1. Getting to spend 4 days with my BFF who lives across the country now. ❤️
2. Four younger. 🙎🏽‍♂️🙎🏼‍♀️🙎🏼‍♀️🙎🏼‍♂️ Haha, we occasionally make mailman jokes about my one brother, which my mom does NOT appreciate. 😜 (He‘s dark like her, 4 of us are pasty like Dad.)
3. Three! 82, 82, and 84.
4. SO SO MUCH. Got all 3 of those grandparents to take DNA tests this year!!
5. EST for the next 24 hrs. Then back to AZ! #friyayintro

BarbaraTheBibliophage I‘m so excited you‘ll have DNA from your grands. I wish I could‘ve done mine. They passed away over 30 years ago. But two of my aunts have done it (one each side). I‘m lucky people before me did a lot of work. 🙌🏻 6y

Cinfhen Yay!!! I know a lot can happen between now & July but I‘m glad you‘re both thinking about it @Chrissyreadit @ErinGoBragh1011 7y

MicheleinPhilly @LauraBeth @saresmoore Ya‘ll should road trip together. 😉 7y

quietjenn Oooooo, that sounds pretty darn awesome! 7y

LauraBeth @micheleinphilly I totally would road trip with @saresmoore if it wasn‘t for my kid‘s pesky birthday! So y‘all go and have fun while Virgil will be guiding me through Dante‘s Circles of Hell - because I‘m having a bunch of 14 year old girls sleep over at my house that day... (edited) 7y

BarbaraTheBibliophage This looks amazing! Can‘t wait! 7y

MicheleinPhilly @LauraBeth 😖 7y

ValerieAndBooks Wow, this will be great!! You and @MicheleinPhilly are awesome for working on this!! 7y

Jess This is perfect! Can‘t wait! 7y

ValerieAndBooks @Billypar I remember you saying you have family in the area? If so maybe you can plan to visit that weekend 😊 7y

emilyhaldi Well!!! Maybe I need to come to philly 😆🥂 7y

Billypar @ValerieAndBooks This sounds like so much fun! And yes- my parents and sister are nearby. It's a little doubtful that this particular weekend will work but I will keep this in mind if that should change. 7y

Cinfhen Don‘t even mess with me @emilyhaldi That would be BEYOND amazing❣️❣️❣️ @Billypar @Jas16 if you guys could make it happen, you‘d make a bunch of Littens SUPER HAPPY 🤞🏼😊❤️ 7y

Cinfhen This place does look awesome @ValerieAndBooks @BarbaraTheBibliophage @niftytiffd @EadieB @quietjenn 💚so excited to see/ meet u guys😃 @GripLitGrl how far are u from Philly??? How about you @lildeb_8 ??? 7y

Cinfhen Yay!!! Looking forward @jess 7y

Cinfhen Darn @LauraBeth can‘t your daughter celebrate her bday another weekend?!? Am I right, @MicheleinPhilly !!! 😘 7y

LauraBeth @Cinfhen I‘m always jammed up that week in July because not only is it my daughter‘s bday, but my husband has a birthday three days later and our anniversary is three days prior. It was poor planning on my part. 😂 @MicheleinPhilly 7y

Cinfhen That‘s a whole lot of celebrations around July 4 holiday @LauraBeth 😹😹I guess 1 bbq knocks em all out 😻 7y

lildeb_8 @Cinfhen I'm between 45 minutes to an hour south of Philly in Delaware. 7y

Cinfhen So maybe you CAN JOIN us!!! Save the date and let me know..... @lildeb_8 🤞🏼 7y

Billypar @Cinfhen Not least of all me! 😀 7y

MicheleinPhilly @LauraBeth I agree with @Cinfhen - have one BBQ and knock ‘em all out at once. “Please come to our BBQ to celebrate EVERYTHING.” 7y

Cinfhen What @MicheleinPhilly said @LauraBeth you can even bring the kid, the husband, the dog & cats!!!! 7y

GripLitGrl I'm like 2 1/2-3 hours away. 7y

Cinfhen Oooh, that‘s far 😞bummer @GripLitGrl 7y

TsundokuAleax This is wonderful! I am getting so excited about this and possibly debating I I need to take a half day Monday. 7y

GripLitGrl What time do you think it would go to? I'm actually considering it for a day trip it does begin early enough. I'm gonna try to map it all out this weekend.See how cazy it would be to do. It sounds super fun & would be great to meet you & others in person. That book store sounds amazing!!! You sure put together a sweet event. 7y

Cinfhen Well, we have the area reserved for 2 hours but I‘m guessing/hoping others will want to walk around & stay longer...check out bookstore & pier...so maybe until 4:30-5:00 @GripLitGrl if hubby wants to come of course he‘s invited to meet the crew 💖💖💖 (edited) 7y

