I just had to share this picture, taken at the Friday night kick-off party at the amazing Gingerbread House. Here is Queen Pauline, with colleenk on the left, and on the right Charisse (from Internet Brands) and Jan (jgk). The party, and everything else so far has been beyond wonderful. I can't thank the committee and everyone who worked on this weekend enough for such a fabulous event -- and it's not even half over yet!

- Roz

Absolutely! Ditto.

Oh, and so every one knows, that photo wasn't photoshopped, Pauline isn't on a stool, and the other ladies aren't kneeling. Big Grin

So the mystery is - am I tall or are those three gals short? Yes, is the answer to both!!

I LOVE that photo!!

My first thought after seeing the photo ~ Wow is Pauline tall! I was quite surprised after all the other photos I have seen of Pauline. Sounds like everyone is having a blast!

Too funny Roz! I was actually hoping I was taller than Charisse but no such luck, we were judged to be the same height. Anyone would look tall standing next to us. As MoJen's husband Chris kept referring to me all weekend, I am, as is Charisse 4'10". Jan seems to beat us by a hair (we all were barefoot). As my mother used to say. "Good things come in smal packages." I could always then count on one of my brothers to retort, "so does poison."
It was so much fun to finally meet Jan (my ST "twin") and Charisse to compare notes in the "short lane." What a great weekend-more photos and thoughts to come.

Well, you weren't quite the shortest one there, Colleen. I think you still have a fraction of an inch on Casey.

For the record, I am 5' 10", the same height as Kelly, Kathy's daughter!! Still, this explains why my suitcases are heavier - I have a foot more of clothing!! Dorky Traveler

Thanks for posting that photo Roz!

That was a great night (and weekend) meeting everybody! And Colleen - Shhhhh on our actual heights! How am I supposed to pull off telling people I'm 4'11?! Wink

My old boss used to call me across the office (in a nice way of course) "Half Pint!"

Happy Happy Too funny. And I am with Pauline about why my suitcase is always so full and heavy - I'm only 5'8", but that is close enough.
