Sara -

We are in Dallas.  Does that count?  It isn't too far of a drive.  Let me know.

Absolutely THAT COUNTS!!

That's why I put "AREA"!!. I will wait and see if we get some more responses and set a date!

I would love to meet all of you!

:) Sara

P.S. Cass - what part of Dallas? My best friend lives in Midlothian!

Sara -

We are right in Dallas - Lake Highlands area by White Rock Lake.  Midlothian is about 45 miles south.  My husband is with the Environmental Protection Agency and is in New Orleans right now, but will be back Nov 8 and Kate, our 20 yr old daughter who has MM just went back to Stillwater, OK, where she goes to school, to see her friends.  She will not be in classes again until Jan, so if we could get together before than, that would be great.  He next break after that will be March, and we will be going out to Stanford for a week of check-up tests then.  

Just let me know.  I have family in Houston, so that isn't a problem.

Hey Cass:

I would love to plan something. I want to wait and see if I get anymore replies before setting any firm plans for a gathering. I know there are several people from TX on this board. So, I will let you know.

I am hoping to make a trip up there in early December to see my bestfriend. Maybe we can meet then!

Sara - That would be great!  Let me know when you will be here and I will try and make sure our daughter Kate is here also.  She is the one with MM, age 20, and would love to meet you also.

Talk with you soon.

Hugs, [smiley=hug.gif]

Cass

Sara,

Wish I could be there too...but unfortunately, geographically, I can't (I live in Hawaii)...but I will be there in spirit.  ;)  I just wanted to let you know that this is a great idea!  I applaud your efforts in organizing a get-together in your area!  ;;D  I hope everything turns out well.

Great job!

Take care,
Shan

Hi,

My daughter and I live just north of Dallas.  If you plan anything in the future, let me know.  That is not a bad drive for us!

Hi Rox -

I'm cass/kate on the postings.  Actually, I'm Cass, the mom and my daughter is Kate.  She has MM.  We live in Dallas in the Lake Highlands area - NE Dallas.  I see you are in Allen - not far at all.  In fact, my daughter Kate is a junior at OSU and her roommate lives in Allen.

My e-mail is "mamacass11@msn.com" so drop me a note if you have time.  Would love to meet you.

Hugs to you and Emmily,

Cass

A MM get together in Houston would be great. My mom thinks that would be "swell". My mom is Brenda Kelly. She has MM. We are from the Beaumont area. Mom and Dad live in Port Neches Tx. Please keep us posted about when there might be a gathering in Houston.

Sara,
Count me in if you get a group together in the Houston area.  I dont know if Kyle would come (he's the one with MM).  At 12, it doesn't sound like fun to him and he's very shy as well.

Well, everypne, it sounds like we have a good group together! Will this summer work for everyone. Maybe June? Before it is 115 degrees everyday... hehe :)

Email me at showse@hotmail.com to let me know if that sounds good to everyone and if you are already booked for vacation or anything in June so we can pick a date everyone can come. I will plan the details!

I would love to meet you all! Can't wait!

Sara, if you want to call Brenda or me @ 409 727 2864, 409 423 2064, cell 409 718 5457. We will be in Houston in May for a scan, but the date isn't set yet. Looking to meeting you.

Bobby

Post by Sara on Apr 17th, 2006 at 8:21am
Bobby:


Just let me know when you schedule the scan and I'll meet you all for lunch or something!

Also, I am thinking June 10th if that works for everyone??

What would you all like to do? I was thinking a bowling alley might be good. People can eat, drink and mingle while bowling. Any other ideas anyone??

Also, please email me if you are planning on coming so I can get an idea of how many will be there. Maybe I can get a group rate or a reservation!

Thanks!

Hey, Sara!

June 3rd works for us.  I would have never thought of meeting at a bowling alley, but it sounds like a good idea!   Kyle would probably come to that!  They will usually put bumpers in the gutters for the younger ones so everyone can have fun! What do you think of inviting Dr. Dauser?

Sue

Sara -
June 3 looks good for us.  I love bowling, even though I suck!  Jon and Kate both like it too.  Count us in, and keep us posted.
Hugs,
Cass

Title: Re: Meeting in Houston, TX area

yeah!!

I will keep  you all posted as it gets closer.

Title: Re: Meeting in Houston, TX area
Post by Sara on May 2nd, 2006 at 3:50pm
OK. I have a question regarding what time you would all like to do it. Would morning, afternoon or evening be  best?

Let me know. I am trying to find an available place and prices. Also, In your response, just let me know how many bowlers will with you!

Thanks!

:) Sara

Sue:

Sorry I haven't responded to your question about inviting Dr. Dauser. If you would like to, you are more than welcome to. He isn't my doctor, so it is up to you.

The more the merrier.

I have actually invited my siblings and parents. They were there with me through everything and thought they might like to come. Everyone feel free to invite whoever you like and try to give me a rough number of people as soon as possible.

I am post poning the June 3rd date. I am sorry but there are only a few people that I have been able to get a hold of. I was hoping for a bigger turn out. If any of you want to meet, just email me!

I would love to meet all of you!

Thanks :)

Hey, Sara!

Sorry I haven't checked in - it's been hectic this last week of school!  We are still interested if it works out (there would be 4 of us)  My husband has to work until 2 that afternoon, but we're open after that!  If the bowling doesn't work out, maybe we could just meet at a pizza place.  We're in Sugar Land and could pretty easily get anywhere in the Houston area.

Sue!

I just saw your post. So sorry. I would love to get together anytime. I can even drive to Sugarland. It isn't far at all. This weekend and MAYBE the next I'll be out of town. But, maybe the one after that?? What is that... umm, the 24th or 25th?

Let me know. You can email me at sara_howse@hotmail.com

Thanks!
