Yes  it was a very nice guild meeting with lots of good friends. Thanks to HE 
Brian and Angela for opening their house for the meeting. Who made the yummy 
beans? They were munching! Man they were very good and a nice addition to the 
brats. Amelia's cupcakes with sprinkles were a nice touch too. xo G
