[quote=cannyquilter]Having successfully sent a picture of my SP package I am getting very adventurous and will try to post a picture or two of me taken on the Meditterean cruise I went on in August had a wonderfultime went with my brother and sister and our partners. Sadly my brother who was terminally ill died 9 days after we returned home.
I am so glad your family had this special time together with your brother. I know how much it means to you. We went on a cruise with our daughter and 3 grandchildren. Four years later we lost our 22 year old grandson. That trip holds such special memories for me and I know your trip does too. Memories are what we have left and hold dear.

Thank you for sharing your memories, we had so much fun planning for the cruise and I cherish the time I had with my brother, he told me it was the best holiday he had ever had and i feel privilleged to have spent that with him. I am one of 11 children and one of my sisters died last year so as a family we have had a difficult year but since July we have had 3 engagements and have 3 weddings to look forward to next year. One is my son and the other two are my younger brother and sister, both aged around 50 and never married so we are looking forward to having some happy family occassions in 2012.

It was supposed to be a 500 lb pumpkin -- I think it ended up around 200 lbs.
And what do you have there? A rock? An egg from a dinosaur?
Whatever it is, I like it!
Yes I do believe it is a dino egg. or maybe a pumpkin or squash.

Just because I do this and enjoy recieving hamemade items doesn't mean anyone else has to make items. Especially if you work or have children.Sometimes you don't have time to do this.So don't think everyone is down on you for sending a small swap. They are just as well enjoyed as any other swap.They come from the heart not the purse.Mary
