Home again, home again…
. . .jiggety jig.
My mom always said that when I was growing up and now I find myself saying it too.
Well we went to Milwaukee this past weekend for the GMCHE Celebrate the Faith 2007: Catholic Homeschool Conference & Vendor Fair.
It was great. The people there are really SO nice and we had a very good time.
I got to see lots of old friends and meet some new ones. And put some faces to names - which is always fun!
This is a group shot (that’s totally incomplete as far as who was there but the only one I have ’cause it’s stolen from Love to Learn mom’s blog).
OK left to right- back row: Kathy Bridge, Beth Yank, Maria (my baby), Me, Nancy Brown, Alicia Van Hecke (our ever so gracious hostess) front row: Mary Daly, Margot Davidson and Maureen Wittmann.
Now, hop on over to Maureen’s blog and surprise her by getting all the names right! 
Here’s a few pictures I got with the phone:
Tim manning the tables while holding the baby, eating an apple and reading an article. Where was I? Taking the picture - duh!
And here I am with MB holding a sleeping Maria. This is a rare shot as Maria did not sleep much this weekend! I was so happy to finally meet MB. She’s such a sweetheart!
Hey MB, be sure and tell the relatives that you got to hold “10″!

May 1, 2007 - 02:05:27Well, I’m very glad you “stole” the picture! I love yours too (not a bad camera phone!). We really enjoyed your company and the whole aura of support and encouragement this weekend. MB is terrific!
What fun to be able to put faces to names :).
Maria gets more and more gorgeous. It looks as though she is also already bigger than Naomi (all feisty not-quite-16lbs of her!)
Ditto what Kathryn wrote! You all look so happy.
Thanks for naming names!
It looks like such fun was had by all.
Great pictures! You and Marybeth are so beautiful. I’m so jealous : ) I can’t wait to meet both of you.
Oh,I am totally bragging to anyone who will listen about meeting Maria. My bil wants my mil to have another baby to “catch up” to you all. She just laughed and said well that would CERTAINLY be a miraculous.
:)
It was beyond wonderful to meet you,Tim and Maria. My planner is great…I have begun to fill in dates and such…with such a large families getting birthdays and anniversaries filled in is a big job.
Glad to know you enjoyed your visit!! We so enjoyed having you there, Michele. Your planners are beautiful and I really hope the conference was successful for you! And the baby is just beautiful. But, I feel left out… I didn’t get to meet MB and don’t even know who she is!
I think I’ll check out her blog now…
