Woo hoo! Thank you, Kristie!

 

[brenda]

Looking forward to seeing you girls, there!

I forgot to mention - Christoph will be talking about teeth problems and any other medical info we are interested in. He has dealt with chins from the pet owner perspective and is very knowledgeable in treatments, so bring your medical questions!

 

[eroomlorac]

I think I'll be attending, too. Sounds like fun!!

 

[brenda]

It will be nice to see you again, Carol!

 

[Laurie]

I'm pretty sure Kristy, Carol and I will be riding together--most likely we're dragging Sandilicious with too. I asked off the Friday before so I'll be awake Woot! I'm really looking forward to seeing Gene again. I learned so much from him 2 years ago at the seminar. And as always I'm looking forward to seeing my other chin friends as well!

 

[brenda]

Can't wait to see you guys!

 

[designer chins]

In the raffle: a quart of colloidal silver!

 

[Laurie]

Is Wendy making a quilt for the seminar? LOL!!!!

 

[designer chins]

Wendy is making a quilt for the fall show, but will have to really buckle down and get to work to get one done for the seminar! :hair: I owe Vicki one, one of the ladies at school is having a baby so I'm doing a frog baby flannel quilt, and I have to do pillow shams for Pam to match her Queen quilt I did last fall. I've never done shams before! Cross your fingers!! Shams have to be done by MCBA Nationals-yikes!!

Thank you for asking though--I'm so glad you guys are still willing to buy quilt raffle tickets even though we've done a couple of them now.

Are you kidding? One of the best entertainments of the show (other than my Elvis impersonation) is listening to all the conversations about who's going to win what at the raffle. The quilt being the best 'conversation starter'. :rofl:

 

[Laurie]

How did I miss the Elvis impersonation? I'm going to be bringing baby Lisa chin with me to the seminar because I think she's a pretty dang good size and would like to hear what everyone else's thoughts on showing her are.

 

[designer chins]

Cool that Baby Lisa is coming--looking forward to seeing her and her "dang good size". I hope a few of my youngsters are dang good size and can come too! I need to see them under the show lights.

Now I am going to the fabric store...have to look at quilt stuff!:thumbsup:

 

[brenda]

I'll put together something from the store for a raffle prize. Not sure what yet. Any suggestions?

 

[Laurie]

Same stuff as you had at the show! Don't let Tawana but any tickets in for it though because I wanted it last year and she got it!

 

[designer chins]

You don't want me making suggestions--they are always the same & include some hot man that comes with the basket! heeheehee!

 

[eroomlorac]

Same stuff as you had at the show! Don't let Tawana but any tickets in for it though because I wanted it last year and she got it!

Hey, give Tawana a break. That makes up for the year she won NOTHING.

 

[Laurie]

Um hello! I put 75 bucks in the raffle buckets last year and got zip! LOL! But I had wonderful company that's for sure!
