North-Eastern Ohio Luncheon #2

I was just talking to Jenn earlier today (JennDigro) because she was a SWEETHEART and brought Mikayla home formula from Guat (long story). Anyway...I was saying how we should hold off on another luncheon until more babies came home. But then I was thinking I remember how encouraging it was to SEE and MEET the babies that were already home when we had the Christmas Luncheon. Soooooo.....who is up for another one???? Should we do it again? Like NOW? Same place since we are all familiar with it now? Just let me know the date that works best and I will set it all up again. I know that it will be at noon like the last one. Post the day of the week that works best for you. Lets get together and encourage those still waiting.
Hugs

Yes!!!! Tuesday's work best for me but I will make it work! We are going to be in Guat from 3/1 to 3/5 visiting our little petunia , so that would be the only time that it wouldn't work.

Hi, I'm in NEO and I'd love to meet others who are involved in Guatemala adoptions. I won't bring my kids home until at least summer, but I'd love to see yours and get to know you.

Since I'm fairly new around here, I don't know what "same place" means, so if you could give me a hint, I can try to join you guys.

Thanks!

YAY...we some new people wanting to join in on the yummy lunch! LOL. Tuesday would be JUST FINE. How quick are we wanting to do this? Like next week? Or would that be TOO quick. Let me know. And the "same place" is Max and Erma's right off of I-77 at Belden Village (canton). They took good care of us last time and I thought it worked out nicely. I will try to wait to get a better idea and a little more input and then I will pick a date and repost it.
Hugs

For cris...Janna will be 2 in March too!! I was around during your trials...I remember well. It would be great to meet you!! No body seemed to mind me being an old-timer at the first luncheon...I am an old timer in more ways that one! Almost 47!
