When I talk about you all, my older sons tend to tease me about my friendships - "Is that a real friend, or a "4 real" friend, Mom?"   

And while many of us know each other already in real life, this weekend at our conference we got to meet some new 4 Real and CCM friends. After sharing lunch and conversation we posed for this picture.




Now I have several new "real" friends to go with all the old "real" friends!

More pictures here.

Wow, I hated to MISS ALL OF THAT but we didn't get back to Denver until 4 pm Saturday..... I'm sure it was absolutely amazing y'all....

Almost as great as the family reunion at the wedding of Rick's neice and the visit with an absolutely amazing Dominican in Nashville!!!!!

Would you be so kind as to put names with faces? (only if that is okay to do on the forum, please) This is a great photo, and I would like to get everyone right!

Thanks!

Fuzzy, we talked a bit when the picture was taken and I didn't get a good sense if everyone was comfortable with posting IDs with photo (so I PM'ed you). All Rocky Mountain Conference 4 Realers please identify yourself if you are so inclined.

I'm second from right in front row. And everyone knows Elizabeth and Kim, right?

I'm in pink with Karoline and Kim is to the right of me (if you are looking at the picture--your right) with Tess.
We had such a great time. It was so nice to put faces to screen names and to meet some people who read the boards but rarely post. I hope they'll start posting now--I'm going to miss them. I think MaryM might need to have a 4Real tutorial for real at her house to get some of these ladies going.

What a lovely picture of everyone. I'm glad you told me where Kim was Elizabeth 'cause I didn't know.

Something funny, hope you find it funny Elizabeth. I was telling my mum about 4real, the fourm and then the book. I got out the book to show mum and the dc heave a sigh and said irritably ' That picture, we see it everywhere'

I'm kind of on the left, in a green shirt, holding the baby with the big hat on. Thanks for organizing the get together, Mary!
