I can't remember the name of the park! :lol:

In case anyone knows what I am talking about: Its the new one near the intersection of Roswell Road and the Chatahoochie. Not Azalea park near the canoes shoot the hooch thing, but the newer one on the other side of Roswell Road where they had the movies last summer.

Shannan
June 9th, 2004, 08:46 AM
What time??

sheila
June 9th, 2004, 09:19 AM
I was just thinking about that this morning. :lol:
Would 10am or 2pm work better for people?

littleb
June 9th, 2004, 09:29 AM
Hey Atlanta people! :wavey: It's me! Bethany - the non-OUAL member (who btw can still see too much. You guys are NOT helping my non-surfing efforts at all!). Would you guys mind a non-OUAL member to come? :biggrin: Pleeeeeeeeeeeze?

Besides - it gives me an excuse not to go to my BIL's ww's baby shower.

Please? I am not too proud to beg. Really, you'd be surprised.

sheila
June 9th, 2004, 09:30 AM
please come Bethany!
Can you remember the name of the park where we met last time?

Shannan
June 9th, 2004, 09:31 AM
10 am is better as 2 pm is pushing into the heat of the day. Can't wait to meet you Bethany.

Sunshine1020
June 9th, 2004, 10:45 AM
Either time is fine with me. 10 am just means getting out of bed earlier to get out the door. :) But Shannan is right about the heat factor!

Shannan
June 9th, 2004, 12:00 PM
I'm going to need directions as I live 90 minutes south and I don't know where I'm going.

littleb
June 9th, 2004, 12:01 PM
No. I don't remember. But the directions are super easy to follow and you really can't get lost. I'll see if I can find it online.

The first OUAL Atlanta Get Together is scheduled for

10:00am
Riverside Park (http://www.ci.roswell.ga.us/RecandParks.asp?View=Parks&Park=20)
575 Riverside Drive
Roswell, GA





How long it will last is completely up to us... so if you want to bring some snacks or lunch, that would be great! And since it will probably be hot, please remember to bring some water. I'll try to remember to bring some blue & white balloons, but if you don't see them, we should be in one of the covered picnic table areas.

:balloons: :banana: 4 more days! :banana: :balloons:




Who's knows they are coming?
Who knows they aren't?

We'll be there

Wendy
June 15th, 2004, 12:42 PM
We will be there!

Jenn
June 15th, 2004, 02:35 PM
I'll be there with Peyton. My sister, Christy is also coming with me and bringing her 3 kids.

Shannan
June 15th, 2004, 04:08 PM
We'll be there...

harmonielyn
June 15th, 2004, 04:11 PM
I wont be able to go. Its such a long drive id have to drive down the day before and stay the night to be there for 10.

Julie
June 16th, 2004, 10:05 AM
We will try to be there... Hopefully the weather will cooperate :)

Sunshine1020
June 16th, 2004, 12:19 PM
I am hoping to still make it, but my week plans have changed a little bit. My grandfather passed away around 1 in the morning on Tuesday, so we'll be having a funeral on Friday. The only thing that might stop me from coming is that I have some family coming in to town from CA. I think things will be back to normal on Saturday though.
I'm really wanting to meet all of you!! :)

Tiffany, I am so sorry! :justahug:

Sunshine1020
June 17th, 2004, 11:34 AM
Tiffany, I am so sorry! :justahug:
Thanks Sheila! It's okay though...he was really sick (parkinsons and dementia)and is much better off now. We were all just waiting around for this.... As sad as that sounds.
I found out my family is going to be in town until Tuesday, so I will probably still get to come!

Tiffany

Sunshine1020
June 21st, 2004, 10:22 AM
So, how did it go? I'm so sorry I missed it! We were so worn out after Friday... Hopefully we'll be able to come next time! :)

June 21st, 2004, 10:48 AM
We had fun! Next time, we'll need to plan to be near a pool, though, since it was way too hot!

Shannan
June 21st, 2004, 10:51 AM
Hans and Aiden were sick...man I wish I could have gone.

Jenn
June 21st, 2004, 08:58 PM
It was great meeting everyone and I had a ton of fun, but I agree with Sheila and next time we need to make it a pool party!

Shannan
June 22nd, 2004, 09:45 AM
I agree with that as well...I know Indian Springs has a beach that you can play at with trees and picnic areas...and Dausett Trails Animal Rescue is just up the road...we could take the kids there to see the animals...just a suggestion.

Lette
June 22nd, 2004, 09:51 AM
Okay.. I've been lurking.. :biggrin:

Where are the pictures??? :)

sheila
June 22nd, 2004, 09:52 AM
that sounds fun! I hope you & Aiden are feeling better, Shannan!

Shannan
June 22nd, 2004, 09:54 AM
Yeah...getting over an upper respiratory infection that Hans brought back from Maryland...I'm just about over it and Aiden's still got his snotty nose. When we're ready to get together again...I'll send the info. It'll be good as it's only about 45 minutes south of you Atlanta girls...so we'd be meeting you half way :biggrin:

Jenn
June 22nd, 2004, 11:19 PM
Okay.. I've been lurking.. :biggrin:

Where are the pictures??? :)

:blush: I don't think anyone took any pictures.

harmonielyn

:blush: I don't think anyone took any pictures.
Seriously? I think thats a first!

Jenn
June 22nd, 2004, 11:23 PM
Seriously...unless they took them before I got there or after I left. :lol:

sheila

Okay.. I've been lurking.. :biggrin:

Where are the pictures??? :)]

I had my camera, but completely forgot about it until an hour or so after we left. :blush: I guess that just means we'll have to get together again! Oh, shucks... :lol:

Wendy
June 23rd, 2004, 08:46 AM
Pictures?? :lol: I left my at home and forgot until we were half way there. I promise all you would have seen were a bunch of sweaty people though :)

Shannan
June 24th, 2004, 12:54 PM
The next one, I'll probably have my camera with me. Hans never leaves home without it given the ample chance for a kodak moment.

littleb
June 24th, 2004, 01:06 PM
sweaty people and a bunch of really cute babies! :)

Thanks for the invitation girls. It was so good to see you all again, and to meet some new ATL girls too. As a working mother this is really my only opportunity for any type of playgroup. I'm so glad I was able to go.

Bretta - I missed seeing you and your girls. Hopefully you'll be able to make it to the next one.
Jenn - I don't think I've ever seen a cuter 35 week PG woman. You are adorable. Good luck to you!

- Bethany

Shannan
June 24th, 2004, 02:37 PM
Well as soon as we decide on a date, I'll post the info for Indian Springs and Dausett Trails if ya'll are game.

sheila

Shannan, if you want to organize the next one, that would be wonderful! Just pick a few dates that would work for you and see who can come!

Shannan
