Daytona Experience l

So, my hubby, brother in law and i made the drive, we left the condo at 430am and pulled in a bit after 830 which was awesome.. we walked in at 915 when they opened the doors to the public and got in line.. Of course my first stop was BP.net table I finally got to meet Christie while we were waiting in line to get in, she was sooo friendly!! I also got to meet Judy, Emily, Robin, Nate, saw Brian (bhb) in person lol.. which i was so excited about (total dork i know) Talked to Chewy which was cool, saw Kara (husband spoke to her for a few) Lori from BHB, and alot of other familiar faces, getting to see the different snakes, morphs, leos, cresteds, exc was amazing... animals i have only dreamed of seeing in person. What an AWESOME freakin expo... for real!! We walked around for hours on end and by the time we left we were totally exhausted! A bit sore in the toes, legs, hips... and light in the pockets :D

Heres what happens when you get up at 4:00am to go to an expo hahaha... they would so kill me! (was SO NOT posed)

There was a table "timberline" who was giving away boxes of 500 crickets as well as "Reptile lunch" which also had a bunch of free crickets in it. We also picked up a thermostat, cricket food, and a few other things. Were definitely going next year!!!

Im likin the BP.net goodies!! I wish I was there! Nice pick ups!

BP.net had a bunch of really nice things promoting the website, i was very impressed :gj:

Lol! I just talk A LOT! :oops: (If you get me going... I can't stop)

It's so rare to be able to not have to be a mom that I get downright giddy. :doh:

I cant even imagine you with children!! You look so young, had I known that we wouldve had even more to talk about HAHAHAHAHA. It is sooo nice to be able to not play "mommy" for a change. It was the first "12 hour break" we have had since our children were born, four years ago! Boy was it NICE... Darren is talking about taking our older boy next year, screw that leave him home lol.. i had FUN
