When I saw WE Magazine linking into A Girl’s Gotta Spa! I was intrigued. Then came the moment when my mouth dropped open and I sat amazed to see that the trail ended upon a post on WE Magazine’s website called “101 Women Bloggers to Watch This Fall.” I found my name and A Girl’s Gotta Spa! listed and wanted to cry. For those who know me, you know that this beauty blog is my baby. It’s what has taken my life in a whole other direction full of wonderful and exciting opportunities. I can’t even begin to tell you how incredibly humbling it is to be noticed, but also to be listed among some other pretty amazing women.
Check out the list and discovering some other really fantastic women in blogging.



















Dear Shannon,
Thanks for sharing such a great blog! You definitely deserve being listed in 101 Women Bloggers to Watch for Fall 2008!
Appreciate your shout out too!
Have a Spa’ntaneous Day!
