Welcome

Grandma's Grandkids:  To those of you who may be looking at this blog, Lists 1-7 now reflect the items that were not chosen in the first draw. List 8 is now available.  Same drill as before - please let me have your lists, in order of preference, by Fri., Oct. 11 at 6:00 pm SL time, since the last U-haul heading to CA where a lot of you are or have access to will be leaving Oct. 12.  I will do a new drawing of names and numbers for the order of choosing.  When a picture has more than one item in it, please describe the item you want. Make sure to read the description underneath, because all items in a picture may not be available. PLEASE list your choices as the list number first and the item number second, like 8-24.  Thanks!  That will save me a lot of time.

I have also emailed your parents the book and cook book list.  If you do not have it, contact me and I will get it to you.  I will do a new drawing of order for the books, also.  I also need your list of books and preference order by the same date and time as above.  That will give me Fri. night to figure out the lists and Sat. to pack things up.

Love you all!
Aunt Vicki (or Mom)

P.S.  My apologies for any errors that might occur with the books.  It has been a tremendous undertaking by Allan to get all of these listed.  Then we had a computer glitch and basically had to begin again.  I did notice a couple of errors last night - like the New Testament being written by Ted Malone - so I hope there aren't any other glaring problems.



LIST 8







1. New stainless steel silverware set for 8 or 10 with accessories (I think it's 10)

2. Below - baby dresses and flannel kimonoes made by Grandma Call.  All dresses are in poor shape, but it is still amazing to see all the work and talent that went into creating them. No one may have more than one of these items.
