kristi and i 'met' when i submitted a layout to the one little word challenge blog, then made a complete dork of myself by commenting that they didn't include my layout in their slide show. if i'd bothered to read properly, i would have seen that the slide was just of their favourites!
kristi, ever the sweetie, left ME a comment saying she'd done exactly the same thing. who knows if that's true or not - it was a sweet thing to say, and we were fast and firm virtual friends from that day on (mid-2007 i'm thinking).
i finally relented to her nagging in feb 08 and started a blog, and in october 08 i was lucky enough to meet her in person. she even put me up for 2 nights before our KC weekend. not many people would welcome a total stranger from the other side of the world into their home, but she did!
kristi has a wicked sense of humour, as can be seen in this birthday post to her friend kendra.
all i can say now, kristi, as it's YOUR birthday (and you had to know this was coming).....
PAYBACK'S A BITCH!!!!!
(just as well you're extremely photogenic, is all i can say!)
kristi is fun and not at all afraid to look a little dorky from time to time

did i say a little???
like me, she loves to play dress-up
and she's not at all creepyHEY! where's MY pic???
after emailing and blogging for over a year and half, we finally met!
i soon learned that kristi is a 'hands-on' friend
she's in complete control of her superfast car, and has excellent parking skills
and her table manners are second-to-none
she CAN be shy...
well, SOMEtimes...
she also welcomed me into her home like an old friend and i have such great memories of my time with her and ALL my KC gals.
i look forward to seeing you again soonhappy birthday my friend!
this is the album i made kristi for her birthday, which she's received and loves! (glad ya like it!)

That looks like so much fun! Can I come over and stay at your place? Do I have to grab your boobs, though? A simple hug would suffice for me.

Friends like that are a great find.
Thanks for stoppin by the other day. Hope you had a great weekend!
