Lots of great stuff this year. The members of the morning thread are absolutely the best. I wish I would've been in a position to participate this year. I am definitely in for next year, though.

Been popping in now and then, just not posting. All is well here, hope all is well with you and yours!

Well Jaymes dad is officially on his way back to Alliance for the first time since the Monday after Thanksgiving. Definitely one of the best Christmas gifts ever. He will be going into a nursing home as of now, but at least he's going to be in town.

Great news Zack! Especially around this time. We were in Alliance for about 2 weeks, we were extremely busy and knowing what you and Jayme were going through I didn't think it was best to reach out and meet up.

No worries at all Alex! We were both fairly busy trying to be with her dad as much as possible, and then finals week was last week at school so it's been a bit hectic around here. Still need to get a couple of more Christmas gifts. Mainly Jayme's mom, but she's tough to shop for :lol:

Thanks guys! Its been a long road, but we're finally getting some traction. He's been in the hospital since the November 25th, with a visit on the 24th as well. Hard to believe that its been a month already. The first day or two after they transferred him to a bigger hospital was pretty scary. We all thought that we were about to lose him, but he's shown that he's a fighter. Its gonna take more than double pneumonia, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis to keep him down. After I found out he was gonna be transferred to a nursing home here I decided to get a new Huskers (bleh) blanket for him to use. Its nice having a grandma that is willing to sew a blanket last minute. She just did it this morning and all it cost me was the fabric

Grandma's are the best, aren't they? My mom's mom was a big time quilter, and her quilts were the best. Mine is put away somewhere, but they were amazing. I'm sure that blanket will be well-received!

They definitely are the best! Jayme convinced me to give it to him today to get some Husker red in his room since they have to decorate. He's using it already so I think he likes it

More to come?

very nice cards

Afternoon-Evening All!

Sorry for the MTSS delay. We had a 9am appointment that went wrong with our 48hr kid. Without going in to details, we had to get a judge to extend her stay with us for 144 more hours. Since we arnt her legal guardians, we had to establish legal guardianship then apply for the 144 hour extension. Then we had to wait for the judge to approve everything. Wife is off to the mall to make sure she has gifts on Christmas morning to open.

MTSS Reveal Time:




2009 Upper Deck Sweet Spots Jay Bruce 1 of 1!
HOLY CRAP is what I said when I opened the box. Saw it on eBay and then it was gone. Gave it the ole' snooze you loose thought, then BAM!
Right in my hands!

I'd like to thank Pete, [MENTION=1784]lonesomeagle1[/MENTION] for the very generous MTSS gift!

I'd Like to thank [MENTION=2418]George_Calfas[/MENTION] as well for heading up and making MTSS work!

Thank You to all at FCB for making this the best sports card forum on the net.

Merry Christmas to all!
