Are we planning on a Nestiepalooza this year?

I missed last year's, but is anyone interested in possibly doing a Nestiepalooza (big Nestie GTG) again this year?

If so, do you have any ideas of a place (park, beach, etc.) that it can be held at? What time of year would be most convenient for you? Any other ideas?

Re: Are we planning on a Nestiepalooza this year?

  • I don't think we had one last year, did we? I thought it was 2yrs go, maybe... hmm.... It's been a while since we did a big GTG, hasn't it?
  • I need to actually go to a get together. I have never met any of you :)

    Yes, I think this is right. Last one I went to I was still PG (and Char brought me some of that Hobee's coffee cake, mmmmmmmm!). I don't remember hearing about or going to anything last summer.

    I was totally about to say, "you sillies, that WAS last year. Lunabeam was pregnant and adorable, and Kyva was..." and then it dawned on me that lunabeam's little guy is freaking ONE and Kyva was like 4 months old! And I don't even remember the last time I saw Dianne 'round these parts. I'm selfishly glad there wasn't one this summer though because I would have had to miss it.

  • We should do one this summer. It could double as a send off for me moving away. Wink That doesn't sound self-centered at all. Stick out tongue It would need to be early summer as we plan to be moving in July.

    Me too! Not that I have any clue when I'll be in NorCal during the next year, but if I happen to be at the right time... ooooh boy!

    Yeah, I still don't know what exactly I'll be doing while C is deployed, but I'm sure spending some time back home will be part of it. Yay, indeed (which hopefully means I can either see you with your cutie bump or meet your little one, and that thought makes me very excited)! :) 

  • It would great if Stumpy and Andrea were both here at the same time! I definitely think we should try to have another Nestiepalooza and include the bumpies. We did that before and it was lots of fun.
  • I will do my best to make it, especially if it isn't too far away. I can think of lots of East Bay places that would be great and possibly central for Sacramento, South Bay, and North Bay peeps. 

    I would be willing to help plan it, but I cannot guarantee when our daughter is going to make her presence. If she takes after me, she'll be notably early, if she takes after Brian -- totally late. If she is a good blend, right on time ;-)

  • Yeah I can help plan, too but once we get to June I will be very busy looking for apts and jobs. I agree the best area would be E. Bay. If anyone has suggestions for places and times we could start a poll.
  • Is this typically in summer? on the weekend? tell me more!

    Yes, the two we've had have both been in the summer. Usually a wknd day, too.

    I would love to come. We'll be out in May for a wedding in Sebastopol and may be out once more later in the summer for a baby shower. Keep me posted on the timeframe you guys are thinking of and I'll see if I can coordinate a trip!

    That would be so cool. My life won't be complete until I meet Andrea someday! :) I probably won't make it out until the second half of the summer though, so I have a feeling I'm going to miss Nestiepalooza if it happens. The stars will align someday though, I'm sure!

    LOL at Pattypalooza. It has a ring to it! Well, it will all depend on when ppl want to do it. I wouldn't be able to do anything after June myself but when we've done it in the past I think it was later. That may work out better for more people. I do hope to see as many Nesties as I can before we move. We may just have to do a Hannahpalooza, too. Wink
