What do y'all think?

Should we plan something? I'd sure like to get together!! How about in November? It is adoption month, might be nice!

Do any days work/not work? I'd like to NOT bring my 2 year old (nudges Tara) but I don't care if you all want to bring your kids.

thoughts??

Sure let me know, if I'm off I'm game.

Saturdays I am usually good, it is Sunday mornings that are out for me. That said Oct 28 is Granddad's 85th Birthday so we have a Shindig for him and Nov 4 is our conference for work... otherwise it is usually safe!

WE HAVE A DATE!!!


November 18th. (Saturday)

Tara and I discussed and came up with this day! Since she is coming from the north, and my brother lives in that area anyway...how about the Olive Garden for dinner?

Let's make it an early dinner so we have lots of time to chat!!


I'm sooo excited!!!

[taramayrn]

I'm totally game!! I can't wait.

[CanadianMommyToBe]

I will try but that is my Mom's birthday, so I am not sure what will be planned. I would SO love to meet though. I just directed a friend to this forum too so she might join in if that is okay?

[Leigh131313]

of course it's ok!!



but I can't believe that day might not work for you!! Would Sunday be better?


Tara? does sunday work for you?



I can't believe it's a day you might not be able to come!!

[taramayrn]

Um if push comes to shove Sunday would work, but I do have to get up early for work Monday morning.

[Leigh131313]

Carrie? What are your thoughts?

Tara, dh works sunday night, so it would be tough for us too....I'm hoping Carrie can work saturday out

So I talked to my Mom about this last night and she was like "GO!" so I think we can do Saturday and maybe I will do lunch with her or do something on Sunday - either way, she thinks it is important for me to do this! This is very exciting because when we first started down this adoption road I really didn't feel like I had her support and now she is obviously in!

So lets do Saturday at the Olive Garden - 6:00? That works for me. Do we want to limit this to the "girls" or should we bring spouses? Not sure if my hubby would even come but thought I should throw it out there!

Carrie

[Leigh131313]

oh my dh is SO not coming!!

this is about ME!!!! lol


But I don't care if you guys bring your spouses, friends whatever....

6 works for me.

Carrie, do you want to make reservations? (since you live there)

I will be a party of ONE




getting excited....not just about you guys....i flippin LOVE the olive garden, and we NEVER go..



ETA - if the next satuday works better, i would be open to that...not sure if Tara works tho

I asked hubby if he interested in coming - should have seen the look on his face! LOL You would think I asked him if he wanted to wax his eyebrows or something! LOL Anyways he is happy to stay at home so I will be a party of ONE as well. I am good with that!

Can do - do you know what location/area that we want? There is more that one location in Calgary!

Either day works for me, talked with my siblings and they want to do the birthday thing on Sunday as well so it is not an issue for me.
