We have a conference hotel - you can now book your rooms!

[Dawn Torrence Ireland]

I'm guessing there will be about 75 to 100 members there. Definites so far are:

Me and Craig
Stephanie and family
Barbara and family
Tara and family
Corin and family
Kara and family

Who else????

Once this newsletter hits postal mailboxes and e-mail then we'll get a much better idea who will be attending.

[StephanieOlivarez]

I think that no matter who attends----we will have a great time!! I would love to see ALL members attend. But times are hard, I understand that.
It just will show that no matter what---we are a family that has been on this CDH journey and will only continue to support each other and other's who are not able to come to these great events- we are all in this together. Taking each step - together.

[Dawn Torrence Ireland]

Amen, Stephanie, you are so right! And we will be videotaping it so that members who can't attend can still feel like they were there.

[Damon andSharonknott]

you lot have me LOL
good luck with dress hunting.

Just face it, we're all going to look like giant marshmallows drifting across the dance floor!

[karahess]

We are planning on attending the Friday conference events and the Angel Ball. It's iffy as to the golf tournament. It's also iffy as to the Thursday evening meet and great. All depends on when Chuck can bug out of work.

[Dawn Torrence Ireland]

Bite your tongue, Kara! I intend to look like an ice cycle... oh those are clear and not white. There is nothing skinny and white for this analogy! LOL.

Ok, back to a show of hands who is attending...

[Corin Nava]

I'm coming! Its looking like it will be me, Nate, Jeanne (MIL), and Makayla. We will be there for the meet and greet, conference, and nate and I will be at the ball. I don't think we will be able to stay for the golf tournament.

[DanielleKessner]

I just had to post and tell you all I am almost in tears. I wish SO badly I could come
Even if I would add to the 'giant marshmallows' in attendance! lol I can't wait to see pictures and hear all about it. One year I will be there. I had plane tickets in my hand one year and it got cancalled so I didn't end up coming over at all.

I have to go get some tissues now

[Dawn Torrence Ireland]

Yeah, I get to meet Makayla and Jeanne too! I'm looking forward to seeing you and Nate again, Corin.

Danielle.... I feel the same way every year when you e-mail about the Aussie conference dates. And then when I was going to that wedding 2 years ago in Australia that got canceled (I don't think they ever got married).... we have the worst luck with traveling to each other's countries! So many events and conferences and I told Tara yesterday that I should just get a job for an airline so I can fly for free! lol. My mom wants to go to Australia so badly and I want to bring her with me a to a conference - but she won't fly. A month on a ship is not going to happen! lol. But some day I will get there and you will get here!!!
