.