Cinfhen It‘s such a fun location @TsundokuAleax @MrBook should be VERY HAPPY with all the food trucks!!!! 7y

GripLitGrl Awesome thanks for the hubby invite too😀 definitely going to look into it more sounds like i can get home at a decent time too so it's sounding really good for me to make it👍 7y

Cinfhen That would be fantastic!!! @GripLitGrl and anyone else reading this feel free to bring your SO if they want to join or don‘t want to be home alone💙 7y

MrBook 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 7y

lildeb_8 @Cinfhen I'm in! It's on the calendar. Possibly my son too - he can't resist a used book store. He's 19. Is that okay? 7y

ValerieAndBooks @MicrobeMom maybe you‘d be able to do this 😊?? 7y

MicrobeMom @ValerieAndBooks I hope so! I will try and save the date. Sounds like fun!!! 7y

Chrissyreadit I will have my teens with me if we make it- sounds like a lot for them to do there too! 7y

Lmstraubie OMGosh!!! This is going to be AMAZING! Can't wait to meet up with old friends and meet some new ones 🙂 7y

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I soooo wish I could come 💔 7y

Cinfhen Yay!!! Of course bring whomever you like @Chrissyreadit @lildeb_8 ~I‘m sure teens would have a great time at SSHP 💖I‘m so sorry I forgot to tag you @MicrobeMom hope you‘ll join us and @Lmstraubie it wouldn‘t be a #PhillyMeetUp without you!!!! Can‘t wait to see u🤗🤗🤗im really sad it‘s sooo far from you @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks YOU will be VERY missed 😪😪😪 7y

Lmstraubie @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I think you are in need of a long bookish weekend with bookish friends to do bookish things. It would be WONDERFUL if you could join us!!! 7y

mrozzz Oh wow this will be so fun! If I‘m not out of the country that weekend I‘ll try to make it!! 7y

Cinfhen Hi @Rory are you near or around the Philly area? Would love for you to join!!! I‘ll add your name to the list for further announcements 😀Thanks for sharing the news @niftytiffd 7y

ErinGoBragh1011 I am really excited about this! 6y

DanaManiac I am so excited!! Woohoo! 6y

Robothugs Yay! I can‘t wait! 😄 @BarbaraTheBibliophage are you taking the train? 6y

Cinfhen I accidentally reposted but I‘m excited that you guys are excited 😜 @ErinGoBragh1011 @Dana1084 @Robothugs ....it‘s the 2 week countdown this Sunday so be prepared to see more reminder posts 😂😂 6y

Robothugs Bahaha 😆😆 6y

minkyb Sadly I cannot travel to the meetup. Very sad. But I look forward to photos!!! 6y

TsundokuAleax I took Monday off so I can stay late this year! 6y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Robothugs Yes, definitely taking the train! Hope we can be travel buddies this year. 😍 6y

Cinfhen 😿😿 @minkyb one day 6y

Cinfhen That‘s some serious dedication @TsundokuAleax 💋 6y

Cinfhen Yay @BarbaraTheBibliophage @Robothugs I‘m looking forward to seeing you both ❣️❣️❣️ 6y

Robothugs @BarbaraTheBibliophage Definitely!! We will have to coordinate on a Goodreads message. @cinfhen can‘t wait to see you, too!! 6y

BookaholicNatty @Cinfhen I can‘t wait!!!!!! I just scheduled my baby sitter yesterday!!! 😁😁 6y

BookaholicNatty @Dana1084 dana I can‘t wait to see you!!!!❤️❤️❤️ 6y

BookaholicNatty @MicrobeMom are you coming to this?? 6y

Cinfhen Woohoo @BookaholicNatty we are almost 2 weeks away!!!! 6y

BookaholicNatty @Cinfhen I am super duper excited!! Is there anything I can do to help you or is there anything we need to bring? 6y

MicrobeMom @bookaholicnatty. I hope to. I get from a OCMD the day before. Are you going? Maybe we can carpool? 6y

TsundokuAleax @BarbaraTheBibliophage and @Robothugs what times are you guys thinking for the train? Currently debating if I want to drive so I can leave whenever or just take the train. 6y

TsundokuAleax @Cinfhen when you start work at 4 am, you have to really like people or want to do something to make Sunday plans like this. You are so worth the day off. I had a blast last year and was kinda upset that I had to leave way before I wanted to. 6y

Cinfhen That‘s so nice that u feel that way @TsundokuAleax last year was such a fun group!!! This year the group may be 2x the size - and I‘m going into NY that night so I can‘t stay long.... 6y

