Hi you guys. Are newbies allowed to come as well? I live in Rockville, but I go to church in Alexandria. It would be a nice birthday present to meet you all. My bday is on the 11th.
Hi All! I'm in Silver Spring, MD and would love to travel over to the VA side to meet all of you! Is there still room? January 12th works for me! Thanks!

Ya know, there are some real shockers on there for me (Linen BG, what?!), but overall, I'm pretty happy with it. I think they got rid of some that really needed to go (sorry Frosty).

I'm not too terribly heartbroken! I didn't have any of the things retiring and didn't have intentions to get them either! Thank goodness my punches didn't retire! I love those things! I am sad about a couple of the stamp sets - Typeset alpha, Linen BG, the Monkey set! That doesn't mean I'll get rid of them though! I see monkeys and I think of my son who just loves them and I really like my typeset alpha but am looking forward to their replacements! Bring on the big new catty! LOL!

Hi Rhonda! Sounds great. I just told my DH about it, so now I'm going to write it on my calendar. I hope that the basketball schedule is not a problem that day.
vblevins - I'm ready! Didn't get to bake any cookies, but at this point I'm skipping the whole baking thing.

Have we talked about whether this is a day or evening event? I talked to hubby about going, and he said 'sure, have fun!' but now I'm thinking about all the ballet & tae kwon do carpooling that could leave him with. Most of my scrapbooking stuff is at night, so I think he's assuming that I'll still be home for all the ballet/tae kwon do carpooling we do on Saturdays.

In my spare time (ha!) I love to stamp, scrapbook,
{blog} and eat chocolate. Not necessarily in that order.
Vanessa, Thanks for hosting, but what a bummer for me!! I don't think I can make Jan 12th. What time is everyone meeting? Is the meeting in Manassas? I'll keep an eye on the thread just in case my sched changes.
I thought I'd pop in this thread. I live in Fredericksburg....not too close but not too far. I know I can't meet on the 12th but maybe for the next time.
I'll subscribe and keep an eye on the updates.
Nice to see a group forming, I usually stamp alone.
Hi ladies.....I hope you are all stll making plans on meeting on the 12th...I am totally excited about meeting everyone!
Does everyone have their new catty? Mine was sitting here after my trip and I love it! Whats everyone ordering first?
Okay! I don't remember seeing a date pop up but it works for me! YEAH Vanessa! I am looking forward to it and a list of what you need me to do in advance since I'm so close! You can email, PM, Call.... what ever means of communication works for you! I'm so excited!
I am in for the 12th. Just let me know the info :0)

Oh My Gosh! I just read that you're going to Naples Italy in June next year! Wow! I'm glad you gave me notice......I'll be so happy to carry your bags for you!;) Just let me know details a little closer! LOL! I loved, I mean LOVED Venice when we visited there! I'd go move there tomorrow if given the option! YOu're so lucky and I'm SO jealous!!
Hi gals..... I hope you all had a great Christmas! Anyone else have their dh feed their addiction?

I know we all have a million and one things to get done on a Satruday morning and afternoon- so would 4 work for you all? I will have snacks and such ......

4 sounds good. I would prefer just getting together and getting to know each other the first time, after that we can decide about a swap or something like that.
And no, I didn't get anything related to stamping for X-mas, but I got money! Now comes the hard part, deciding what to get!

I am liking the swap idea but here's a thought, since we all need new samples for our parties, open houses etc.. how about we all choose one set and make samples to swap with those?! That would increase our idea/sample baskets for our customers to view?! Any thoughts on that one?!!
Vanessa - 4 works great for me! I can clean, work out and get over there in plenty of time! I'm thinking my DH will be home from a TDY by then so it'll be okay! YEAH!
I'm still in Wisconsin and due home tonight! I can't wait to see what everyone else thinks!:mrgreen:

I think that is a good idea for the demos. I would opt not to participate since I'm not a demo and I wouldn't need all those cards. The good thing with this is that not everyone would have to do it.

Hi ladies! I just came across this thread and had to peek as I am in Fort Belvoir! Hope you don't mind a newbie here, I actually met Anjou months ago and I'm so excited that there's a group forming in our area! I'll keep checking to see if you all are getting together, I would love to meet up with you all on the 12th as well if it's still a go. Subscribing now, happy Sunday evening!

Hey there. I think I might be able to make it afterall. I'll keep you posted, but I'm so excited about the possibility!! I'm up for just meeting everyone rather than swapping at the first go-round. Just a thought.
Happy New Year Everyone!!! I hope you all spent your new years eve exactly how you wanted to.
Vanessa, I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that i can come on the 12th. Can you send me some details? I know you said 4pm, but can you let me know the location? I think Manassas is about 45 minutes for me but I'd like to mapquest it to be sure. And how long do you think we'll meet for? I'm trying to put this on the calendar between a few other things. Also, did we decide not to swap at this meeting?
Hello all- only 10 days until we all get to meet! YEAH! Maybe this evening I will tell dh about it-- its a great opportunity for him and ds to go see a movie- right?!
Anyway- I live in Manassas Park- I'm not sure if you guys know where that is--- if you are coming- pm me and I will send you my home number and my exact addy for mapquest/navi's.....
It seems that everyone is really wanting to simply get together this time- to meet and get to know one another- we can plan a swap from there- how does that sound?
