Have you met any SSD (or other digi-place) chicks IRL?

[tuneskids]

Um, Kristin Cronin-Barrow and I live about 20 minutes or so away from each other, we get together once or twice a year, and run into each other (or I run into her hubby) occasionally (since they do their grocery shopping where I live). We "met" each other for the first time 5 years ago. And we are going to get together again on Wednesday, since I have to be in her community for my two middles to play their soccer games.

I was suppose to meet up with a bunch of girls this July in Chicago, but Keira got cancer, so hopefully next year.

I met Amy (clearskies) when we lived in Alaska, she walked up to my yard sale.

Back in February I got to meet Leigh, MandaBean, Heather Roselli, & Melissa Bennett, and it was great. Hopefully next time I head down south I'll see them again.



Linz & Val live pretty close to me, I'm hoping to meet up with them soon too.

Yes, and I didn't realize that until La's chat at DST recently! We should plan a ginormous mid-America meetup...I vote for here . DFW and Wichita are both about 3-3.5 hours away from the OKC metro.

Aww I'd love to take photos of your family this summer Kim! We haven't had any good family photos done since Kelsie was little, and definitely none that I can think of since Kyle came along so I'd love to have some done too! We will definitely have to plan a Wichita meet up since there's so many of us now!

I haven't met any other digi scrappers from online but back in my paper scrapping days I met a couple of the other DT members from a site I was on. One of which was actually living in the town I grew up in and when I moved back we became fast friends (she was in a LD relationship with her now husband and my DH was traveling a lot for work) and we spent lots of time together (irl and on the phone). Neither of us live there anymore and we don't talk nearly as often but we rarely have a phone conversation that lasts less than an hour.

Hoping I get a chance to meet Laura (emmasmommy) for a zoo trip at some point this summer. I've actually known her online about as long as I've known anyone from the digiscrapping world so would be really cool to meet her.

Hey, I was at Sea World San Antonio 2 summers ago when I was at Lackland for training. I was thinking that was a really beautiful area there.

I think it would be awesome to meet Nikki (Hawkins)....both of our kids are the same age and I think we'd all have a blast together. I'd especially love to see Ella and Claire together!!

Me too!!! We'd have so much fun!

[nonnie]

I am all for a Texas meet up - I know the idea has been tossed around a few time - name the place and time and I am so there!!!!!

[FireWolf]

Not yet, but i'm seriously hoping to meet some Texas and Arizona girls in Sept/Oct this year when we are in the US. I just need to sort out our schedule and and route and then I'll be posting to see if anyone is interested in getting together for lunch.

[4noisyboys]

I met Traci Reed at a digi-crop in Sacramento a few years ago...we shared the same table. There were other non SSD girls there too. I had lunch in San Diego with a bunch of non SSD girls a few years back as well.

I had lunch with Lizzy Reiber a few months ago before she sailed off on her Mexican cruise!

[AmberK]

I have met other digi-scrappers IRL from another site that I used to be active on. I don't really know too many people from this site yet though. Although Laura, the OP, and I meet over 3 years ago on our birth boards when we were both pg with our boys.
