@chopsuey119: My MIL offered us a HOUSE if we would move to Georgia but my DH doesn't want to move back She has a couple of houses in Lawrenceville and Norcross.

@mrsjazz: Aww she wants her grandbaby close! I probably wouldn't wanna move back either if I were your DH. DH and I are boring old homebodies so we like the 'burbs

@Smurfette: @MamaMoose: @chopsuey119: If I mysteriously disappear from the party, you can find me at Ikea!!
GOLD / squash / 13464 posts
@NaturallyCathy: "finding" someone in an Ikea is a LOT harder than you might think!!
hostess / wonderful honeydew / 32460 posts
@MamaMoose: @NaturallyCathy: @Smurfette: lol yep. Ikea's like 1/2 mile away!

@chopsuey119: @MamaMoose: @NaturallyCathy: @Smurfette: Hahahaha we were just in ATL for the sole purpose of going to IKEA and this is what our car looked like after:
hostess / wonderful honeydew / 32460 posts
@Mrs. Yoyo: lol! awwww you were so close! you passed us by on your way!!
GOLD / grapefruit / 4555 posts
@MamaMoose: Well I promise to answer my phone. Otherwise, just listen for gleeful squeals or meniacal laughter. Must. See!!!
@Mrs. Yoyo: Zomg jealous. Next time, swing by and pick me up!!
I told DH about the Ikea (because ny excitement could. not. be. contained!!) and he said he wasn't sending me with any money. Lol. So maybe I'm going?

@chopsuey119: You're a lucky duck! We were remarking on what a nice area that would be to live in ... Everything at your doorstep!
blogger / pomelo / 5400 posts
@NaturallyCathy: We would have had to strap you to the roof on the way back to TN! I'm still amazed all that fit.

@Mrs. Yoyo: there's a price to pay for convenience! being in the city can make relatively simple tasks complicated, and even more complicated depending on the season (football/summer) and whatever way the wind is blowing. We *just* moved to the burbs and are amazed at how much easier it is to get around!
hostess / wonderful honeydew / 32460 posts
@MsLipGloss: @Mrs. Yoyo: Yep. It's fun and convenient having food, shopping and entertainment across the street, but not ideal for raising a wild toddler and a wild baby boy to be!
We're headed back to the burbs next Spring..!
blogger / pomelo / 5400 posts
@chopsuey119: @MsLipGloss: Oh, understood. We didn't have LO with us that day, so I was looking at the area with my "no kid" glasses on. We considered living downtown here in little ol' Knoxville, and even here we nixed it for similar reasons and are in the 'burbs, too.

@NaturallyCathy: @MamaMoose: @Mrs. Yoyo: @Smurfette: @MsLipGloss: @irene: @linzr shall we mark our calendars for 7/6? 11:30am? I can order pizza, and will have some drinks, fruit, and other snacks for us to eat!
We have swim toys and a little bubble machine for the kids too

@jodyblair: see above please! You were on the previous page so couldn't @reply with the rest!

I want to go! I grew up in Decatur, my dad lives in Duluth, and my brother lives in the city. We never visit there, though.
GOLD / wonderful coconut / 33402 posts
@chopsuey119: That works for me!! I could be a little late, if my haircut runs late.
hostess / wonderful honeydew / 32460 posts
@Mrs. Twine: We're having it the first weekend of July so you should come visit your fam for the 4th and hang around for the meet up!
GOLD / grapefruit / 4555 posts
@chopsuey119: I have my calendar unofficially marked - still haven't gotten a firm yes from DH. He did help me find my bathing suit though, just in case. I would say I'm getting close to a yes. Or really hoping I am, anyways.
blogger / nectarine / 2608 posts
@Chopsuey119; Our travel budget is already tentatively used up for the year (and if not the budget, our sanity is maxed out for sure!). But I do want to go. So sad.
hostess / wonderful watermelon / 39513 posts
@chopsuey119: this sounds like sooo much fun!
nectarine / 2964 posts
@chopsuey119: That sounds fun! I am also tentatively a yes as I can't quite confirm yet until we get closer to the date.
I didn't scroll back to read all the comments but where are we meeting at? I'll pack a little lunch for LO as we usually start lunch at around 11:30pm.
Thanks for organizing!!
ETA: Oh, we can bring husbands along? How many of you are bring the other half?
GOLD / grapefruit / 4555 posts
@irene: My other half will be in Tennessee watching our toddler son while I bring our infant daughter

@littlek: @NaturallyCathy: @irene: @Smurfette: @Mrs. Yoyo: @MsLipGloss: @MamaMoose: @linzr:
Ok hope I didn't forget anyone! Let me know if you can make it so I can PM my address. Also let me know if you or your Lo's have any food allergies!
GOLD / grapefruit / 4555 posts
@chopsuey119: @MamaMoose: I feel like a kid at Christmas - I can go, I can go!!! Yay
GOLD / wonderful coconut / 33402 posts
@chopsuey119: we will be there!!!
@NaturallyCathy: Yay!!!! E and R will be best buds
hostess / wonderful honeydew / 32460 posts
@NaturallyCathy: @Smurfette: yay! So there's thunderstorms in the forecast. If it rains we'll bring the party inside. Club room or my place!
GOLD / squash / 13464 posts
@chopsuey119: I'm in! Just working out hotel and travel details with @NaturallyCathy: and @Mrs. Yoyo:! I've already got your address. I'm thinking we can be there around 2ish with the travel time and the time change.
ETA: I just noticed the 11:30 start time. I guess Cathy and I will get an early start!!!!

The people demand pictures of this epic HB gathering.

@regberadaisy: Well... if the people have spoken we can't fight the masses!
hostess / wonderful honeydew / 32460 posts
@Smurfette: @MamaMoose: @MsLipGloss: woohoo! 2:30 work for everyone?
GOLD / squash / 13464 posts
@chopsuey119: Oh that would definitely be easier than 11:30. If that works for others.
GOLD / wonderful coconut / 33402 posts
@chopsuey119: That works with me. That means R and I can swing by Ikea on the way.
GOLD / squash / 13464 posts
@MsLipGloss: Get your butt onto this thread and confirm your attendance. I'm not driving all the way to GA and missing my chance to meet you and BabyGloss!
hostess / wonderful honeydew / 32460 posts
@Smurfette: @MamaMoose: cool! feel free to come earlier if you want!
@MsLipGloss: lol waiting on your confirmation!!
GOLD / grapefruit / 4555 posts
@MamaMoose: I'm totally cool with an early start, I'm usually up by 6:30 every day whether I like to be or not anyways!
