...my CHA/California experience has started off to a POP ROCKIN' awesome time!
So after my twelve hour travel adventure it was time to relax. I wish I had gotten a picture, but picture three girls ALL on their laptops blogging away. That is our definition of relaxing time I would say!
Couldn't post up too much yesterday because Marti was hogging up all the bandwidth, but now that we've woken up (our bodies think it's 8 am, but the alarm clock here says 5 am!) it looks like TravelLodge's WiFi is willing to co-operate (note: we are staying at the Marriott - HAHAHAHA!).
After a little blog-hopping, craft gossip and bandwidth hogging, we were HUNGRY! My first dinner in California - Joe's Crab Shack! I loooooved it - if I could have my way, we'd be having dinner here EVERY night of my stay!
No crafty-related things yet, but here's some pictures: Anywho...to keep you nice and updated, this afternoon, we've got a class with TIM HOLTZ! w00t!!! Ranger King himself - and it'll be ALL about alcohol ink! I will be such a pro after that class! After that class, we're also registered for an acrylic album class. ...and THEN...the biggest news of all...we're going to Splitcoast Stampers CUPCAKE reception tonight! That is right...Splitcoast and CUPCAKES - how does it get any better than that!? Sorry my post is so scattered, we're having a video conversation with Miss Pezzy from Polka-Dot-Pie herself and she's the cutest thing EVER! Stay tuned for more fun, news and updates!!!
Please excuse the 12-hour flight hair - I didn't care, I was getting a crab/shrimp bucket! 
*SQUEALS* Oh my goooosh - it's treasure in a bucket! There was a random sausage in there, which we all thought was weird... 
There is our DELICIOUS pomegranate margaritas - with POP ROCKS!
There we are! So there you have it, SillySkittles, Marti-Pezadoodles and Suzanne Dean! We were laughing here because we didn't know that the pop rocks in the drink were going to attack us! Suzanne went to pour her pop rocks on and OH.MY.GOSH! pop rocks EVERYWHERE! We were still pulling them out of special places hours after we left the restaurant! LOL...

Well girls I laughed so hard with you (not at you) I almost pee'd my pants but didn't thank goodness, there is enough pull-ups around here for grandma to change. LOL I don't know if I dare try the candy with the kids poor grandpa has enough to clean around here. But wowser a cupcake party! I would kill for cuppy cake right now. I don't have anything Tim Holz but some older stamp pads and if you are giving something away I would be glad to open my mailbox for it. Giggle

Your comment about the sausage made me laugh so hard! We just saw the Joe's Crab Shack commercial & I had to rewind it to make sure I heard it right - that there was a sausage in with the crab & shrimp & then I see your comment on the blog. Too funny, but it looks like you're having a great time!
A random sausage? That just sounds weird! Can't wait to see what you have in store for us!
hmmmmm those drinks look WONDERFUL! Can't wait to see what you show us next!
You girls look like you're having a ball! Hope CHA is just great! I want some of those crab legs too!

I can't even think when the last time I had fresh crab might have been. So glad you were able to enjoy it.
