Convention-Talk about a WOW!

Well I just got back from my very first Stampin Up convention and it was unbelievable. I don't think there are enough adjectives in the world to describe how wonderful it was. I can't believe I did it! I left my baby girl for 5 nights. Of course she was fine with my DH. It wasn't cheap. I spent even more money while I was there. And with all the fabulous ideas that I came home with well I know I will be spending even more. Shhhh don't tell hubby! I am so grateful to have had the opportunity but I am so exhausted. Sara has wanted to play all day and I have not been much fun. We did watch a movie (Snow White) and went swimming in the pool.

Back to convention...I made some great new friends and I hope to be able to go back with them again. Our group consisted of 11 fun and fabulous ladies. One of them was Wendell's cousin and one of my favorite people on the planet, Denise. I actually got to know her because of the decor at Eric & Chevon's wedding. All SU of course. I was already in a group that involved my friend Marsha and when I signed up I felt obligated to sign up under Marsha. Marsha really doesnt do anything with it anymore but I got several of my fabulous stampin friends because of her so I am grateful. Howver there is always a part of me that wishes I was in Denise's downline. She is such an inspiration all of the time. I love to go to her house. She has the best basement ever. I am really just rambling because I am so tired so I may have to continue this post another day.
