HiCarol,
Gosh I made it back very tierd tho. Nashville is something it takes more than 3 days to see. The gift bags are great with me. I got an email from Pat and she says that the final count from our Ombudsman is 197. Not sure of how many are female and male. Can you please give me the site to order the bags and tell me how many you think I should order, I will do that this week. Also Pat had herd that Gwen was no longer helping us I have not talked with her have you? That is great that our Sailors work together and know each other. That way if needed we can contact each of them. I am really concerned about my son he has lost over 23 lbs. He was not real big to start with. Anyway I guess I need to get busy on the bags now that I am back. I am going to go look tomorrow for Candy Canes. We may have to wait until after Halloween for them to hit the shelfs Barbara is waiting until after Halloween to get hers. I guess it will be just me you and Barbara. I hope you are having a good week I will talk with you later in the week.

Carol, I think someone else is helping too but I have to check who it is. Did you see that woman's posting that she was sending me 42 cases of Air Heads??? lol I can't accept it because first I have no where to store it and 2ndly do you know what it would cost to ship that!! I thought she was talking about a couple cases not a pallet full. My husband said are you nuts. I'm seriously starting to think I am....lol

Carol they tell me that the count for VF41 is 227 sorry I was way off. Wow we have our work cut out for us. I have gotten my work of about 120 people together and they are going to bring candy, stockings and I can add on any other things you might think. I did not know the squadron was that large we are really going to have to work together. My local schools are makeing cards beginning this week. But I am not sure if I can get 227 maybe between us all we can do it. I am going to PM my phone number so we can communicate that way as well.

Carol we have 46 to 50. I counted them in the squdron picture. I was waiting on a confirmation from the ombudsman. But we can plan for at least 50. There has been so much argument on the comment pages. And I can only get on the computer twice a day and do not have time to read all the argument chatter. From what I am getting it is ok to do the Christmans projec(thanks to Pat) but no one has said anything about what kind of goods to ask for. I have sent out emails and letters to my local schools to request hand written cards and they should be coming in here very soon. I have also been asking people to supply me stockings but I am unsure of what size to ask for. If you have time could you please check with the others and try and see if they ever settled on what specific items to ask for. Also I was unclear of if we were going to do individual (our) groups or the Nimitz as a whole. But I have began to do some work. Let me know what you think and have we heard from any of the other VF 41 moms?