Cinfhen I have NO CLUE @BookaholicNatty 😜🤭 do u have any suggestions for us !?!! 6y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @TsundokuAleax Thinking of the one that arrives in PHL at 1:05. And then taking the 4:55 to leave. It‘d be great if you and @Librarybelle joined us! 6y

Librarybelle @BarbaraTheBibliophage I was going to message you what train you were thinking to take! @TsundokuAleax , I take the train from Harrisburg, so if you want to, we could meet up at the Harrisburg train station and then connect with the Lancaster crew on the train or at 30th Street Station. 6y

TsundokuAleax I love this plan! Will work on getting my tickets. 6y

DanaManiac @BookaholicNatty me toooo!!! 🤗💕 6y

Cinfhen @BookBabe is a TOTAL BABE....She‘s stunning and her skin is UH.MAY.ZING😍🙌🏻we just happened to have an AWESOME group of people...it was a bit of luck I think @ErinSueG that so many Littens live near philly and were available to meet...maybe because it was summer people had more flexibility?!?! I don‘t have any plans to be in Philly until maybe beginning of July.... just get word out is my best advice 7y

Erinsuereads That is @Cinfhen!! I'll start putting some feelers out there for thus summer! I already have a great venue in mind and everything! 7y

Cinfhen Good luck @ErinSueG 😄it‘s really fun to meet face to face❤️ 7y

Librarybelle Meet ups are so much fun! Thanks for the tag, @Cinfhen ! The #PhillyMeetUp was so much fun last year, and I‘d love to do another one. I live in the Harrisburg area, so my schedule isn‘t always the easiest to travel to Philly, but I‘d like to be kept in the loop, @BookaholicNatty . 7y

BookaholicNatty @Librarybelle I will definitely keep you in the loop!!! Did you all meet on a Saturday last summer? @cinfhen 7y

LiteraryinPA I live in the Lancaster area, but depending on when it is I might be able to go into Philly. Please keep me in the loop, and thanks for planning! 7y

Cinfhen We met on a Sunday, Natalie and we were lucky because the weather was gorgeous and the city felt empty... really hope we can meetup again @Librarybelle 7y

Jess I‘m in NJ and am always up for a meet up or a bookstore crawl. Thanks! 7y

Chrissyreadit I live 3 hours away- but am looking to do a history trip into Philly this Spring. What bookstores are recommended for a side stop? @Cinfhen @ErinSueG 7y

Cinfhen It‘s not a bookstore @Chrissyreadit but the The Rosenbach Museum looks really cool and I‘d like to arrange a tour for our meetup in the summer if possible..... 7y

minkyb I live in MA but have a daughter in NYC and family in Phili. I missed the last meetup but would try to plan a road trip if you meet up in the summer! @Cinfhen @BookaholicNatty 7y

DanaManiac @BookaholicNatty yay! You know I‘m down!! 🎉 7y

Cinfhen Yay !!!!! @minkyb as soon as I book my summer flights I‘ll let u know.... would love to meet in person 😊💚🙏🏻 7y

Chrissyreadit Thanks @Cinfhen I will check into it - and try to keep track of the meetup info. I‘m surprised there has not been one in DC area. 7y

Chrissyreadit @BookaholicNatty I will keep my eyes open for more info as you post. 7y

minkyb I am determined @Cinfhen 🤗 7y

TieDyeDude I'm interested. I missed the last one because of a music festival. I'm also part of a monthly book club in Philly. Check my posts if you're interested. 7y

TieDyeDude @Chrissyreadit You should definitely check out Baldwin Book Barn. It's pretty epic! 7y

Chrissyreadit @GoodForCirculation will add it to my to do! 7y

quietjenn Please keep me in the loop. I missed the last one, but maybe! 7y

ValerieAndBooks A Philly Litsy meet-up is always a great idea! Do keep me in the loop @GoodForCirculation! Thanks for tagging me @Cinfhen. Maybe @Aleida and @MicrobeMom would be interested too? I know there is another local who I recall attended West Chester U, but her name is escaping me right now 🤦‍♀️! 7y

ValerieAndBooks Oops somehow I cut something out when editing! Meant to say keep me in the loop @BookaholicNatty AND to agree with @GoodForCirculation that Baldwin Book Barn is a must-see for @Chrissyreadit ! 7y

MicrobeMom @BookaholicNatty sounds like fun! Please keep me in the loop! 7y

Aleida Anyone interested in a meet up at Longwood Gardens? I can take everyone on a book store tour of southern Chester county. 7y

Aleida @GoodForCirculation I would include Baldwin‘s in my local tour! 7y

BookaholicNatty @Aleida what is your email? I‘m trying to put together something super special and I love the Longwood Garden idea. I would love to chat some more with you about it! ❤️ my email is natalietull4@aol.com 😊 7y

Aleida That‘d be great! Bibliophile51@yahoo.com 7y
