West Coast Meet???

Hey West Coast Girlies!!! :)

BnB Is growing so fast and I have noticed alot of New members are here on the West Coast, I wanted to get an Idea of how many of you would be interested in a Meet.

Im in Sacramento California. I know that there are a few girls now from the bay area and I have even seen a few girls join from my neck of the woods. So, If you are interested in a meet, please reply to this thread and let me know that you are interested. Then we can go from there and pick a place to meet and come up with a fun thing to do!

Hope to meet some of you soon :)

Suz!

I'm in! I think it would be fun!

:happydance:

I have a feeling that most of the West Coast Girls in our area are in the Bay Area.... So if we have a few more girls interested, Im thinking it would be good to do something in San Francisco... Maybe a Union Square Meet or Fishermans Warf..( I know thats real Toursty...) Even the Zoo (now that it is re-opened ;))

What A Great Idea!!!
I Can Also Welcome You In My House We Do Have A Great Back Yard And Patio(hot Tub And I Ask My Obgyn It Is Ok To Use When You Ttc And When You Are Pg The Temp Can't No Be Over 100) Anyway The House Is Very Confortable And I For Party I Hosted 25 And More.
If You Wanted To Do A Luncheron Or A Tea Party !
There Is Also Very Nice Street Like Filmore Or 24 Th Street(that Is Where My Shop Is )with Plenty Of Interesting Shop Around .
I Will Try To Think Or More Too!

:) That sounds Great !

Yea! I'm totally in! That sounds like fun. Good idea Suz, I've never done one of these before, but a site I used to go on had them a lot on the east coast since that was where most the people were. It will be cool to meet everyone in the area. :hi:

Great! Can you girls think of anyone else in our area?

i am asking mnm-220 she just introduce herself on the forum not a long time ago in January i found out today she is from california also.
so what do you want to do ladies? shop around ? have lunch ?
and i promess you guys my english is way better when i speak !
anyone speak french?(my husband was reading my posts this morning and he was like my god laetitia you really have to do better than that ...oh well it's not that easy! )

it's gift/flower shop name the French Tulip.
Im sure Suz mentioned something about this :dohh: With everything I forgot but now recall 'something'.

Do you have website?

Hello Ladies,

I sooo wish I could join but i'm in So Cal and work on weekends. I actually work 2 jobs and my part time job is every Sat and Sun.

I'm all about meeting new people and think this is a great idea. Mabye another time! If I am ever in the bay area I will let you all know. I actually live in the Los Angeles area so its not too expensive to hop on a plane to the bay but I have to contribute to paying the bills so I have two jobs.

Sorry girls, maybe next time!

:hugs: Well as BnB keeps growning, Im sure meets will start to happen more and more :headspin: Look forward to meeting you someday :hi:

so any idea on a date ?
ps: anything but Valentines week ! i will be dead busy at the shop:)

How about after V-Day than....

Saturday Feb 23? Does that work with everyone?

work for me !
so let me know what you want to do ...i can make lunch for every one at home and if every one could let me know there pregnancy status or ttc i will make goodies bags for everyone (included myself:) and yes i am a very good cook !

:happydance: Ill chat with you in a bit. Im getting ready to go home from work. Do you have msn? if so...Add me :)

yes i have msn but you have to contact or invite me (laetitia at frenchtulip.com)
for some reason because i have firefox i couldn't invite you.
talk to you later!

That day works for me as well! Let me know if you need me to bring anything. My msn is hmjorgenson at hotmail.com (hmjorgenson@hotmail.com) you can add me if you want.

Just to let you girls know, im sure I read a mod saying something about posting e-mails on the forums - they can be picked up and cause spam or something I think (correct me if im wrong). Maybe PM your mails just in case as im not sure if this is a private forum?

thanks for the tips Tilly ...mine is my shop so junk mail i get a lot anyhow ! but good to know i had personnel one as well so i will be careful.

LOL Thanks Tilly, I was just editing them as I read your posts. Thanks for looking out ;)

That day works for me! =) One small request tho, if we could possibly avoid the zoo, since I'll be 34 weeks, and probably will end up needing someone to push me around in a wheelchair by the time were halfway thru LOL.

