Meeting up with Susanne!

Susanne arrived on Saturday in Orlando and some of us HOP girls were able to meet her. We were planning on Downtown Disney, but it was POURING rain! So we opted to meet her in the lobby of the Animal Kingdom Lodge. It turned out very nice as they had little "living room" seating areas everywhere and there was plenty of room for us to sit and chat.

Here's a reinactment of Amy and I running through the rain to get inside!




I didn't get any good group shots, but Susanne did on her camera so we'll have to wait and see hers. But here is Susanne and Heather in the giftshop with Alyson. They found a flamingo!




This is what Ken looked like most of the night...he just kept snapping away! haha It was so cool to meet both of them!




This is how Heather met us in the lobby...with a bottle of wine and empty wine glasses (she actually initially had at least 5 glasses with her) We couldn't figure out if she was just showing off how much she already had to drink or what! She actually brought them for US to share with her! (how nice of her) Unfortunately, she didn't have any margaritas or anything a little stronger in her purse. haha




And this is how she finally ended up drinking the wine when she realized none of us wanted any!




Here's a cute shot of our kids in front of some naked African statues. (can you see their butts?) The kids actually behaved in front of the naked statues...




Amy and I did not...




And here is a photo we took just for Gaye...don't remember exactly why. (Except I'M wearing Crocs!!!) Oh, I think we were showing how "un-Diva" like our shoes were and we thought of her! haha


We had a great time with Susanne and Ken! It was so nice to finally meet them!
