Mark and I, once again, had a busy weekend...well really just a busy Saturday.
We started out by going to Mom and Phil's to celebrate Tracey's birthday. Mom and Phil have been away and this is the first weekend that we could all get together for her birthday lunch. We had a great afternoon with lots of laughs! Here are some shots of the day!

We came home for a quick change and then we were out the door again to meet up with Rhonda and Josh, Dolores and Shawn and Heather and John! Heather and John were in town all the way from New Jersey! It was so wonderful to meet them and spend time with everyone.
Rhonda made the reservations and asked for a round table - as it is easier to talk to everyone and there was going to be 8 of us. The lady on the phone asked if we were having a meeting and Rhonda said - 'Something like that'...well we ended up with a PRIVATE dining room!!! HOW COOL IS THAT!!! It was wonderful! We had doors at the end of the room that were closed and it was private and we could be loud and not disturb everyone else.
And we talked, and we talked and we talked! We arrived at the restaurant at 7:00 and didn't leave until 12:15!!! We closed the place! We were the last table in there. I am sure the staff were hoping that we would leave so they could go home!
There were also presents! Heather and John brought the ladies a present. The first is a key chain with a little shovel so that we can 'dig our own hole to China' and the second it is a mug with our blog header on it! How cool are BOTH of those gifts!! We were all stunned when we opened them! Thank you so much Heather and John for the VERY thoughtful gift!
Then there was a gift from Dolores - We had already received a gift from Dolores before and she was giving us another one. We are very lucky to have these wonderful people in our lives. From Dolores we received a beautiful bracelet and necklace in a very pretty bag! Thank you Dolores and Shawn for the VERY pretty gifts - you MUST stop giving them though...
I had a gift for Heather however it was left at our front door...It will be in the mail next week Heather!

You are one busy woman! Fun stuff though.
Wish I could have been at that round table. I would have loved to meet you all :0)
Sounds like lots of fun - particularly the private room! Can't wait to meet you both in person too!

We had a great time too! I love getting together with our bloggy friends.
Holy crap girl, you guys ROCK! We talked about what a great time we had the whole way home!!!! You are MORE than welcome to come for a visit down here!!!!!!! Can't wait for the weather to get better because we're going to head back up for a return trip! SOOOO great to meet you guys, can't wait to meet up with you again!
That looks like so much fun! I think we should have a Canadian bloggy summit. Somewhere. I would come for sure.
I love that mug. I think I would burst into tears of happiness if someone gave me something like that. Hormonal mess, am I....:-)
I was just reading about this on Dolores' blog. I think it's great that you all go together.
I want to start hanging out with your friends. You keep getting cool gifts. And a private table,.... we need a private restaurant. Always nice to get v.i.p treatment.
