Poor Michelle!!!! You're gonna be sore AND have a good shiner!!

2 hours river ride is good for me too----but I HAVE to do it---I have something to prove to my family AND myself!!!

I will likely wear my swimming suit with cutoffs over the bottom---you know the belly whine thing goes here.......

I planned capri's and flip flops for everything else!! I will get some river shoes.

Soooooooo excited!!!!

OMG Michelle~ You NEED rita now. I hope your ok...take some tylenol or something of the like now. I've always wanted a shiner (just for like a day, just dont want the pain of getting one). Take pix, k? I am not happy you fell, but jealous if you get a shiner. I hope your not thinking, "I'll give you a shiner, Pamela!" LOL...

Poor thing, take care!

xoxoxoxo

Is everyone that's flying besides Pam planning on bringing checked luggage??? I am the last to arrive and don't want to hold people up while we wait for my luggage. I can try and pack everything in my carry on if that will save time. Everyone remember to bring cameras!!!!!! I have my little flip camcorder that I can get an hour's worth of video on that I'll be bringing too. That way I can post it on the net and share with everyone.

It's gettin' close, ladies!!!!!!!!!!:thumbup::biggrin::lol:

Yes Long2Bfree---we have had it in the planning for almost a year, to gather for the bandiversary----it is almost here!!! Yay! Thanks--I have no doubt whatsoever we will have fun, we chat each and every day--without these Shrinking Violets, my band would have simply been functional---not fun!

I am checking luggage, since Michelle and I arrive so close together, we will hang together to get our bags. I will be bringing my camera and camcorder----with a couple extra memory cards!!! LOL Will put my camera stuff in a carry on, and take it through myself.

I really wanna go get some cute new clothes to take, but.....have no idea what size I will be a week later, so refuse....you guys just have to see my old stuff!!

Son and grandson are here, gotta run~

I don't know what I am going to wear tubing. When the incentive tax checks come in I will go get a bathing suit that fits. I hate my arms too but may just go for the gusto and let them flop around. You only live once, right? I burn SO easily so I really do need to have a either loads of sunblock or a t-shirt (or both) on me.

Michelle-I hope you are better from your fall. That made me wince when I read your post!

I am so excited!

Oooohhh michelle, that hurt just reading it... Did you end up with a black eye? We want pics... he he he...

Speaking of accidents, I was shaving my legs yesterday and had my leg propped up funny in my shower and I slipped and ended up slicing my thigh open. Ooohh it stung so bad. I had to finish my shower cuz I was all soaped up, but there was blood running down my leg the whole time.

Girls, you hhhhhhaaaaavvveee to try toobing!! You can't come to Gruene and not toob! Shopping, spa treatments, ect.. can be done anywhere you ever go. But toobing?? It's so much fun!! When we go we usually do the six hour route... so two hours will go by like nothing!

Terry - the dance hall that we're going to... is it open air?? Oh, one thing that I'm gonna put down on my list to bring is OFF mosquito spray. Mosquitos are the size of small poodles here in Texas! I'll bring enough for everyone since it comes in an aerosol can. What else...don't forget that I'm also coming in an SUV if anyone needs me to bring anything with me. I'm bringing big bottles of shampoo, conditioner, lotion, sun stuff... Enough so that if any of ya'll don't want to bring your stuff with you we'll have plenty.

Terry - let me know what you want me to bring from the grocery store. I haven't checked your list to see whats been requested...

yah, tracy. I let my arms flop around... I have no shame really. I'll never see these people again in my life so whats the point in caring. Im wearing my bathing suit and lots of sun sunscreen... gonna let my bat wings flap as they please... he he he

I am getting more excited by the minute!!!

Rick and I were discussing vacation plans....we hum hawed going here or there....nothing jumped out and excited me too much---he says he gives up, and we will talk about it AFTER the TX trip and my surgery, they are eating up all my excitement!!!!

And my arms will put all of y'all to shame, I got fat AND age on ya!!!

Kat

Thanks, Haydee!! I think I can just do a carry on now and not have to take time to wait for luggage. I can just get off the plane and hop into Tracy's car and chatter with Tracy and Pam all the way to wherever she takes us!! KEWL!!!

Yeah but you are gonna be SKINNY by the time we get there!!!

And you will probably have skinny arms too! So there! :rolleyes:
