PAAT them on the back...
What a weekend... you just can't even imagine the energy put forth in an event like this... The "Dream Team" leaves "no stones unturned" when it comes to hospitality & organization, not to mention a little entertainment!
Paper Arts A Thon ROCKS!!! These girls are AMAZING. Jackie sent out an e mail last night that sums up 20 hours of paper crafting & amazing food & fabulous make n takes so well. You can read about it here Download ...lets just say $11205 is pretty darn good for 50 gals who love paper!!!
I wish you all could have seen Amy's face when she won the bid for kal's Love Life book( thanks Kal!).
The "Cry Babies" won the bid on a two night, three day scrapbooking weekend at our cottage, with me as chief cook & bottle washer,hot tubbing, many coffee avec's, not to mention a class thrown in for flavor!... This event is something you ALL should think about for next year...so worth the tiredness for a day & look how successful it was! Thanks Dream Team!!!!!
Yay for the dream team and yay for paper arts and yay for us! can't wait for that weekend... I will be helping you out with a smile on (as long as you let me get some sleep and have some avec)
