    Congratulations Karen great to have new grand baby.
    I will be happy to help cook if there is a need. I cannot sit to long without getting up to move around.
    Karen, did you say we have to bring all our own bed linens and towels,etc? I will bring kitchen towels and cloths along with dish soap. This is just like going camping, which we do 2 or 3 times a year.
    I cannot eat bananas, or Tuna. They are easy to avoid.

    Payments now received from Bluelady and Candlequilter. That makes 17! I'm waiting to hear from one more person who PM'd me but I'm honestly not sure which name to call her by! I've paid for her!

    Update on food that was volunteered:
    Condiments and a pound cake and coffee (Cbridges), a turkey,gravy etc (Feathers) a chicken lasagna and Costco muffins (quilttiludrop), red wine (Winewoman), birthday cake for 2Doods & Feathers and snacking vegetables and fruit (Karen), veggie/dip tray and salad (2Doods), fruit, ice cream, Hershey's syrup and a variety of teas (SewCornie), dessert (mistiliz), Ham, Roastbeef and Turkey for lunch along with some lettuce, tomatoes,bread, etc (TrishB), baked beans Patty Jo, and potato salad, a sack of potatoes and a couple dozen eggs in case anyone wants that for breakfasts(Candlequilter). If I've missed something (or added :)) something please let me know!

    Feathers has a bingo game and a word game. Bring 3 fat quarters (purchased or cut it yourself).

    Quiltingnonie is going to show us PP and will post a supply list.

    The rental has a fitted sheet on the bed but only as a mattress cover. You will need bedding and towels. I believe they provide kitchen towels, soap, etc. I will confirm this before we go!

    I'm still a little foggy in the brain! Been taking care of 4 boys 7 and under for the past two days as well as attending the birth in the middle of the night. My DIL was able to deliver without a C-section and did an awesome job! My new GD didn't want to breathe right away and had to have some resuscitation done but seems to be doing fine now. They both came home today! Yes, I'll have pictures of all the kids, since I had a new GS in Feb. Thanks for the prayers, they were much appreciated!

    Personally, I'm just going to bring a large flat sheet and a blanket/pillow. You could bring a sleeping bag or something similar. There are all different sizes of beds so I really don't have a different suggestion for you. Check out the website for the list. It will be first come first pick but there are enough spaces that I think if we work together, we'll all have a good time! I've already volunteered to share a king with someone.
