This is the coolest thing ever. We have six cars in our driveway with six different license plates. So far, represented are:

MD
VA
IL
TN
CT
NJ

Niiice! Park all the cars side by side and take a picture covering all the rears. It would be like that Pink Floyd poster with the body painted girls. ;)
 
Jess and Paul it was such a pleasure meeting you guys! :). Thank you so much for all of your hospitality and for the TONS of fun! :hug: Mike and I are soooooo happy that we made the long drive here for the party! Sorry we had to leave so early this morning. Wish we could have stayed around longer. Next time we will be sure to have our calendar completely clear :yes: Btw it was very sweet of you to get up so early after such a late night to say goodbye,thank you :hug: :).

Rick,Char,Katie,Sherry and Amy it was really great putting faces to the names :). Hope to see all of you at another gathering sometime soon! You guys are a lot of fun! Btw BAW's sorry we never had a chance to tell you bye. We hope to make it to one of your CA gatherings sometime :).

HLB once again it was a blast hanging out with you! Mia wish you had been feeling well enough to come. We really missed you a lot! Keep getting better and make sure to get lots of rest :hug: Oh and Kelly Im so happy that I got to meet Jay. He is such a sweetie :cute:

So much U2 goodness :drool: Never have I seen such an amazing collection of so many treats :drool: Jess you dance so beautifully :love: Thank you for showing your tape.
 
The festival was fun. As predicted, the line going there was horrifyingly long, and to make matters worse, Kelly and Jay had to pull out of the line go get gas, so they didn't see me take the short cut. :( So we arrived a good bit ahead of them. Fortunately we all found each other though :up:

I had a rude woman make an unseemly comment about my costume, but for the most part we all had fun. It was really crowded today - I'll guess over 30,000 people.

The drive home was pretty bad. There was a backup on the highway around halfway back, so it took us well over two hours to get home. Rather than cook, we decided to have dinner (and ice cream) out.

As for the party, it was an awesome time, and it was great meeting everyone. Thanks for helping us to properly break in out media room. :D
 
Awww, Shannon! Thank you for your kind words, and it was an absolute pleasure to have you both! You are welcome to stay with us ANYTIME you are in the area. Hopefully we will be able to spend more time with you in the near future.

It was wonderful to have met you at long last, and we are honored that you made such a long trip! That goes for everyone who came from far and wide. :yes:

The BAWs took most of the pics, so I think we will have to wait until they upload them. :hyper:
 
BIG thank you goes out to Jess & Paul for all their hospitality!!!! Was awesome seeing everyone and it was great meeting new faces :) I had a blast :hyper:

ok... sorry so short... but late nite + long day in elements + loooooong drive = very sleepy cari.
 
Ugh, no wonder! We are pretty sleepy too, especially after all the wine at dinner. :yawn:

Goodnight!

P.S. Cari, thank you so much for coming, it was awesome to see you again! xo

Jess, Paul your house is just beautiful and you both did amazing work on it. It looks amazing! Such a beautiful view you all have too. I am envious. :love:

Haha... I bought those speakers back in 1991!!! I guess speakers are one of those things that it pays to spend some money on.

Thanks for all the compliments. We love the house and we love entertaining.
 
Cari! It so much fun meeting you finally! I hope to hang with you again in the near future! :hug:

oh how could I forget Roxy and Sterling.. I :heart: those cuties they were so much fun. I have a pic of Sterling on the sun porch after his many attempts to venture out with all of us.. :D
 
You guys, thank you for all the wonderful comments! :love: Amy, we would love to see you on a regular basis, that would be a great idea. Most of our friends are all over the country, so it's nice to have you close by!
