I'm almost packed, just need my shower and pick up some breakfast then get on the road. By Ruth's itinery, I guess I should try to catch up with them in the cafeteria.
Shouldn't be hard though - just follow the laughter!
Good morning!:cool:
Hello everyone! Is everyone out playing with their paper punches and paper and stamps and ink?:-D I just just wanted to say hi and let you know that I'm thinking of all of you!
I hope you are enjoying yourselves! I miss you gals! I wish I was there with you too! I hope to see you next time soon! Take care and have fun!

Hi Robin and ladies.
That was my first time in Olds and it won't be my last. I had such a great time, if even for just a day. I was even productive.
Thank you Robin for hosting it and it was wonderful to see everyone again.
Also, thank you to all the ladies that purchased the Stampscape Stamps.
mary will be so surprised at the interest in them.
Hopefully you got to play with them last night or today.
I had fun playing with them with Deb yesterday.
Looking forward hopefully to seeing everyone again at CC3, Christine and Adelie.
I'm nicely ensconced in my hotel room for the night, got the airconditioning going and am cooling down, aaahhh! :lol:
Robin, it's been a lovely weekend yet again and it was good to catch up with you all, those I'd seen recently, Adelee and Christine not for a while, and to meet Heather and Sandi. Thanks so much for organising and making sure we had a fun weekend.
Regina, so glad you could make it for at least one of the days and say a big thanks to Mary for allowing you to bring all her Stampscapes and thank you for 'enabling'!!!!!!! I may be poorer but I'm richer with getting to know you all more and being enabled to widen my horizons stamp wise!!
Gayle you're a star! Not only do you take pity on out of towners and provide them with GOOD coffee but you share all your knowledge and expertise, not to mention the equipment you brought with you. Thanks so much.
Diane, I really appreciated your company and the ride to and from Calgary. You're such a sweetheart and so generous with your time and friendship. Take care.
Deb, Geri and Linda, you gals are such great storytellers and it was a real pleasure to spend time with the 3 of you again. Enjoy your stamping, golf, grandkids and life, just let tomorrow take care of itself. I'm choked I missed out on the shoeboxes!
Tamara and Heather, treasure all those moments with your little ones. They'll all too soon be gone. You never know one of these days I might spy you on facebook if I ever sign up!!
Sandi, I'm glad you got to stay over! Thanks for sharing your lovely box idea.
That's it! I'm marking this weekend on my calendar for next year unless of course I happen to be spending time with my grandson in the UK.
PS Denise, sorry you didn't get to drop in. Another time, my friend Thinking of you.
Thanks, Robin for hosting such a lovely event. It was great to meet up with new friends and old. And for sharing your toys and knowledge so generously with everyone. Oh, and all your scraps too
PS Ruth, That's why you wanted a hotel room- air cond I hhope its a decent place.
I had a wonderful weekend. Thanks to all of you. IMHO I love, love, love the intimacy of the OO weekend. A whole table to myself (and 3 tables for others --- hmmmm -- yes Gayle, you needed all that space) and isn't it great that you could have it! What a terrific venue. Thanks Robin for getting it all together for us. It was terrific.
Oh, and I got home and all the siding and brick had been removed from my house and 90% of my new windows installed. But unfortunately, my four big main windows are all the wrong size :(:( so will have to deal with that tomorrow.

I'm in for next year too! I'll even book a room right now as well. Might as well. At least this way, I won't have to buy all new stuff for the night again! LOL
I had an awesome time. It was great to meet those who were new to me and wonderful to see old friends again!
Just posted the pics I took but I need to go back and find the one with Deb in! :oops: I hope I've got it!
Deb, I don't have one of you! I'm sure I took one but it's not on the 'card'. What the heck did I do? I'm so sorry 'cos it was a really good smiley one. Did anyone else get photos?

Ruth - I didn't get pictures. I was hoping that I could just steal yours and scrap them. {{oh, did I say that in my out-side voice}}. LOL
Happy to see everyone checking in so we know you are home safe.
Deb - I'll put you down - I know you are good for the $15.
Do you know what I forgot to do? Make Thank you cards for the friends that helped us so much by lending us beds and bedding for the family. I can use two of the purple ones, but one is a manly man who wouldn't appreciate the blossoms....so today I will have to make up something for him.
Looks like a beautiful day ladies, have a good one!

I'm not so sure that I will be. With what I'm doing with my renos - I might be completely broke by then. ;)
