August ‘09 Meeting

Hello everyone,

We had a great time at Leah’s house this month!  It was so nice of her to let us have the meeting there.  The pool was great!  The food was great!  It was just a great time.  I think everyone who came would agree.  :)  I didn’t get a group photo this time either but that’s o.k.  I think I got pictures of almost everyone.

Here’s the photos:

We will be having the September 12th meeting at the Nixon Library in Jacksonville from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m.  It was going to start at 11 a.m. but someone else is using the room right before us.  This will be our 2nd Anniversary meeting!!!  I was thinking of ordering pizza.  I’m going to have people vote on where we get the pizza.  I was going to get it from Pizza Hut in Cabot but I know some of you like Larry’s pizza and we have one in Cabot.  My mom is going to make a cake for us and if anyone else would like to bring other food to go with it that would be great!  I’ll be making some more Peach Tea and I will also bring dip and crackers again.  I still have plenty of plates, cups, paper towels and plastic utensils that I will bring too.  Also, we are going to try to have a yarn swap at this meeting.  So, be sure to bring any yarn you don’t want anymore.

Some of you wanted to know the brand of dip mix I brought to this meeting.  Here’s the web site:  www.peppersprings.com.  The name of the mix was Roasted Bell Pepper and I bought it from Kitchen Island in Cabot.  I’m not sure if they will close or not.  The last time I went in there they had a for sale sign in their window.  I hope they don’t close.  It’s a great store.

That’s it for this time.  See you next month!  :)

July ‘09 Meeting

Hey everyone,

We had lots of sweets at this meeting for some reason but I’m not complaining.  :)  We even had some people I know come for crochet lessons this time.  They did very good for beginners.  I hope they get to come to the next meeting. 

I’ve got lots of photos to show you from this meeting.  I didn’t get a group photo since a lot of people came and went from the meeting at different times. 

Here they are:

This last photo is of my two friends Judy and Mi-Ran and I with our mom’s.  It was a happy coincidence that we all happened to be in the same place at the same time.  This has never happened before so we thought it would be neat to get a photo of all of us together.  I just thought it would be neat to share it with all of you too. 
 
Our next meeting will be August 15th from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Leah’s house in Jacksonville.  It’s going to be a Pool Party and pot luck!  So bring your bathing suits and food.  :)  We’ll start sending around emails shortly about directions and who’s bringing what.
 
See you soon,
 
Opal
