I will be coming to Galveston for the dinner only tomorrow night. I am bringing my mom and my 2 kids (son 15 and daughter 12). Is anyone else bringing their kids? I live about an hour from Galveston and they are old enough to stay home, but they fight like....well, brother and sister, and I would not have a good time worrying about them. I am brand new here (submitted to insurance, but no date) and am nervous as heck about this dinner, so I will be the one with the "deer in the headlights look." I am not normally a shy person, so I am not sure what I am freaking about. Anyway, just rambling on...

There will be hunters looking for that deer in the headlights!! LOL! I mean GREETERS! LOLOL!

This particular group of crazies will NOT let you feel like a stranger for more than the second it takes them to realize they haven't met you yet.
Be prepared for hugs. They are almost all huggers. Once you're hugged...you're family. Just the way it is.

Have a blast and hug some of the loonies for me too!! Oh, and welcome to the craziest ride you've ever been on!

Thanks ya'll. I don't why I am nervous since I have "met" all of you on here and everyone has been extremely nice. I am a hugger too so all will be good after the first one!
