GATHERING OF FRIENDS



 




The annual gathering of some of the ladies in this Yahoo Group was the past few days.  We met on Sunday for lunch at Applebee's and then shopped in three craft stores.  Ending with the evening meal at The Machine Shed.  Members from California, Minnesota, Nebraska and Iowa were represented this year.
 
Monday  we were welcomed at Outstamping Designs in Valley Junction (South edge of Des Moines).  One of the ladies there gave us a class and we made four GORGEOUS cards......pictures will be posted tomorrow.  Lunch at "The Longest Yard" bar and grill and evening meal at a great Italian place.
 
Tuesday it was back to Outstamping Designs to do some more playing and when we finally felt we had to say farewell to each other we all headed to Biaggi's for a final meal together.  (Love that place! Their Chicken Florentine Soup and Lemon Tower Cake are to die for!)
 
I'm still getting things put away from the trip but will be taking pictures of some of the projects we did while we were there.  I am so blessed to have such a special group of friends!
