whew - last night was the blue & gold banquet for scouts. we had a great turnout - all 67 people who rsvp came! i was pleased that we had some extra chicken but pretty much that was it. jake was so excited to be there & thought he had progressed from being a little boy to a big boy. i am glad to have that behind me so i can start getting ready for portland.when we travel for work - we don't like to mix family & work - we have learned it is much better to either focus on work or focus on family fun. portland is always hard because my 2 brothers & their families live there. the past couple years, we have made the 12-hour drive with the kids but we knew this year with 3 kids in haul (1 which doesn't sit still for 5 minutes very well) was not sounding like a fun trip for anyone involved. we decided to let jake fly with us to portland so he could play with his cousin layton - he is very excited!
i am very excited about the portland show as it is one of my most favorite shows of the year. we will have all the brand new basicgrey there (which nobody has yet). Lisa from Simply Swank will be there in our booth - demoing soldering. AND we will be testing out a new booth there - latest & greatest. So, we are excited! i'll keep you posted on how it all goes! now, off to pay bills, run errands, pack & hopefully do something fun with the kids tonight before we leave in the morning!

I can't wait!!! Your booth always ends up getting the majority of my budget. See you this weekend!!!
Post some pictures of the new booth, won't you?
Glad this is one time you mixed work and family. The kids had a great time and you are always welcome. We look forward to next year and hopefully I will be able to come see you booth then!
