You are welcome - but really, no problem!  I like reading other people's thoughts more tho!!  I get sick of seeing "comment by Proud Navy/NYPD Mom", looks like I'm here alone or talking so much no one else can...

I'm going to try to re-post a comment that Molly made on Molly's Adopt A Sailor.  You all remember how MAS won $50K from Pepsi Refresh last year.  Well, look what's happened since then...  Aren't you proud to be a part of this?  I know I am.  This is soooo exciting!!!  Molly's Mommas are going national in a huge way!!!!!

From Molly:

MERCY MERCY ME ---- well all I can say (since we are quoting movie stars I will do Sally Field )

THEY LIKE US ,THEY REALLY LIKE US !!!

1) Pepsi will be doing a campaign for and making a big play for supporting the troops here in the next few months. and guess who they have asked to be their *spokespeople* Well to quote the PR gal ---kinda like a spokesmen for what pepsi refresh can do . YEP you guess it US US US !!

Its a 3 fold advertising thing ---- one is a editorial like thing using MAS name as someone that Pepsi helped (the places she said were *like the new york times*)    tee hee hee the other 2 come after that BUT she said TV news  and something else !!  (( yeah in case you were wondering I indeed had all 3 of them in tears))  its how we roll ~~  tee hee hee

ALSO they asked if we would come back in for pepsi again !!   Holy Canolies 

Im not too sure if its June or July that we would be voting BUT I do know that there is no rolling over this time Its one month win or loose. So we would have to be on our game right off the bat !!  But whoosh we could do this ---

 

Our grant manager told me last month that the first 6 months pepsi watches their grant winners and based on what they have seen ,the next 6 months they can step in and help. WELL --- they are indeed helping again I quote Sally "THEY LIKE US , THEY REALLY LIKE US"     geez whats not to like ~  tee hee hee . Im seriously beginning to think Moms are a force like no other !! 

HAPPY THURSDAY MY LOVELIES !!   and GOD BLESS our TROOPS --- God Bless their hearts !! 

 

NOW, doesn't that make you want to join "Molly's Adopt A Sailor Project"??  Sign-up under groups and become a part of something bigger than any of us could have imagined!!!

I don't know anything about it.  I've never been to The Big E, a Navy Week, Fleet Week (in NY), a homecoming ... nada (sp?)  I will try to call  the Lt. Cmd. today and try to get news for Sunday.  Then we can really talk!!

Thanks LuAnn and Kathy!!  I followed your links until I found some info.  It does list the USS Constitution for 6/30 @ 12AM (that must be a typo!!).

Navy Week is offiially at The Big E in Springfield 9/29 - 10/2.  I got a contact name, number & email.

What do you think, should we try to make an impression especially for MA Navy Moms, but possibly include RI, CT, VT, NH and ME (too, if they would travel that far)?

I've got a few ideas from other Moms we might use.  I guess the first thing would be to contact the Lt. Cmdr. in charge.  So, do we go for it?????

JUST WONDERING... does anyone know when Navy Week is in Boston?  Seems to me we talked about this last year but it was too late to do anything.  Thought maybe we could find out and have a MA Navy presence down by the ships???

Any thoughts, suggestions?  Thought it might be fun & of course include our hubbies or significant others, friends & family alike.  Make it a MA Navy Moms FAMILY EVENT.  Does anyone know how to go about this?

WELCOME HOME USS KEARSARGE!!!!!!!!!

So happy for you, Priscilla, and your family.  Travel safely home.  And hug your son one more time from all of us!

LAST CALL for the packing party on Sunday (5/22)!!  Please leave me a comment or send me a PM so I'll have an idea of how many to plan for.  Thanks MA Moms!  Can't wait to see some of you again!!

FYI, if you are new to MA Moms' packing parties - everyone brings some sort of a snack to munch on.  I will provide coffee, tea, & something cold to drink too.  I'm so excited about having a packing party!!!  Just let me know if you are coming so I can be sure that I have enough???????

Comment by Proud Navy/NYPD Mom (Donna) on May 6, 2011 at 9:58am

So, everyone remembers the theme and the ship, right?  The USS Higgins.  Summer/water fun for additional items.  Ex: beach towels, beach balls, frizbees, water balloons, squirt guns, sunscreen (?).  Let your imaginations run wild.

Also, please do your best to write some notes to include.  If you can get your hands on some postcards from around the state that would be fun & goes along with summer.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Had to make a change:  The Packing Party will be on Sun., 5/22, but I needed to change the time to 2PM.  Hope that won't cause a problem for anyone.

Also, I joined the RI Mom group and invited them since I live so close to at least parts of RI.  Have already heard from two of them.  Hopefully both will be able to join us.

Jennifer, how is the day and time for you??  Tell your hubby he is welcome to come so you won't need to drive alone.  Unfortunately mine works Sunday-Thurs. so he won't be here.  But, one of the RI moms may need her hubby to drive her.  Just wanted to extend the invite to him.
