Happy Monday!! Well, I survived! Our event (1st Western New York Splitcoaststampers Gathering) went off really well. We had 50 in attendance, including Tracy (Lodichick) and I. What a whirlwind of a day, it was, too!
We arrived early to set up and get our ‘kitchen crew’ moving. Our kitchen crew (seen below) consisted of my DH, Don and Tracy’s DH, Greg. They were awesome!!! The food was awesome, too. Kudos to the guys!! It’s not easy keeping 50 women happy, but they pulled it off 
That’s Greg on the left and Don on the right.
