    Thanks everyone for coming! I liked the idea of having it at someone's house. It was much better than having it at a restaurant or a place that needed to be rented. Great visiting with everyone too!

    +1 on the house verses renting out a spot. This turned out to be a good one! only bummer was that I didn't win Molly as my raffle... oh I mean DOORPRIZE... /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif

    It was great to see everyone and meet some members I hadn't met before. Thanks Jeanette for hosting! I agree with the comments about having it hosted at a members home - it was much nicer that way.

    Great party. Glad we had such a good turnout.


    As for hosting - that was the easy part. Thanks to Chris for organizing and getting all the food. He (and Stephanie) also did a great job making themselves at home in the kitchen - getting things ready - while I was upstairs showing people the tanks. All in all - it worked out great.


    And while neither Jasmine nor Deanna won Molly for their door prize, Deanna may get to have my door prize for a week while Kelly and I vacation in Costa Rica at the end of the month!!!! Thanks for the offer Deanna - I may be taking you up on it. (Dave - I hope you're good with it also.....)

    albeit a bit off topic, but since we're talking about molly anyway!





    well for all those who missed out on Molly as a door prize, there is another brittany spanial that just hit the ames swap (off of facebook), that's for sale. His name is Buster, maybe Deanna and Dave want him? lol.
