Hello Everyone!
I am finally back home in California! This past 3 weeks have been busy busy and very emotionally draining. It started with my son-in-law's deployment ceremony in El Paso, then I moved onto working for PICTUREKEEPER at the CKC in San Marcos, Texas (great fun with my BFFs!). I finished cleaning out two family storage units in Dallas (whew! THAT was work!), then went back to El Paso to help my daughter pack up her whole house... say goodbye to her Army husband as his brigade left in the middle of the night and bring her back to California with me. I have pictures and momentos of this past three weeks that I plan to scrapbook, because it is these experiences that I feel are so important to document for my future generations. I'm not sure if I will be able to capture the pure raw emotion of saying goodbye to all of those soldiers, but I want my grandchildren and great-grandchildren to know how awesome my daughter and son-in-law are and the sacrifices that they are making for everyone.
So... it has taken me a couple of days to recover from this whirlwind trip, but I woke this morning feeling normal again and wanted to start out with my BIG giveaway!!!! So, without further ado, here are the WINNERS....

Congrats ladies!
Thank you to your family and all those like it who sacrifice so much for us in service to their country.
congrats to all the winners.. so sad I won't be able to make it to your class to night...
AHH!! OMG!! I just sent you an email! Thank you so much!! I am going to put this machine to great use!! Thank you so so much!!
Congrats to all the winners! And a big THANK YOU for your generosity, Tammy.
Congrats to all the winners!
How exciting.
Oh I feel for anyone that is sending a love one to deploy.
I think it was the hardest thing I had to do with my middle son.
Sending prayers for a quick and safe return.
Oh, and I also wanted to add that, that was a sweet thing you did for your daughter. Being a military wife, and being so far from home, it is nice to have mom there to help out! In the job my husband has, we do not have deployment ceremonies, so I can't even imagine how moving they are! I am packing up my house too and moving back to be by my parents when my husband deploys (this time around) in the next few months! I am sure generations from now will treasure the memories you are capturing.
And thanks again! I am still in shock that my name is up there. So, thank you, thank you, thank you!
My thoughts, prayers and thanks are with your daughter, her husband and all the other families who are serving their country.
You certainly had a very intense few weeks! I can't wait to see what you create as you "get back to normal"!!!
Congrats to the winners! They are some lucky gals!!!
Wow! So excited to win! Thanks so much!
I grew up in the Air Force - makes me really understand and appreciate the sacrifices the soldiers and their families are making for us.
Congrats winners!!!
Miss you Tammy!
Hi Tammy, My thoughts and prayers are with your daughter and son-in-law. It sounds like you have been very busy these past few weeks. Moving is exhausting - I don't envy you in that regard!
