Sweet Shoppe Convention
 
In light of all the little videos I'm seeing here, would it not be awesome to have a Sweet Shoppe convention for us all to get together and meet and talk digi?
Maybe some day we can do that. I know with the economy it'd be hard for most of us to take the extra money to travel and stuff, but from seeing the videos and glimpsing into some of your personalities I bet we'd get along awesome!

MandaBean 04-10-2009 12:20 PM

I'm voting for Atlanta! :)

newfiemountiewife 04-10-2009 12:21 PM

I would love that, no matter where it is, it'll be REALLY far for me. LOL

digideb 04-10-2009 12:21 PM

If it's Atlanta, I'm TOTALLY there (since it's only 45 minutes away)!!!!! :thumbup: I even have 2 spare bedrooms!

iJenny 04-10-2009 12:22 PM

I'm thinking Denver would be good. :p I mean, Lynette, me, Lizzy... its a win-win situation for everyone! :D

Mandy 04-10-2009 12:23 PM

Well I was thinking more along the lines of St. Louis since it's central. LOL
And the zoo is free. :p

Sarah8914 04-10-2009 12:27 PM

I went to St. Louis last summer!

Libby Pritchett 04-10-2009 12:27 PM

HA! I'm with Mandy, I'd do St. Louis. lol (wouldn't be opposed to Atlanta though)

Melissa Bennett 04-10-2009 12:28 PM

Well I think our Nation's Capital (DC) would be best!! Plus our zoo is free too!! :p

kscwgirl 04-10-2009 12:28 PM

St Louis is 5 hours from me, but you know, if we want to get really CENTRAL... I live in the middle of the US, people. :D

Paula 04-10-2009 12:30 PM

Hey I am ALL for traveling anywhere as long as I can leave this podunk town! LMAO

chastml 04-10-2009 12:30 PM

DH and I have been talking about taking a trip and STL is on our list. :thumbup:

ZaCola3 04-10-2009 12:35 PM

Ohhh St.Louis or Atlanta would be AWESOME for me....I'm not *that* far from either...but ohhh how I hate to travel.

BrattyMeg 04-10-2009 12:37 PM

I think Atlanta trumps Denver..I mean Manda, Deb, MEEEE, a few more ga girls lol plus you got Heather, Amanda, Melissa? in nearby Nashville....

jessica31876 04-10-2009 12:43 PM

I would suggest Orlando but heck even I dont wanna be here LOL. Atlanta would be not to far to drive though

crystalbella77 04-10-2009 12:44 PM

I'm down with Nashville or St. Louis! unless someone want to come to Indianapolis???? lol

CHA is in Orlando this summer!

jessica31876 04-10-2009 12:51 PM

I had to look that up to see what it was and figured it would be at the Convention Center and it was. I would love to go to that but I HATE going to the area the convention center is in. Traffic is a nightmare because it is in the middle of one of the busiest roads in Orlando.

That's very true.
Maybe we should have it in Forks, WA.
LOL

rachaelsscraps 04-10-2009 01:02 PM

We need a New England convention, then too!!!! :)

Nettio 04-10-2009 01:11 PM

The summers are pretty mild in Denver. :D

nesser1981 04-10-2009 01:40 PM

All my family lives in or near Atlanta. I need to go there sometime so my Granny can see my kids. She's never seen them.

aggiefamily 04-10-2009 01:44 PM

I know a beach house we could stay at! ;) Anyone up for the Houston area?

schock77 04-10-2009 01:49 PM

Why not make it a vacation and come to the live music capital of the world? Austin baby! Of course... if it were somewhere else, maybe I'd be forced to leave the kids with DH and get away... hmmm.........

What she said! :thumbup:

Though St. Louis is drivable for me too . . . ;)

MelissaL88 04-10-2009 04:57 PM

I'm flexible. I could do any of the cities mentioned.

Stacey42 04-10-2009 05:19 PM

DC is a great place! Lots of stuff to do in DC...the Smithsonian, the Zoo, the White House..all those monuments to visit....plenty of hotels to host a gathering....

Amber1279 04-10-2009 05:21 PM

Everyone knows that SSD is based in Arizona :D That is where is needs to be. We should do it in the Winter so you can all escape your snow, wind & rain :)

Leah 04-10-2009 05:39 PM

I'm going to vote somewhere relatively central! LOL

I love the sound of st louis! I would be right there... I'm moving to Kansas City... but still about 4 hours out that's it.

joelsgirl 04-10-2009 07:04 PM

Since the economy's so bad, let's plan for next summer...when I'm in America! Or if you do a convention before then, you must promise to have another one while I'm home, kay? And I woudl travel ANYwhere in America to meet you gals!

Totally agree with Kellie!

My 10 year reunion is this year, and we're moving and I've already got to go to DC to get my car.

Next year would be better for me too. LOL!

digideb 04-10-2009 07:26 PM

Yeah, we're going on a 2 week road trip to California this summer for my brothers wedding this summer. Nothing planned for next summer yet though & that'd give us plenty of time to save!

lovely1m 04-10-2009 07:59 PM

I vote for Minneapolis! Its central if you include Canada. Plus there's a free zoo there, too. :)
