This sounds SO fabulous! I will be a late addition if I can swing either--DH will be starting treatment soon and we're not sure just what we're up against. I've got daughters on both coasts so I could potentially see one of girls and the YLF ladies in one swoop!

Squee! So exciting that Inge is going to be there! I wish I could be too but will have to do with the photos and stories. I'm not ruling out NYC though, depending on the timing.

Sounds amazing!! Excited for Inge especially! I’m looking for tickets but might be in the NYC group instead!

Oh I hope I can make it to the one in New York!

I would love to come! April 11 sounds like it may work for me! I would love to see you all. Last time I came to Seattle for YLF, I had my 3 kids in tow and the youngest was 1! Can't believe it's been 11 years!

GOLDENPIG That was a fun read and cool to see photos!

I'd love to go, but maybe will try for NY cause I think there's a commuter train I could take (if I can get someone that's comfortable in cities to go with me). Annapolis (40k people) is at the edge of my comfort zone!

Inge

Oh how I would love to join you! And I'm only a few hours south of Seattle, but I have a torn ligament and a fracture in my ankle after stepping off a ladder thinking I was at the bottom when I was not. So it will depend how well I am able to walk when the time comes. Hopefully there will be occasions to join in that don't require too much notice. It sounds like there will be. I would love to meet Inge and other fabbers and see Angie again! I had the joy of shopping with her around eight years ago and it was the best and most fun shopping experience of my life! My DH arranged it with Angie behind my back as an anniversary gift! Some of the pieces she chose for me are still going strong to this day. Thanks Angie! And congratulations on 20 years YLF. Crossing my fingers that I will be able to celebrate with you.

Lynette, such kind words! We had an awesome few shopping days, and DD was awfully supportive too! Sorry to hear about your injury. Sodding luck Feel better soon.

FEEL FREE to arrange a time while we're both here - and we'll make sure not to do too much walking! We'll hang out and have lunch. It would be fabulous to hug and catch up!!

kkards - I’m holding thumbs it will work out.
kellygirl - Hopefully DH’s treatments will go smoothly!
Jaime - We will miss you!
aloha emily - The NYC meeting will be brilliant too:-)
Natalie - What fun memories indeed, I loved reading your post again. Excited to see you again.

YLF gatherings are happening again and I am so happy to see it. This felt like a family reunion reading everyone’s posts and seeing familiar names! Being able to enjoy Inge’s company will be truly wonderful and is the perfect way to celebrate your blog’s longevity. I remember meeting Debbie and Sharan and seeing Mary again. Natalie’s link with those photos was extraordinary. So many good memories and it was fun to see the sweet images of Sveta and Aida and many other YLF friends. It would be fun to see if some resurfaced and meet new people, as well. Right now either date looks good and I’ll see what fits best in the coming weeks. YLF at 20 looks amazing!

Oh, how I would like to participate! But I think it will not be possible. Anyway never say never ...

Well how fun is that! I will keep it in mind but probably not in the cards for me - my daughter is having a baby and we have a few trips planned out to SLC to see her and help after the baby is born. Sure sounds like fun though!

I always adore YLF gatherings and this one sounds awesome! It's more likely I can swing an east coat gathering vs a west coat one. But if I get any opportunity to join this one I'll let you know! Please post lots and lots of pictures and I wish everyone a wonderful time!

Vicki, that's awesome! Wooohoooo! Sooooo looking forward to catching up in person again

Sisi, NYC is closer to Europe so maybe we'll see you there!

RobinF, congrats! Busy Granny, and enjoy!

Lisa, YES! NYC is closer to you, and really hope to see you there this year! Need to catch up and hug in person again

Wow, it sounds amazing! I look forward to seeing pics and reading all about it. Yay for 20 years of YLF!

So excited and hope I can make it to the NYC meetup. I guess it all depends on the date. Crossing fingers.

Angie, you and the Fabbers are precious souls! I don't know if I can make it with the house rebuild and mom life-- but I am so, so soooooo excited for you all! I will let you know asap if things change and I can attend. One of these days I really want to meet you all in person <3

There’s a chance I could make it to one of the Seattle meetups. I’ve never been to any so far, and it would be amazing. I live on the east coast now but I lived in Seattle for 34 years and I like to visit when possible. What a great excuse to head back!!

Naz, it will be fantastic to see you again! Hope it works out.

Jonesy and Ket, thanks for all your support from afar! Hope you can attend

ChristelJ, you are a Seattleite!!! How did I not know that??? YES! Come back to the West Coast where we will welcome you with open arms!!!

Hi! This is very exciting news!

I would be interested in joining one of the weekend get-togethers, if it's not too late. Probably April 11 as I may be out of town the 18th.

SarahD8, yay! You're dead right on time, and it will great to finally meet you

I'm coming to the 11th - got my short vacation approved .

WOOOHOOOO!!! Awesome, Slim Cat!! Can't wait to meet you!!!

I am hoping to be free to join the NYC event! I fondly remember the Boston meet up

Vicki - I’m so excited to see you again!
Sisi and Ket- Holding thumbs it might work out.
RobinF - How exciting! Congratulations!
ChristelJ, SarahD8 - That would be amazing!
slim cat - Hurrah!-)
Lisa, Naz, JamC - Wonderful that you can come to NY!

JamC, it will be fabulous to see you again!

Inge, two months to go!!!

Just saw this post. Sounds like great fun! At this point, I can likely join on either date......Seattle is just a ferry ride away. It would be lovely to meet some of the fabulous YLFs!

Yippee!!!! I've been wishing for another YLF together since the last one in Seattle in November 2019. I'm now retired so my schedule is wide open. Can't wait to see everyone!!
