Janice,
I saw you comment about finally being able to eat at the dining room table and I laughed because we have been eating at the card table that I use for when we have holidays at our house. I will just leave it out since Thanksgiving is at my house this year. I wish I could see the PAO's face when all these boxes start arriving. I wonder where they are going to store all of it. I had 10 boxes just by myself and if everyone else had that many that is going to be one huge pile of boxes.

My goody bags will go out today before 5, if not tomorrow at the latest. I had some health issues over the weekend (still today actually) but am trying to get them finished up right now.

Congratulations, Pat, and a big THANK YOU to all for allthe help and support to ensure our sailors receive their goody bags. I am very proud to be a Navy mom!

Mine are having to go on the 19th and it shouldn't be too bad. Still within range. Louise -- it should work. It just makes it better! :)

Louise, I don't know if that's too late or not. You can always go ahead and send them, and at worst, they might have to enjoy them for New Year's instead! The Post Office said to ship no later than the 14th, but the boxes lately have been getting there in just a couple weeks. My son got the box I sent him for Thanksgiving the week after Halloween! I'm sure they'll enjoy it whenever it gets there!

I am a Pinckey mom and plan on getting in on the christmas cheer project. Not to late I hope. I am going try and get boxes shipped by Monday the 23rd. Hopefully that would be to late. Gives me 4 weeks...Do you think they will get there?

I received a nice thank you note from the CMC of the Warhawks squadron.

I had 2 friends come over today to help me fill my goody-bags. It's done! Tomorrow I ship them off!
My daughter was taking pictures of us all afternoon while we "stuffed" bags!
I'll try and post 1 of 2 pics.
Thanks everybody and thank you, Pat, for everything you've done!
Between all us maybe our sons/daughters/husbands will send us some pictures and we can post them here to share with all of us.

I think it would take someone who would want to try and send it in to a variety of reporters at different channels (Fox might be a good one) who report on special interest stories. Trace Gallagher, Shepherd Smith, maybe even Bill O'Reilly or Sean Hannity? Glenn Beck??? Let me think on it awhile. I'm sure there are other reporters on differewnt stations too who might cover something like this.
