I get to come on Friday. I wish I was getting to meet everyone on Saturday night, but the schedule just won't allow for it this time.

I will be keeping my eyes peeled for all meet and greets planned.....

Hello,

That is great you can come on Friday

I will be there both days, so lets plan on meeting each other

I just sent you a private message.

If anyone else is going on Friday to the shop hop let me know so we can also meet. Maybe we could all eat lunch together on Friday!
