Great piccies Meg, Ray and Terri. So glad you finally caught up with each other. Wonderful smiling faces even though you must have all been tired.

I hope Terri has a great time in Queensland too, beautiful one day, perfect the next as the ad goes.

Looking forward to catching up with you tomorrow Meganne and Pauline at the Sydney Craft and Quilt Exhibition. I'm leaving this afternoon to stay with my oldest friend in Mount Colah. I'll call you tonight.

Love and blessings Chris

I am so glad you got to meet each other. I know you were a little worried earlier. The pictures are wonderful. I wish we all could have been there to share in a jouful meeting. Just think, the next time it will be a reunion.

So glad you were able to meet, no matter how brief. I'm sure that her trip will be exhausting, as dealing with children who are homesick is pretty draining.
Glad you are 'kindred spirits'.

We finally sorted out the timing problems and got to meet up with Terri at the hotel at which she and her group were staying.
We arrived about 8 PM and left before 10PM as it was obvious Terri was totally exhausted.

We sure did make the most of the short time we had and there were lots of laughs and many hugs to be passed on from other Cuties, I'm sure anyone watching would have thought us a little funny, when we were doing that. LOL!!!!

It was really wonderful to meet up and share the feelings of friendship started online here at Cute.

Under different circumstances I am sure we would become very close friends, as we discovered many things we had in common, including both of us carrying the same Lady Bug watch and both sharing a love of jewellery, not to mention our obvious craft interests.

Ray and I really enjoyed our time with Terri, despite how brief it had to be and we hope there will be more opportunities to meet up again in the future.
Photo's are pretty obvious as to who is who.

I might add that it was my eldest Son's 41st Birthday so on our way home Ray and I dropped in to see him. He said to thank you Terri, cause he would never have seen us otherwise.

OK, Queensland girls, Terri is up there now for a couple of weeks so if you can organise to catch up with her in the evenings, contact me and I'll forward her itinerary to you.
She doesn't have a phone but you could call the hotel and leave her a message (as I ended up doing) and if several of you can organise it amongst yourselves she would love to meet more Aussie Cuties.
Hugs n roses, Meganne

OH thank you so much for taking the time for this visit - to welcome Terri to AUS and to give her HUGS. I just knew that if you got together you would be good friends. This is wonderful.

New ventures and new friends, what a trip! all 3 of you sure do have big smiles. Meganne, you look just wonderful! I see outward appearances have finally grown back but it is the beautiful smile that sets you apart from all others! You have such a beautiful spirit and you do so deserve to be on top of the world and feeling great! I do wish I knew your wonderful secret so I could share it with the most important person in my life. Just listening to you and seeing how much you have changed(for the good) over the time that I have been here at Cute is an inspiration to all that know you, even if the aquaintance is just online. I wish you were close to us in miles so some of your strength, and your beautiful attitude could be shared with someone that needs alot of inspiration NOW! At the least, you encourage and inspire all of us almost daily.
I am so glad you could meet a fellow cutie and spend a short time visiting. That would be a trip of a lifetime for me. Of course, when I fly, my legs swell so badly that it takes months for them to get back to normal. The last time I flew, it was from Atlanta to Las Vegas for a work related convention(all expenses paid) and I was running a fever when I left home but I still had a wonderful time. If I could afford it, I would move out of my home and buy a Motorhome and I would travel all of the time. I would meet and visit all of the Cuties I could all over the USA and go to all of the Embroidery Conventions that I could get to! It is a joy to see you looking so happy and healthy. Your smile is contagious! Have a wonderful day and thanks for sharing your visit with all of us.

Thanks for your very kind words Linda, my secret for happiness is the wonderful man in these photo's. He is my bright Ray of sunshine and the reason for me being so positive, though I never did give up on finding true love, he is my proof that I was right to keep believing that there is a 'perfect' someone for each of us.

Life is so sweet when you have the right partner to share it.
Hugs n love, Meg
