blogger lunch! WHOOHOO!

<span class=
super fun blogger Lunch today!
Ali, Michelle,me, Jes, and Laura!
and a herd of small children. 9 kids total.
way fun!
i got to meet Michelle and Laura for the first time!
and gosh it was like 7 degrees of separation. for sure.

Ali and i were best friends in high school , Jessica was my brothers best friend. and Michelle knew Ali and Jes. i found Michelle from my blog friend Lizzy, who knows Cara , who is in the same ward as Lizzy, Laura used to be in that ward. so she knows Lizzy too. and my blog friend Jenifer i haven't met yet. i haven't met Lizzy yet either. but it could totally happen. so since we made the connection that Jessica knew both me and Michelle, we thought it's be super fun to get together for lunch. and i recently "met" Laura online too. so Jessica invited her too so i could meet her.

Jessica organized it. and had everyone over for a fabulous lunch!
sweet pork salad? FABULOUS! loved it!
it was way fun to sit and chat with these girls i feel like i totally know. and fun to see kids that I've seen on the blogs for a long time.
the kids played great together. and we have plans to get together again soon!
WHOOHOO on that!

<span class=

who knew an umbrella was SO FUN!?Pierce is the ultimate cheese.

SO fun to meet you girls, and thanks Jes for having us over.
you are a fabulous party organizer! love that!

now maybe next time, if we do it again, my kids won't cling to my leg,
and sit with me the whole time.

Jes, i love all the color at your house. it's lovely! for sure. if I'm not careful i could be inspired to do something other than white. i showed lance the paint chip, and he wasn't too keen on it. BUT like i care, right? yeah not so much. thanks for a fun afternoon.

Ali, So fun to see ya. we need to get together lots before you move away! your boys are so handsome, and well behaved!

Michelle, so fun to finally meet you! and dang! i meant to bring you a prize for being my 50,000 hit. next time i see ya.( i hope i remember it.) and i want to meet Lizzy too!

Laura, wow, you are so fun. and who wouldn't love a friend that came , brought dessert, and vacuumed before she left. HOLY COW! you wanna come over to my house? heehee,oh we totally need to get together during preschool time! call me. Jes has my #. i should have given you my card.

AH! Kalynne, yeah the umbrella is purely a toy here, it never rains enough to use one. gotta love living in AZ.

wow, i'm so jealous of your lunch date!! i would love to have lunch with you and really get to meet you face to face!! :) you need to put together a blogger reunion and invite all your blogger friends over to meet and talk!! i'm in idaho, so you'd have to do it when i would be in az,....(which is prob. in 10 years since we're now moving to oregon)...but anyways, i can't wait to meet you someday and i loved hearing about this gathering of you and some new&old friends- what a fab idea!
