It's been discussed for far too long.
It's time to stop all the big talk and actually put something in place!
Who's up for a bloggy get away?
That's right I said Bloggy Get Away!
How wonderful does 2-3 days with all of your BBF's {Bloggy Best Friend} sound? It sound like almost more fun than I can handle!
Location?...
* Although it's south Dallas is a fairly central city for everyone.
* DFW is one of the largest, if not the largest, airports and according to one very smart BBF it should be easy to get in and out of from any city you're coming from and hopefully a little less expensive too.
* I know it's not Florida but it is a warm state. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that this insane winter most of y'all have been getting a pounding from will not join us {I have absolutely nothing cute and warm}.
Dates?...
* I'm thinking a Friday-Sunday will work best.
* To help avoid winter weather I also think a weekend in March or April will be good, any further into the year and I'll go crazy from the anticipation!
* Here are a few dates that will work for three BBF's already 100% in! April 1-3 * April 8-10 * May 20-22.
* I've limited it to three dates to prevent it from becoming too hard to find one that works for most everyone. Please look over your calendar, talk it over with your husband, check airfare for those dates, choose one that works best for you and let me know as soon as you can. I will announce the "winning date" based on the highest amount of BBF's able to attend.
Hotel?...
* We will/can share rooms to help keep the cost down.
* I want to move fairly quickly so that I can book my flight before rates go too crazy and get it on my calendar before anything else gets added. So within the next 7-14 days I will start getting everything in order. We will make all hotel decisions {I will need help from anyone familiar with Dallas as to not book us at the roach-motel} and choose roommates as a group. If you happen to join in late, no big deal you'll just be stuck with whatever hotel we choose and either rooming alone or on a cot in another room.
I'm hoping this will be a great weekend and will become something that we will do at least a couple of times a year in different locations or maybe even a cruise!
I'm totally JAZZED about this and have already started eating better and working out again so I can wear my jeans comfortably and not look like I eat small children for breakfast!
Come on...meet me in the big D, I know you want to!
Happy Valentines Day!

I vote for the May dates. Chances of warmer weather, plus more time to get a bigger allowance and a smaller ass.
All those dates work with my schedule. I'm familiar with Dallas so if you want me to book the hotel, I can. There are TONS located at and near the airport.
Woooo hoooo!!
Wait...will Paul be coming?
Tempting...very tempting...I'll get back to you on whether I can be in or not, but May would probably be best - gives me more time to sell bottle caps to pay for it ;) Or at least see if we're getting a tax refund or not!
I AM ABSOLUTELY IN!!!!!! You took the work right out form under me!!!
Please let me help plan the location, since I lived in Dallas for 15 years!!! And I am less than 3 hours away and I am going there this weekend AND in March.....
Could possibly do the 1st weekend in April. Definitely not the second weekend. And May looks the best!

That would be so much fun! I think there's another blogger I've come across who is trying to do a Texas meet-up!
Girl. So want to do this!!!!!!
This is awesome!!! Obviously, it would be super easy for me to get to Dallas, so it would all depend on the husband and finances.
What a fun idea! Who all is already in?
I would love to do this....I'll check with my husband. I'm guessing May would work best for me.
Did you tell Connie that she couldn't touch your boobs?
Becca...you can totally book the hotel. I didn't mean to get you all worked up! ;)
I soooooo want to do this. Not sure if it is doable though. Tickets are looking like they are around $400... OUCH! I'll keep my eyes out for better deals. If I did get to go I would imagine May would be best for me too. I'm voting for Oregon to be one of the locals one of these times... we have GREAT Vineyards here... LOTS of wine tastings anyone??? LOL
I really want to do this, but this year just isn't the best time finances wise. I hope you guys will do it again next year and I will be there with bells on!
Jason's getting out of the Navy in May and everything is so up in the air for us... so it is best for me to save my pennies right now. But I will be thinking of you all!
I'm two and a half hours away and I would LOVE to be there!!! I'm liking the May dates, too!
You already know I'm in!
I read this and then forgot to come back and comment.
I'll make any of those dates work. Whatever is good with everyone else will be good with me!
Oh how fun would that be. I don't think I would be able to, but May would be best for me as my son should be weaned by then
