    Have a great time and spoil the heck out of all of them. I know they'll appreciate grandma's cooking. Give them extra hugs from all of us and thank them for what they're all doing for us. God bless them.

    Tell them THANK YOU for their service and sacrifice for our freedoms!
    Then spoil the grandkids, your son and his wife all you can. I'm sure all will enjoy!

    What area of SA are you going to? We just had a shop hop last weekend. This link is a partial list of quilt shops in the area (list is from the shop hop). They are all nice: http://www.creations-online.com/spec....htm#hopstores

    If you need any other ideas, let me know. Have fun while you are here!
