CHA Day 1

Sorry for the delay in blogging about our first show day but, man, were we exhausted last night!  We had a great time (even Mike did).  We bumped into many of our friends, and got to chat with some new ones, like Julie Fei-Fan Balzer!  I don't know how many orders we turned in, but it had to be at least 20.  We have just as many to place today, so you can bet that we probably ordered your favorites.  We have early appointments on the show floor today to take care of some big orders (hint: one of them is two words ending in _ _ oject _ ife).

We went to an event last night for Charity Wings to support breast cancer research.  We got to bid on bras made by some very creative ladies (and guys, too).  We wrapped up the evening with some more order-writing (yes, it's neverending).  Our hotel room is becoming trashed between all of the catalogs and goodies we've picked up.  I know, you want to know what we've ordered, don't you?  Because there are so many, I'll list some of the highlights (and my personal favorites)...

• Cosmo Cricket (love Honky Tonk)
• Bo Bunny - if you loved Mama Razzi, look out!
• New sports and school stamps
• Tons of new dies from Sizzix
• KaiserCraft (huge order here - love the new albums)
• Lawn Fawn - a.dor.a.ble.
• Little Yellow Bicycle - couldn't turn a thing down
• May Arts - I love the new ribbon colors!  Totally in line with the latest fashion...
• Heidi Swapp - fun stuff!
• Ranger - new paints I think you'll love
• Simple Stories - new Sn@p!

Don't see your favorite yet?  Don't worry, we still have the whole day today to order it.  If there's something you can't live without, please be sure to let us know on Facebook.  I'll post some pics there for you, too!
