These didn't make it on the Bean Talk blog...

We can't have ALL seriousness at CHA or we would got crazy!  Ahoy there matey!

The whole crew...we look thrilled, don't we. :)  Karen - what's up with that face?  Thank you chicas...appreciate everything that you do!!!!

Clean up....you think I'm happy?  Actually I was thrilled because our crates showed up right away!  Last time, it took 3+ hours for them to arrive and we sat around waiting and waiting.  Teardown went soooo quick in Chicago!  I had lots of help too - thanks girls!!!! 

Brown paper scarf?  Little loopie at the close of the show?  Check out Kimber in the background.  Peace!

And here are a couple of cards of mine that didn't make it into the booth.  Not a big deal.  I would rather use the team projects before mine.  I always make some to stick in here or there but we didn't need these. 

I really enjoyed the show this time.  It's always a TON of stress but I had more fun giggling with the girls this time.  Poor Kristen and Carson over at Lilybee had to put up with us during set-up.  During the second day, I burped out loud and I burped soooo loud that everyone was shocked.  I was even embarassed....so much so, that I bent down behind Jen to hide so that the Kristen and Carson wouldn't know how disgusting I am! 

If you looked at the Bean Talk blog then you saw this pic of Jarred...

I kinda feel bad for this guy.  We had SOOOO much fun harassing him!  It was our last night in Chicago....show was done...no stress...just good fun.  I decided we were celebating at Gibsons.  Mind you, Gibsons is a bit pricey - $42 for a steak.  Anyhow, this poor guy.  We (the crew) all decided we were going to guess how old he was, so everyone wrote a number on their hand.  The next time he came back to the booth we asked him how old he was.  He said "take out a sheet of paper and write down your guesses".  We all showed him our hands - I think he was beet red (low lighting - couldn't really tell).  Anyhow, we just had so much fun on that last night!

Thanks for visiting!
