is there a gagging smilie?

Couldn't find one

Maybe this

 

[AnneR]

White or Red???

You got me.

First time I met DH's family, I was invited for game night. LOL here I was thinking cards, board games, etc. Imagine my surprise to be served squirrel, rabbit, and deer. Sorry to all you hunters - but I did not eat that night.

Not too crazy about squirrel or rabbit, but LOVE venison!

Trying to work on this for my father in law

The picture worked for me. Looks good!!

We need to do this for my grandfather and great uncle. My Mom and I talked about it when we visited the memorial in DC but we haven't done it yet. You've inspired me to take action!!!

He won't actually be going on the memorial in DC (maybe someday), this is just an online registry. Let me know if you need any help!!

Alright, you guys are going to have to it page 300 without me. I am still tired from yesterday and going to go watch tv and relax. May be back later though!!

Just checking...

Please do not say anything important here as you drive up the posts trying to close the thread.

I do not want to wade through reading them all!

Just had to share. We recently registered my Grandfather in a WWII Veteran's Registry. He was in the Navy and fought during WWII. I think it turned out great!

I can't get the picture to come up, but here's the link to the page:

Well, I have to go pick my buddy up as he will be joining us at the cottage this weekend.
Back in a few!
Hope they don't close us up before I return.

Moose.

But we need a really big table.











No, really, turkey and/or ham like you do.

you could not pay me to eat moose.

Not too crazy about squirrel or rabbit, but LOVE venison!

I have to confess that I have never eaten any of these meats. I can't get past the gag reflex of the thought.

 

[AnneR]

It appears our dream will be unmet unless some others join us to chat tonight. We are a dwindling group.

 

[AnneR]

By the way - I am going with Red. A nice shiraz.

love rabbit and venison, no thanks to the squirrel.

So I just finished telling the boys that they could not shower until we got to the cottage as I had to re-caulk some areas that the little one had pulled off.
5 minutes later, I hear the shower running!
Johnny forgot already........
So much for caulking the shower before leaving so it would have been set for next week....

get him in there to wipe it down and get the fan running.

Since we were talking about WWII Vets early, I thought I would post some pictures of the WWII Memorial in DC from when my Mom and I stopped and visited a couple of years ago. It is a beautiful tribute and very moving.

 

[Tonya2426]

BTW, I am not saying the pictures are photographic art - just pictures we snapped.

This is from the Korean War Memorial. It was really moving to be there and well worth a visit.

 

[Tonya2426]

There is a marble wall with etchings of soilders faces at the Korean War Memorial. It is so highly polished you can see reflections in it.

 

[Tonya2426]

You can see the blue sky and puffy clouds being reflected in this one.

 

[AnneR]

Great pictures Tonya.

I live a little over an hour away and I have not made it to all those memorials.
