Oh how sweet Heaven sounds when you have sent a loved one there.
I don't think any of you need to change ANYTHING...your accents just endear you more to us!We love you just the way you are...(sung in my Billy Joel accent)
awww, Lynn, you beat me to it!!! I was gonna say the EXACT same thing!
Hi Randi, I wanted so badly to come to the last one; I just couldn't get my back to cooperate! It sounds like you had sooo much fun. I haven't really stamped lately and really miss it. Last night I tried stamping luggage tags for our trip to Cozumel and I felt like a beginner again! Luckily, one of my customers placed an order for $180 in June which is the only reason I'm still active! I just looked on the calendar. I will have to find a babysitter (that weekend is deer hunting season, aka single parenthood weekend). :twisted:
I may have to take you up on that offer. My darling husband said they may change up the deplopyment cycle. So he could leave as early as sept. oct. time frame. Sucks, Cause I am taking on my Godson while his mommy deploys at that time, But good it is during the school year. He wont miss any birthday except mine, and he would miss our Anniversary again. Everytime he deploys he misses one of our anniversaries. But there is nothing saying he will go at this time.

I'm sure they could round up a few of thier friends to help if needed. Just an idea since I know some couldn't make it before do to child issues.
Wow...that would be a great idea for those with small kids. That's a great idea!!!

I like that idea, Randi! Quote: Originally Posted by skydiverwife How about Midwest Splitcoast Stampede. Since we are in the Midwest, that would count.
I like it but it is a bit long...How about MW Splitcoast Stampede?
Splitcoast MW Stampede (not really diggin it) The Midwest Stampede (ummm, not sure) The MW Stampin' Stampede (this I like) The Midwest Stampin' Stampede (a bit long but catchy)
Ok there's my big thoughts of the day...now I better shower and then come back for some judging fun times! :rolleyes:
We are checking into something permanent. I have a little cousin that is 15 that is prego and she's not interested in keeping the little babe so we are going to try to adopt the baby. She's only 2 1/2 months along though so she could change her mind.
Oh how awesome...I pray it all works out for you and Kevin! Has Little D heard about it yet? I am sure he would be an awesome big brother.
I think the idea of a babysitter (or two) would be quite awesome. My boys will most likely be with me & that would be easier for DH. Plus, I would love to have them nearby. Hopefully, this works out! Carla let us know what the girls think about it...they will be paid that is for sure. :mrgreen:
I would love to join this time ~ I'm in Troy, IL. I was unable to attend the last one because I had my 4th back surgery in December still wasn't up to doing much. I'm still having a lot of problems, but hopefully everything will be better in November. I haven't been stamping very much lately due to the back problems, but would love to get back into it ~ it's amazing I'm still an active demo! We are leaving for Cozumel on Friday so I won't have net access for a week, but will check the thread when we return.
Christi, have a great time in Cozumel and don't get too hot! :cool: We were in Riviera Maya the last week in June for my son's wedding. A few people went over to Cozumel from Riviera. It was soooo beautiful but it was certainly hot and humid when were there. It was hard to dress up for the wedding after living in a swimsuit for days. Enjoy your trip, Joyce
Thank you Joyce! This will be our first big family trip (our daughters are 9 & 5). Neither they nor my husband have been on a plane so it ought to be interresting. My grandparents are also going so we will have "babysitters" so my husband and I can enjoy a couple of evenings by ourselves. I checked the weather and so far it looks like it is going to rain and/or be cloudy the whole week we are there. :( I'm sure we will still enjoy our stay though!
Christi, we had a rain forecast for us too for the whole week (according to the weather channel) but all we got was a few drops the second afternoon. It was cloudy our first 3 days but it was still hot. You really don't want the sun to shine too much or you will fry. Be sure to take plenty of sunscreen. Several people in our group didn't think they needed it and were peeling before we even left Mexico.

What about:

Isn't it? I just started playing around. Moving the words and that one came up! Guess I got lucky. Cuz nothing else is going smoothly today. Just keep running into one obstacle after another! Maybe it's the temperature. It's starting to go up again. And I have to back out in it! Well... here I go again!
Catch ya all later!

Thats a nice idea. Anyway, Illinois Splitcoast Stampede sounds weird.

Thanks for the prayers Autumn and we will definately have fun in Cozumel! Did you go to school in Collinsville? You look so familiar. I graduated in 1990.

No haven't told Little D yet, don't want to get his hopes up, KWIM? He really really wants a baby bro or sis. :rolleyes:

Your welcome I am happy to prayer for anyone in need. Yes I went to school in Collinsville. Went to private school up til the 9th grade then went to public High school which was definately different for me to say the least. LOL I graduated in 1989. But since I can't see your picture I don't know if you look familiar or not. LOL ;) :mrgreen:

I don't think I noticed that I need to add anyone else...but if I missed anyone just pm me.
WELCOME MELISSA! We would be happy to have you join us in Nov.
I know exactly where you are coming from in Germany. It has been a long time since I was there but I loved it so much! Coming home was bittersweet for me but happy to be in the good 'ole USA!
Thanks for the welcome. I am so happy to be home! And now I have DSL!! <back flips> Och! Drat! I am getting to old to do those back flips! :twisted:
Germany was okay. I enjoyed traveling around Europe, I just didn't care for Germany too much. The food and language just didn't suit me. Now if I had been in France or Italy! LOL!
Oh, and it is awesome to have a 24 hour grocery store!! YEA! <back flips again> :p
I think I like SCS Midwest Stampede. I put in a request to staff meeting for the room at the church. I can add the Children's Church play room also if that is what you ladies are talking about.