Sounds like fun! =)

LOL Ok hun.. We will avoid the Zoo :)


Im thinking that it will probably be the 4 of us and maybe do something low key...;)

sure ! so if you want to have lunch and than stroll down 24 th street (loaded with little shop ...) we can do that ...or if you prefer to eat lunch out it is fine with me too . any other other idea holldoll (i see you are close by but don't know where ...)
is this ladies alone or husbands /boyfriends too? ( i don't care either way :)
i will make my house confortable for you ladies if you wish to come over .
Let me know what you don't eat or can not eat :)

I know my hubby wont come :rofl: Im trying to see if my friend wants to come :) She is a mom to a 10 month old.....I am invited her to join the Forum too :)

I dont want to put any hard work on you having it at your place. If everyone is up for it, we could do a nice lunch there and stroll the shops :) Let me know what I can bring :)

I would rather do it without SOs. I need a break from mine and some girl time! I'm up for lunch and hanging out. I'm in Fremont, Miel. I don't know the city that well, I'm fairly new to CA (okay, like 4 years, but still new).

Girl time sounds great!!!! I dont know the City well either Holldoll. Im going to get lost. I just know it :rofl:

It's a little out of your way, but if you want to meet me in Fremont, we could drive up there together. I have navigation and then we won't have to park two cars.

That sounds Do-able. Actually. I just might see if Hubby wants to come to Fremont with me and he can go see his dad while I hang with the girls. His dad is in Union City. :)

That might be a good way to do it. Then you won't have to drive all the way back to Sacramento by yourself.

:) Yeah.... The drive is hard when you are alone :)

You don't need to bring anything guys ! i love to entertain!
Any way my house is 5 minutes way (by car ) and 10 minutes (by muni J church line) from 24 th street so it's pretty close .(it is not walkable so )
But i have to tell you my husband already request to take our car for the day so may be we could all fit in one car when we want to look around :) .
i will ask my husband to figure out direction for you if you need .
i am so exited !!!

I can drive. Like I said, I have navigation and I'm kind of a control freak in the car and like to drive.

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: I thought I was the only one like that. I feel so normal!:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

i have to confess ladies ...at home i have a dresser full of babies clothes ...but by the time you come over i may be Pg :) so i won't look so crazy...hope a BFP
show up on monday:) :)

:dust:

Iam looking forward to it. So lets just plan a lunchon and shop brousing then :) And we still say Feb 23?

Feb on the 23 rd it is! :)

:happydance:

YAY! I'm VERY excited! Burtonbaby, are you in?

:( i want to come.....

I cant wait either :)

Come on over Terrie!

Yea I'm in!! Is it easy to take BART to your area miel? With the med that docs gave me for HG, I haven't driven since September. CRAZY I know. But they said I cant drive with it, so I dont want to risk it.

BurtonBaby, Arnt your in the freemont area? That is where Holldoll is from, and Im going to ride in with her. If its ok with Holldoll, maybe we can all go together?

i also live a block away from the bart (at balboa park station ) 5 minute walking but i can pick you up with the car too at the station if you like.

Burtonbaby, you can meet us here at my house, or I could pick you up at the BART station in Fremont. I live 2 mins from it.

I'll either take bart to fremont and ride with you girls, or take bart to the city. I'd probably rather just take bart to Fremont, so it's not as far alone... I've become more nervous about being out alone since I've been pregnant too. :blush: I'm excited girls!!

:happydance:

:hissy: I wanna go :rofl:

:headspin: Fly it to SFO !!! Does it cost alot to fly to the US from Canada???

Actually the prices aren't that bad--around $250 Canadian, unfortunately we are poor and trying to pay off credit cards or I'd do it!

:sad2:

I know, sucks to be poor :rofl:

BurtonBaby- As we get closer let me know, I can definitely pick you up at BART. It can be kinda sketchy into the city sometimes, so I'd rather you not do it alone either!

so ladies! what can't you not eat or dislike ? like that i can work on my menu !!!!

I know, sucks to be poor :rofl:

Stop letting the phone just ring when work calls you in :rofl:

so ladies! what can't you not eat or dislike ? like that i can work on my menu !!!!


Im open for anything....But you better let me know what I can do to help or bring.....:blush:

Stop letting the phone just ring when work calls you in :rofl:

:rofl: I don't always do that. :rofl:

Suuuurrrrrreeee! ;)

I worked yesterday :rofl: and it was BORING! Didn't get called today :rofl:

I can pretty much eat anything. What do you want us all to bring?

i don't you to bring anything ...the two of are PG already and driving and hopefully SUZ will be too by the time we are suppose to meet!

just bring extra bag for the shopping you may do:)

:lol: Fingers crossed !!!!


I love Shopping :)

Girlies....I think my friend Angie is coming with me....She needs to have a day out with the girls....She is going to see if her mom can watch her son.....


