...i am so excited...guess why?...i am taking off tomorrow morning, driving a few hours north and meeting a couple of blog friends for the first time!...jane, elaine and i are getting together for a couple of days and i can't wait!...☺...

...the three of us were supposed to meet at the des moines quilt show a few weeks ago but had to cancel due to that darn flu...but we promised to make other plans and we did!...

...tomorrow will be lunch, shopping (tammy tadd's anyone?) and supper and then on friday?...there is a quilting/sewing expo in the area!...i've been to lots of quilt shows but never a quilting/sewing expo - i'm really anxious to see what it's like...after the expo, a quick trip to ikea and then i head home...

...i usually pack too much for trips...even little ones like this...but after elaine sent me the vendor list for the expo (i printed it out to show mom and it's 5 full pages of vendor-goodness!)?...i think i've narrowed down what i'm going to take - would you mind looking at my list and telling me if you think it will be sufficient for 2 days of fun?...:

1. fresh pair o' undies
2. mr. paisley's gold card

...yep, that oughta do it...;)...enjoy the rest of your week and weekend and i'll see you next week with pics of our adventure?...

...jane and elaine?...can't wait to meet you!...thank you for making this happen...♥
