Paulette, I believe at this time there will be 3 adults (Me, Floyd and daughter Leslie) and 2 children (7 & 9) coming. We are going to be shopping during the day and then visit with the N4Ms group. My grandkids are very well mannered and will not cause any problems for anyone...I promise. Can't wait to see everyone. Ruth VH

Well only a week away. Can not believe it is heere. We will miss everyone that can not make it and we will be sure to post lots of pictures and tell you all all about it. And most definateluy set the next one. I hope all of the moms in the lower part of the state did not float away with all the rain last night. lLet's hope it has it all out of its system so next weekend is dry and sunny.
I will be giving a count to the Inn on Monday so if there are anymore out there coming let me know. It will be a fun group....Paulette

Hi MI moms! I am in Highland. Is there anyone who would like to car pool? It is about 45 minutes from here to Frankenmuth, so I will not stay overnight. Please let me know by private email. Thank You! =]

Sheila, weddings have a habit of "going over budget" so don't fret. You can make the next one...hopefully we have one anyway...and your trip to Italy really needs to come first, as our sailors should come first and when you can squeeze us in, it would be great. I had doubts whether I would be coming as I have been sick, but I'm feeling better and plan on attending with my husband Floyd. I hope everyone understands that the ones that can make it will be missing the ones that can't. Ruth VH, Mom of Chris

I am sooo disappointed that I am not going to be able to make it...I could just cry. I have been looking so forward to meeting all of you but financially I just can't do it right now. I am saving money for my trip to Italy in August and my daughter is getting married on July 4th and she has somehow run out of $$ so therefore her dad and I get the load of that.....anyway I hope you all have a really great time and I will do my very best to meet up with you at the next one. Take care all!!

Hi Paulette! My husband and younger daughter will attend to get the chance to meet other Navy Families. We will be at our camper that weekend and its only 30 minutes from Frankenmuth. Is there anything I need to bring? How much is the cost and when do we pay? Thanks, Julie
