Cheers... to great guys!!!

Yes, there are still some good ones out there!

This weekend two of my friends and I had a fabulous time at a scrapbooking convention. On our first day we had an amazing - but exhausting - time traversing the huge amounts of booths. When we got to the friend's house that we were staying at, her husband (great guy #1 of the weekend!) made us some very pretty blue drinks! The name of which won't be mentioned here... ahem. Then he made us cosmopolitans and finished up with chocolate covered cherries (also a drink). After we were sufficiently relaxed we took out our knitting and had a great time just kicking back.

The next morning we went to the local cafe. It was the greatest place with an amazing atmosphere. We had breakfast and coffee there and were off to another day of fun at the convention. We had a little mis-hap, though, only one block away from the convention center! Parking was already full in the garages, and we were searching for a place when it happened. My friend was driving, and I must say did an amazing job at keeping her wits about her!!! :) The front bumper of the car was tore away leaving the metal part of the bumper hanging by a thread. The man that we collided with wasn't exactly nice.... but then enter great guy of the weekend #2!! He was a vendor heading in to the convention center. He stopped and helped us, when nobody else did! He ripped off the fiberglass part that was left, and wired up the metal part of the bumper for us!! He was our hero!!! Dan, you're the man!! We were able to drive the car home safely without any trouble.

It is refreshing to know that there are still people out there that are truly caring.

I must also mention a thank you to my husband for watching the kids so that I could get away.
This was the first time in about 7 years that I was able to be away overnight without kids!
All in all it was a really fun weekend. I came home with some delicious papers and other goodies.
Cheers!!!!
