4th Annual Pet Talk Calif. Bbq

I have some good news and some bad news. I guess I'll start with the good news first.

I might be going to London this summer! Alexa will be there for a few weeks this summer at a University and she is now looking into buying me a ticket out there to visit her when her program ends. I've never been to London before, actually I haven't been to Europe so I'm very excited and hope that everything works out.

The bad news is that if I go to London I won't be able to make the meeting because I just won't be able to afford it. However there will always be next year!

I'll update as soon as I know for sure. Right now she's looking at ticket prices and I need to start digging around the house in search of my passport!

Now that is THE BEST excuse for not attending the BBQ I could imagine.

How exciting for you both to have this opportunity and I say GO FOR IT.

You will be missed for sure - but when the excuse is for travel that will only broaden your horizon - I can't argue with that for one minute.

Hmmmmm, London or Cali. London or Cali. It's a no-brainer Laura. Have a great time......we will miss you.

How exciting - but we will miss you. It was so fun to meet you last year.

This may be a little off-topic, but this morning, when I was getting ready for work, I was getting a little dollop of mousse for my hair - and I noticed that if I work at it just right - I can make the dollop look like a peep.

commit me now.

Oh my, so now I have to have cans of mousse available for the BBQ so we can have a PEEP making contest.

See Laura and Alexis - what you will miss? I bet they haven't thought of this in London!!

I've been putting off posting this forever, but it's not going to be possible for Mark and I to come this year

I was SO looking forward to it, but we've decided to pay off all our bills first

I know you'll all have a great time, all I ask is please have one of those yummy slushies for me

Maybe next year!

I'm not happy about it either.
These were Christmas bills and we went a tad overboard on getting gifts for each other

Nothing for each other for Chirstmas this year

Anna, I'm really sorry that you won't be attending. However, don't forget that if we can arrange it, we'll get you on the phone and "pass you around"!

Would love to talk to you at least. Maybe you could PM Gini your phone number and someone can call by cell???
