What a weekend...

How did such a long weekend go by so fast?
I was counting down the days until Thursday when I would be leaving here and going to my mom's in preparation for going to Scrapfest on Friday and here it is the following Monday already...what the hell lol

I first want to thank Jen for wrangling me up a last minute VIP ticket for Friday night and for hanging with me while Ally was in class being a brown noser..er I mean TA *smiles at Ally* I had a great time being able to just sit and talk with Jen after knowing her for so long and yet never meeting face to face yet... it felt like we had met a million times already after just 10 mins.

It was great to be able to just hang with Jen, Ally, and yes EVEN Tara :P Although I didn't get to see Tara as much it was still great to see her and meet her friends Michelle and Ann-Marie.

The event was a HUGE success, there were so many great vendors there and so many great deals. I couldn't imagine someone NOT leaving with a heap of scrappy goodness. I finally got to meet Catherine Tachdjian and let me tell you she is just a down to Earth person!! I will save my autograph forever and ever Catherine lol

I was also able to meet Kerry McRorie (who is the Editor-in-Chief of Scrapbook & Cards Today) because Ally was a TA for her classes and because she is such a down to Earth person as well she introduced herself to me because Jen and Ally were too busy being RUDE :P lol

By far the funniest person I met was Vicki Boutin
. She has such a bubbly personality and a smile that is so contageous. I was able to help Ally TA one of her classes on Friday and I sat in on another (couldn't get a ticket in time) class on Saturday morning and let me tell you WOW! Just listening to her as she was teaching I was in awe of her talent...she taught so many great techniques in such a short period of time. And one thing I learned from her is when she tells you something is really really really good and DO NOT try it...well you should listen lol I am now addicted to the damn caramel ice cap. supreme from Tim Horton's!!!!

Ok well I am sure I am forgetting a bunch but I need to eat (as usual lol)
hows that for an update? lol
