We're back from CHA
Wow! we had a great time at CHA - we're finally home.
I think that Heidi, Becky and I ordered just about every new product being released. There weren't too many that we passed on. I'll get my list together in a few days and will post it so you'll all know what to look forward to arriving here at ACOT. It would probably be easier listing what we didn't purchase.
We met so many great people at CHA. The ladies at Kaiser were absolutely wonderful to us, and ditto with so many other companies. As always, Creative Imaginations gave us the red-carpet treatment. I'd better not start naming companies or I'm sure I'll leave some out.
We had a great time talking to Marah Johnson and Samantha Walker. They would both like to do a celebrity chat and perhaps take part in our fall crop.
We picked up a few new companies: Kaiser, October Afternoon and a couple that Becky picked up (can't remember who it was)
We ordered a lot of Halloween & Christmas, WeR and K&Co had really awesome Halloween products.
We met with Amy Teets - what a hoot she is - and Pam from our Creative Team for dinner. Unfortunately we missed meeting with Karen, hopefully next time! We got to talk and laugh with these ladies, what a great time it was. Pam gave us great ideas for our CT, thanks Pam!
What else? got to try out my new OnStar nav system in my car. I can't seem to go to far without getting lost, even with mapquest directions. Well, wouldn't ya know it: the step by step directions getting to our hotel were great, but I still managed to take quite a few wrong turns. I'm not sure I could ever learn to drive in a big city like Chicago. Too many crazy drivers constantly changing lanes.

Re: We're back from CHA
So glad you picked up KaiserKraft! I can't get enough of that!! I'm looking forward to seeing the list of the rest of the goodies. I have to say that of all the CI team Marah is one of my favorites, maybe it's because she's the only I can talk eye to eye with - LOL!
