I met Natalie & crew today

Natalie and her fam were in northern virginia for the holidays and today we got together for lunch.

Larry and Nat seemed a little tired and poor Stasia was sick :( But they were polite enough to sit through lunch with me and chat even though I delayed them on their trip back to Massa. :p

Here's the few shots that were taken:
1.) Poor Stasia
2.) Me taken by Nat
3.) Art (taken by Nat)
4.) "Hey kids, how do you feel about driving back home today?!" :D

That's you Rick?
:rolleyes: :D :p ;)
I want to meet Nat!

Let's all have one huge gathering here in SLC!

Brian

Yup! That's me!

I'll let Natalie represent herself - the only good shot I have is of her picking her nose :rolleyes: From the Boston gathering.

I'm sure she could do better!

SLC sounds good - it's a long drive from DC though.

Rick

LOL Rick, you're such a ham! I dunno, I'd say that's about a 9 3/4 on the cuteness scale.

Aww poor Stacia. :( I hate it when kids are sick.

Yeah SLC!
Let's do it!

I didn't know you were in the DC area...
Had I know that, I would said something when I was there back in May.
Don't know when I'll be getting there again.
Brian

A ham? Yes. Lara thanks for putting it nicely :D I was "posing" for the camera.

Yeah, I felt bad for Stasia too. She threw up all over mommy! Right there in the restaurant. When Natalie had her in the bathroom she said Anastasia kept saying "sowwy I throwed up" to all the ladies who came in. How cute is that?!

Rick

Yup. I don't think many people realize that northern virginia and southern maryland are the suburbs of Washington DC. Lots of work around here! Lots of traffic too. I was supposed to drive south to Richmond today but at 2:30 all the major routes were gridlocked. I turned around and came home :confused:

If I'm ever in the SLC area again, I'll let you know!

A definite hammy pose Rick. ;) Either that or you were checking out the sprinkler system, heh.

Ewww, poor Mommy!...and awwww, even more to Stacia! What a sweet little girl to be sowwy.

Oh yeah!

That sprinkler system checked out great! :D

Rick

I know that Northern VA is considered a suburb of DC, it's just hard to think that a city in another state can be that.
Here in the West, you have to travel a good two hours or more to be in another state, and it is still far from a major town or city..
YES! Let me know when you are here in SLC!
Brian
:cool:

Rick a ham? I never would have guessed that from his posts here! ;) But I guess I'd be antidisestablismentarianistic too if I heard the word "bling" on AM radio... We felt pretty lucky to have Natalie at the Chicago gathering this year.

Yes Natalie is tha bomb. Don't tell her I said that.

I am a ham :D Geez I thought everyone's online personalities differed from their real ones maybe I was wrong ;)

Rick

BTW - When Nat gets back up here I want you all to give her a big hug.

She was playing with my little coolpix all day during lunch and when I asked her what happened to her little camera she told me she gave it to her sister (or in-law) who didn't have a camera at all. Is that sweet? I almost handed her mine :(
