As always, I wish I had taken more photos of PEOPLE at the show. But, the product just keeps luring. Then, you run across a fellow paper addict and all you do is chat and forget to grab the camera.
Well, I did snap a few.
These are my flying buddies: Ashley and Karolyn. Great way to start the trip off right.
Waiting for the shuttle at the airport. The Paper Crafts team (Kerri Miller, myself and Betsy pictured) arrived just behind us; it took three shuttle vans to whisk us to the convention center hotels. Hee.
Although is was pretty chilly, about 20 of us hit Disneyland for the afternoon/evening. Didn't take very many photos, but here's a cute shot of Julie, myself and Betsy - gotta at least take the classic castle photo, right?
Day One at CHA: I spent quite a bit of time helping out my sweet friend Kim at her booth: Paper Smooches Stamps. Here are Carole, myself, Cath (Moxie Paper Crafts Editor), Kim and Karolyn.
Paper Crafts and Creating Keepsakes hosted a booth event on Day Two. It was really fun to reconnect with gals I haven't seen in several years. Left to right is: Sonda, Stephanie, Tania and myself.
This was a mini reunion of the Paper Crafts cruise - cruise mates Candyce, Perrie, Teri, Sharon and myself. (We missed Susan in this shot - she was off chatting somewhere).
More cuties at the show: Windy, Julie, Emily, Vera, Cammie and Betsy. Good times.
Here are my breakfast pals (top: Windy and Julie) and my roomies, Betsy and Kalyn. Loved sharing a room with them, so nice and easy going.
Well, CHA trends are coming up. I have a sneak up at Paper Crafts Connection about a mini-trend I spotted (and already crafted), so check it out!
Later.
Looks like a lot of fun - new products; fun booths and old friends! What's not to like?

Friends are good! So glad you're mine. :) We've got a date on a big boat in Sept., right?
