GTG - Saturday, December 29, 2007

As some of you already know from my conversations with you at the impromtu GTGs, DH and I would love to host a party at our home in December (weekends in Nov are pretty much all booked) for the 06 brides and your husbands.

As a warning, we have a little yorkie (for anyone allergic), who is no more than 5 pounds. We will have her on a leash, so for those of you who are not fans of dogs don't have to worry about her.

Also, for those of you with young babies, we have two guest rooms with plenty of space/beds, etc if any babies need to have a nap, be changed, get nursed/fed, etc. This way you can have privacy if you want it.

For the husbands, there is a large screen TV for them to watch whatever game they want, along with some game systems.

Oh, and we live in God's country, according to Leslie! It's Port Jeff.

ETA: I'll start a new thread for just a poll on a GTG after seeing what all of you are saying! Looks like majority voted for Saturday, December 29, 2007

All the dates, which are all weekends, should work for us.

P.S. When was the improtu GTG, I sooo would have come...

Since I'm due December 9, I'm thinking that December 8 probably won't be a good day for me!!

In all seriousness, we will do our best to make whatever date gets voted on by the majority. Before the baby comes is probably a better time for us than so soon after.

Sat. Dec 1 is the Saturday before my b-day, so we'll prob be busy.

The other dates look good, but I'm leery about planning this around the holidays and then having people bail!!

I'll deal with that scenerio if it comes true. Reason I threw a weekend in Jan into the mix.

Honestly, I already have 2 parties booked in December. I vote January 5. It may be something nice to look forward to after the holidays are over.

what she said! December is busy and I usually don't have time to wipe myself after going to the bathroom, let alone have a GTG with friends.

Um Jaime, this might have been good to know before the Fox Hollow GTG last year, that was in December. If I was aware of your slacking hygiene I might have rethought the seating arrangements!!!

Great. I just did a unit about communicable diseases with my class and now I have to walk around in a bubble around my friends. You call it OCD. I call it survival.

I will BE there!! Jimmy will probably come with me, I want him to meet my Long Island friends. I don't know what I will bring since I will be staying in a hotel. I will probably pick something up from the grocery store that is pre-made.
