And we meet at last!

Shelley et moi!

Last weekend, a blogger-friend became a friend in the flesh! Shelley and I "met" through Marc and Kylie's blog and now we met in real life because she was out visiting Southern Alberta. Shelley, Fraser, Carlynne, Dan, my Mom and I had fun chatting, laughing, drinking tea, and eating oli bollen, chocolate, and nuts. Lavalife, eat your heart out. The blog world has more to offer!

Dang! You got Oli Bollen! I can say that I'm more than a little jealous since I only got one REHEATED oli bollen when visiting my Opa and not a ton of icing sugar to go with it. Karyn ended up getting one as well and it was her first introduction to this fantastic dutch tradition.

Happy New Year!

it was so awesome hanging out with you, chatting around the kitchen island. I hope we get to do it again soon.

Is this the same Shelly who is related to Amanda (kickyboots) Brown? If so i have met her. She's pretty cool!

By the way, your kids are CUTE. You and Dustin did a great job of passing down your good looks to them :)