Holldoll, if she comes, I dont want to impose so we will probably just drive into the city together.....;) But we can work all the details as we get closer :)

She wouldn't be an imposition at all. 4 of us would fit into my car and 5 would once we get to the city. It's up to you, what you want to do though

;) Thanks Hun!!! :)

Hey guys. Just wanted to jump in here and say I hope you guys have fun. If I still lived in Southern California, I would drive up but AK is just a bit to far.

I will be in So Cal for my HS reunion in Sept (unless I get pregnant quick and can't fly. LOL) so if you guys meet up again at that time, I will definitely join. LOL

:headspin: Will have to keep that open... :) Maybe bring it up as the time gets closer.. :)

it's gift/flower shop name the French Tulip.

OMG I LOVE THE NAME! My maiden name is LaTulippe, which means 'the tulip' in French! COOLNESS!:happydance:

Is there a date arranged then girls - Save me 8 pages :rofl:

Yep! Saturday Feb 23 :wohoo:

Still have time to get a Plane Ticket!!! ;)

Hope yous have girls :D

Should be a Great day! Its going to be BurtonBaby, HollDoll, Meil and Myself... also, my friend Angie is thinking about coming too ;)

We are gong to have a nice lunch at Meil's and then possibly do some shopping in San Francisco :headspin: (Got my Credit Card ready!!!!! :rofl:)

Sounds fun :D

Yvanne is coming over to mine on the 24th, must remember to lock the doors :lol:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

so ladies we are getting closer to our meeting :) are you exited?

:happydance: Im very excited.

Yep! Saturday Feb 23 :wohoo:

Still have time to get a Plane Ticket!!! ;)
You paying? lol

Hope yous have girls :D
:shock: :lol:

I'm very excited! I woke up this morning thinking about the fact that it's already next weekend!

Suz, is your friend joining us? What time are we meeting? I'm a planner, I need details!! :D

I think she is going. I will see her tomorrow afternoon so I will confirm. :rofl:

Yes lets start planning times :)

Miel! What time do you want us to Raid your House !!!!!!

:muaha:

anytime after noon that i can i have time to clean it:) for you!!!! around 12:30 will be fine . than we can head up for shopping time after lunch...

Holldoll, Im thinking that it is probably a smarter choice for me to just drive straight over to Miel's. Looking on mapquest, it will save me atleast 45 min each way in drive time :lol: (of course not counting traffic)

Yeah, that's a long ways out of your way.

Burtonbaby, what is your plan?

man !looks like it will rain on Saturday:( anyway i will do a fire for us at home :)
i was planing on making Potatoes GRATINS ; GREEN SALAD AND A CHEESECAKE let me know if you can eat that bumps ladies:)

:happydance: Girls Im getting really excited...... :)


Its always nice to meet new people......

Sounds great to me Miel! Yeah, it's POURING here now and it's only supposed to get worse this weekend. Oh well! We'll have fun anyway!

We can find something indoor to do.... (will have to snag hubbies credit card :rofl:) Neman Marcus here I come!!!!!! ( If we make it that far into the city :rofl:)

today is not to bad ...if it could rain at night and sunshine during the day that will be great!
i can't wait ! i can't wait!!

hey ladies....i am changing the menu i will make a crumble instead of the cheese cake ( i lost 3 pound this week and don't want to gain them back!!!) if you don't mind:)

:happydance: Sounds Yummy!

Sounds good to me! I'm picking up BurtonBaby at her house at noon so we should be to your house by 12:30.

Very Cool. Im guessing I will leave my house at 10 to 10:30. Should be there on time :)

I hope you girls all have a wonderful time tomorrow!

thank you vickie! we will take pictures i am sure:)

how did it go girls??????

They had to postpone it

oh no!

We were supposed to have a big storm and we didn't want Suz to drive down in it and I thought I was getting sick. The storm didn't happen as bad as they said it would and the sickness stayed away until today.

Hope you feel better soon Holldoll, especially with the meet this weekend :hugs:

No meet this weekend, we are going to try again for next Saturday. I better feel better by then!
Thanks for the well wishes!

:dohh: LOL Ya'll keep changing it on me

:rofl: Was trying to keep you thinking it was Prego Brain :rofl:

You can't confuse pregnant women like that! It's not nice!!!

:rofl: :rofl:

Not very nice Suz :sulk::trouble::rofl:

Are you NOT Pleased Vickie :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Never Suz! Especially with you!! :rofl:
