Blogger Buddy Love

Last week in my video post, I spoke about a special thoughtful momento from our Toronto Trip in June that I received in the mail from my blogger buddy Cat .  I think it is safe to “Let the Cat out of the bag” (omg I crack myself up! lol) and share with you all the framed photo that Cat sent:

This is our first night together in Toronto at our “Wine & Cheese”.  From left to right: Amy, Jen, Cat, Jaime, Tasha, and me in the front. 

We all know how hard core Amy is about exercise and sports and she is so much so that she skipped out for a while to play baseball with an old friend who lived in the area and then met back up with us.  I think by the time she returned we all were sufficiently professional wine “tasters” by that point I can tell yas that much!  It was the perfect way to kick off our weekend of fun in Toronto at Tasha’s house.

With the photo came the cutest card:

With the sweetest note that made me cry…yes..it’s true:

I promptly put it up on my fireplace mantle and fits perfectly there with my fresh purdy flowers (I think it was the fact that they were my wedding colours that drew me to them):

Thank you again Cat, you are quite a special and thoughtful gal to send that gift.  I will be forever touched. ;-)

P.S. Tasha is currently in Nice and says that so far Barcelona has been the most fun city yet and something about having to take it easy on the wine for a while ;-)

I live to receive her email updates!

It sounds like you had a great time in Toronto with the gals! It's great how you're able to meet wonderful people on here, but then meet them in person too!

I'm so glad to hear that Tasha thinks Barcelona is the best because that's number one on my list of places I MUST visit!!!
