Sesame Place

Ok so I know there has been lots of talk
about how everyone would love to meet and
I think I may have come up with an idea.
Im thinking Sept of 08.
Sesame Place has group rates of as low as
$20! anyone with a child over 2 (or that
cant pass for under 2 lol) would need a
ticket. We can also find a hotel in the
area (ive looked at a few that are cheap
like a Comfort Inn)
that could give us a group rate and would
have free transportation to the park.
Transportation to the hotel would be up to
you but we coud find ways to raise money
towards getting everyone their hotel
rooms.
For food we can choose a hotel with free
contiental breakfast and use one of their
meeting halls to have dinner. They have
lunch with the characters at the park that
we could prob. get a discount on.
I was thinking we could all look at yard
sales or thrift shops for things that
would sell on Ebay, like clothes or toys.
Any profit made from the sell would go to
a paypal account.
You could also start a change jar for your
own funds, I bet between now n Sept you
could get a decent amount.
Any other ideas would be greatly
appreciated. Come on guys! we can totally
pull this off!

I live 15 minutes away from Sesame Place,
so I'll definitely be there any time any
of you ladies decide to make the trip.
I could definitely help coordinate things
on this end, considering I'm closest.

I have nothing to say in this post but I
didn't like my tally being 666.

i highly doubt we'd be able to make it in
'08. we have a better chance at having the
money in '09, plus esme will be old enough
to have fun too.
betsy's a teacher so september probably
doesn't work for her either.

I'm actually spending fall of 08 just
building up my portfolio, so I don't have
to be at school or anything, just going to
portfolio interviews and working on it.
So I really could do something at that
date. The thing is a plane ticket to the
States would probably be really expensive,
and I don't have a passport. Then I would
also have to worry about transportation
from the airport and such.
Man, it would be so cool.
Someone should write to Oprah. Maybe she
will fund it, if we made it all smooshy
like "we've seen each other through the
ups and downs of motherhood, but still,
we're painfully seperated by our computer
screens" sadface sadface.

I'd love to do it this summer but we're
going to have so much going on with
starting to remodel the cabin & we
want to go on vacation somewhere so money
is probably going to be a little tight.
Summer 09 would probably be better for us.

too small. We're making plans for summer
09.

ya money does duck but thats y i figured
we could raise it in different ways.
Roan will only be a few months old too and
i suggested sept cuz its cheaper then but
we could also do like june of 09 for the
same price...
does everyone wanna try and do that? I
know its still 18 mo away but the more we
prepare the better we can make it!

ya but its only $20 and we might be able
to raise more money by then. i think it
would be weird to ask for donations but
brave ppl could. I just think if we all
start our own piggy bank for it since its
like a vacation too.
We could always try Oprah but i think wed
get farther puting our heads together n
figuring out stuff to make n sell.

We're without a doubt going. We've been
planning this for about a month or so now.
We're probably going at the end of June.
I have to see when Jesse's off.
