[NYCStrongFox]

Hey guys! :waving: :waving: :waving: :waving:
We made it back home safely. Wow, what a long day and I wasn't even competing. You're very welcomed for the pics. Anything to help make everyone a part of it all.
OMG! I felt bad for the delay for these athletes for most if not all, were not prepared for the delay for the NPC portion of the show. These guys did a great job staying calm and relaxed to make it through and thank goodness it was prej and finals back to back...done...over....time to eat. LOL

Congrats to you all for doing great under the circumstances.

[NYCStrongFox]

Here are some shots of the girls doing their thing on stage....:D

Vanessa, thanks for doing all the driving girl. I'll give you a buzz when I hit Rockland.

It was also great meeting MaryAnn (Badgergrl). Thanks for sitting and talking with me. You're cool girl. Hope you made it to the dinner. Sorry I didn't get to say bye! Hope to see you again at another show.

Anne Sheehan, thanks for saying hi and for the advise on my recovery. I'm gonna make that call tomorrow for that machine lol.

Lisa and Roe, you guys are SO cool. Roe had me rolling! ;) It was great talking to you guys. I felt like we were friends for years lol. Lisa girl you look really good too, so you'll be fine at the O and going forward. Give the little ones a hug for me :hug:

We just kept bumping into many people outside the theater and it was just great to stop and say hello. Good times. The texting was a busy time lol. Hope you guys enjoyed what I was able to send for the board. :waving: Thanks Sioux!!!

It was great meeting new people from here.. Had lots of fun, and wished I had more time to mingle with everyone...
Nice meeting Amanda and Leilani Happy B-lated Birthday..
Danielle cracked me up when she text me inviting us to 40/40 and I told her Mel couldn't dance. She said... Mel can do the crutches dance lMfao..
The whole entire weekend was pretty intense, and we never had a chance to take a group pic :(
But at least we got to mingle and talk with almost everyone.
