You’re Invited
This has been going on long enough. I think it’s time that we should meet. You didn’t show up at the top of the Space Needle on Valentine’s Day like I’d hoped so Beth, Karen, Karli, Heather and I have been plotting something a little more exotic in hopes of enticing you out of your little computer rooms and nursing loungers.
None of us are gonna be able to make it to the “big show” this summer but we’d still like to get together with a few of our bloggin’ homies. So, if you plan to be in Boise, ID on the evening of Saturday, May 20th and you’d like to join us for some dinner and child-free girl time “Bloggirl” style, email me and let me know so we can reserve a seat for you.
“Idaho?!” you ask. “It can’t be! I LOVE Idaho! I’ve been searching for the perfect opportunity to abandon my family for an evening and spend some quality time in the potato capitol of the US.” Well, call me your fairy-ever-lovin’-godmother. Bring me four mice and a pumpkin because May 20th is your lucky day.
Caryn Says:
Sounds like much fun! I’ll check the dates. I should be around.

Here’s to hoping nobody is actually a dirty old man

So cruel! I’m originally from Idaho and will be returning to the home territory a week later on the 27th. I shall miss the fun and excitement, but I know we all want to see pictures!

Well, I was JUST there and won’t be back until August. I grew up there, so who is it that has connections there? Always curious if I actually know some of you bloggers and not even know it!

Cee Says:
It sounds like a lot of fun. I would love to abandon my family for the potato capital, but sadly, they would track me down and drag me back home.
When you move the show to Disneyland I will bring the pumpkin!

Drat. I’d love it, but a plane ticket from Oklahoma to Idaho is just too steep for this tightwad. But I’ll be jealously waiting to hear all the details of the fun you girls have.

I saw your blog mentioned in the BabyTalk magazine that I received today. The article was about Blogging Mamas. Since I’m a blogging mama as well I thought I’d come over and see yours.

How fun would that be!!! Too bad I’m stuck going to California…
Since I can’t go, I’ll live vicariously through all the good details of the visit.

May 20th?! That’s my birthday! And, hey, I’ve been to Iowa before, and that was pretty cool (in a “wow, this is much more diverse than I ever imagined it would be” kind of way). I bet Boise, ID is pretty funky cool too. Alas, I live in NH and can’t afford (financially or time/space/continuum wise) to hop a flight to Boise for a night. Oh well. I hope you get lots of affirmative RSVPs and y’all have a groovy time!
Love your blog!
Amy

Ya, I know I never comment on your blog…I’m a very bad commenter.
I am an Idahoan….(hey that gives me a blog idea…sorry, got off track.)
EmLouisa is like the coolest girl ever and one of my best friends. We live minutes from each other. I’m hoping to make it Saturday night, but still waiting for some details to work out.
