Ooooo, you could not sit by my DH at a game. He hates the Braves.
Hope you can make it when we have the SCS gathering. It would be great to me the Validated One!

It was probably a guy I go to church with - I don't think he misses one Cards/Braves game! LOL Even if the Braves aren't playing you should try to catch a game in the new Busch stadium in its maiden year.

Glad your game was more pleasant.
We those battery operated fans to take but we didn't need 'em! I am taking them this year just in case!

Are you kidding? You seriously won't have to drag me out to play at all. I might run you over trying to get out the door fast enough to meet everyone. LOL

If we do it in July I totally might be able to go!!!! I can't believe it! I will have to drive about 4 hours from Indiana/Illinois but I will soooo do it to meet my fav SCS girls!
I just told DH and he looked at me like I was an alien, he says "Have Fun" my reply..."I will b/c you and the kids are going to saty with your mom and I'm going to stamp!" Then he says why don't you just fly, why drive, it won't cost that much...I LOVE THAT MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can try to come. I'll have to see if I have a vacation during those months, see if I can get the money together to come, figure out a reason for everyone to go 'on vacation' up there or at least something fun for my 7 yr old to do. LOL I'd have a lot to try and come up with but if I was able it would be great to meet everyone!

Misty...There is tons of stuff for your 7 yo to do...If you bring yours then I can bring mine too...We will keep the Dad's busy! LOL
There is the Science Museum, the Kids Center at St. Louis Mills...and tons more. I will post and share more info later.
No way, I would get to meet BETH?!?! Just kidding! It would be super fun, but there's no way I would know for sure for awhile. Depends on dh's work stuff and when you schedule it. I don't really know what busy times are for him yet, but we usually do go for a long weekend in the summer. (and if I had something like this to go to it would be SOOOO much more bearable) If you can't tell, I do not enjoy trips to my in-laws.
Since lots of people will be going to SLC for the convention in July, could we somehow tie them together? I could not do both, but I want to come so badly!!!!
OK I might just be able to do this! I'm only about 3 hours away, I could drive that! Just need to talk to my DH and work out details when we know them! Anyone else in Central IL (or south along 55) wanna carpool?
