Back from Orlando!

Hi everyone, I'm back from Orlando!! I had SUCH a great time! The weather was so nice, sunny and warm. It was in the mid to upper 70's pretty much every day!!

As you know, I spent the weekend with my friend Silke. She and I have been emailing each other practically every day for almost a year and we finally got to meet! What a sparkly personality (her screen name really fits her)! Love ya, Silke!! I had a BLAST with you this weekend!

What I hadn't mentioned in my other posts, because I didn't want to jinx anything, is that we were also meeting up with some other stamping friends...Deb Felts (incredibly sweet!) and her upline Kathy (oh my word, what a hoot!..one of those people with a contagious laugh), Silke's friend Penny (totally fun to hang out, a real sweetheart), AND....I finally got to meet one of my fellow dirty girls, someone I totally admire, Jerri Jimenez! As soon as I knew Silke and I were registered for the seminar, I emailed Jerri to see if she'd be free to meet up with us for dinner one night. I was SOOOOO excited when she said yes! She's every bit the sweetheart I knew she'd be! Love ya, Jerri!!

Here's a picture of me and Silke at Regionals:


Here's a picture of all of us at our table. Standing from left to right in the back is me, Silke, and Penny. Sitting from left to right in the front are Kathy and Deb.


The next picture is when we went out to dinner on Saturday night to Don Pablos to meet up with Jerri. Standing from left to right in the back are Deb, Penny and Kathy. Sitting in the front from left to right is Jerri, Silke and me.


Guess who else I saw at Regionals??....my friend and upline Carol (from PA!) and my up-upline Tina. I had no idea they were going to be there, it was a total surprise!! I was at the registration table getting my project packet and when I looked to my left, there they were registering at the same time!! Hehe! Here's a picture of all of us. Carol is on the left and Tina is on the right.


Here's a picture of Penny in a dreamy handbag and shoe store. I love this picture of her!

On Sunday, Silke and I went to Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. No, I didn't get her on a roller coaster, BUT, we did go on the Jurassic Park water ride and it had a HUGE drop. We got totally soaked! It was funny how we watched other people come down that big hill and they didn't seem "that" wet....and yet when we went down, we got SOAKED! LOL! Anyway, here's a cute picture of Silke in front of the Spiderman ride.


...and here's a silly picture of me with Scooby and Shaggy. I couldn't help it, I had to get a picture with them...I love Scooby Doo!


So, now I'm back in PA and I've got a ton of work to do...back to reality, huh?

Have a great day and thanks for visiting!!
