We have gotten some more Big Give packages- -- just no time to post them. I am going to attempt to get them on here tonight .

First let me just say that everyones kindness is so overwhelming. I am still shocked and stunned everyday at the kindness the Big Givers have shown our family. They will always be remembered by us!!!

Our MAW local volunteer called me Thursday night to ask what we wanted to do for Clint’s going away party??? WHAT ??? We leave in less than two weeks !!! So we asked Clint and he wanted Chuck E Cheese. I told her it would be very hard for me to arrange this so quickly but I think everyone could be there this Saturday (tonight). She told me that didn’t give her enough time to plan. OK so that leaves next weekend. (we leave on Sunday). She said what about next Friday at four?? That won’t work because the people we would want there would still be at work . OK what about next Sat?? I told her it would have to be for Sat afternoon because Megan is in a rodeo she has been waiting on for two months and we leave that Sunday. So she said she will check into it and call me the next morning. I still have not heard anything from her and don’t know what to tell family that will need to make arrangements to be there. OH WELL >>>> I should not be whining I just thought that we weren’t having one because I have only heard from her twice (once two yrs ago when we signed papers and six months ago when we had to resign papers). Talk about putting me into panic mode. I am not going to panic I have told myself and no matter what and who is there---- it will still be fabulous !!!

I called about our rental car for the two extra days and “think” I have it figured out. Regardless, I am not going to worry about that either. I think I already posted on here what a great deal I got with Priceline for the room. I am excited about that. I also joined a photopass share and paid my part on that. That is just the greatest idea to me . I think it will be wonderful to have all of us in all of those “special” pics and no one be missing because they are taking the pic!!!

Now for Big Give Pics ::::

The package was from Jill (don't know her screen name and didn't want to put her last name-- just in case) and the kids were very excited. Thank you very much Jill !!! ::

Of course Barbie had to make an appearance also. She is even SMILING:::

Here is Clint getting it open:: (please ignore the play clothes)

Already so excited and they still don’t even know what it is::

It’s a really cool WISH shirt for our trip::

And there’s one for ALL of us::

There’s something else…. Super cool personalized autograph books!!::

Posing with the autograph books::

There’s no pictures of me in these but later when Mammy got home we had to go next door and show her (hence Clint is in his PJ’s now). She was very excited too!!!::

Her posing with her shirt::

She wouldn’t even let me bring hers back home to pack with all of our stuff! She had to pack it with hers. I think she really liked it. She says she is going to do the Big Give with me when we get back from our trip and I am allowed to join!!

Thanks Jill and all the Big Givers!!! We love you guys!!

I do hope we get to hear all about it, as soon as you get your feet underneath you from the trip!
