Today was the day. Dh and I drove downtown and rode around to find a place to park near the hotel where Bamie and her dh were staying.
Just like she said, she was waiting at the Starbucks in the lobby.
Just so you'll all know, Bamie is one cool chick! Just as Southern in real life as she is on the screen, too! We talked about our kids, diets, houses, housework, clothes, families, you name it.
After we'd chatted a little while, the three of us (her dh got stuck in AYSO meetings) went across to Peachtree Center and had lunch at a Mexican restaurant.
I had this yummy soup which would have been totally OP if I hadn't stuck the "condiments" in it.
After lunch we walked around some more, then wandered back over to the hotel. We talked some more, then said our goodbyes, since dh and I had some errands to run.
We exchanged phone #'s and the next time I'm in Huntsville, I'm dragging Bamie over to meet the clan.
Unfortunately, she forgot her camera and my dd drove off this morning with our camera in her car! So, pictures will have to wait til our next meeting.
Okay I'm gotta go figure out some dinner for the gang.
