Do you know if they put a donor plaque up?  If so I'll try to get a pic of it when we go to the memorial gathering at St. Judes.

Forget all that stuff.  $70,252 is a number I can get behind!

"no child left behind" takes on a whole different meaning here at Tradgang.

thank god for such generous people and hard workers.
The words "Child" and "terminal illness" should never share the same sentence! Those who care-do, others question!

Thanks most to the Moderators Doug, Terry, etc. for running the show and the generous folks who donated such beautiful gifts! I feel a little guilty having grabbed some really nice arrows and a collector's knife! There, I'm over it-now where's my cookie?!!  :biglaugh:

Great job guys that is just AWESOME!!  Thanks to Doug, Terry and everybody that helped out behind the scenes and making this all possible.  Now I have to go to the bank and then explain to the wife where all of our money went....  :help:    :help:    :help:    :help:

It is such a privalege to be a part of a group like this.  Not only is this outstanding, but simply awesome.  Knowing that all of this comes from the heart, my hat is off, and hand held high in salute to each and everyone that had a part in this.  No matter what you won or bid, it was the heart that did it.  Thanks so much for such a wonderful blessing for the kids

Ok guys, I have to go BACK to Kroger and buy the correct butter. I bought 4 pounds of LIGHT butter sticks instead of regular. (This is what happens when you try to shop with 2 boys) I could not figure out what was wrong with my cookies this weekend....then I looked in the fridge and the "light" on the label finally hit me. Doesn't make for good cookies even though it would be better for the waist line.....    :biglaugh:    
Going shopping tomorrow so send me a PM if you have any thing special you want added and tell me nuts or no nuts....
Oh, and Kevin, I can send you fresh when you return....can't enjoy a stale cookie. Besides, the post office may decided to open it and see where the cookie aroma is coming from....   :eek:    

Thanks again for all the bids. It was great for the kids and I think many enjoyed all the razzing that went on. I know I did.

Thank you to everyone who participated in any way. What a great experience for us all for such a great cause. The kids will be blessed for sure.

Thanks,
Kim

Well AWRIGHTY then!  
Put me on the no nuts and definitely no RAISINS list...
And a heartfelt thank you, and you get the blame for starting all of this cookie business, LOL!  I bet you didn't know what you were getting into.

Been a TradGang member for only a week and this feels like HOME! Stumbled across you folks while searching for a back-up bow last week. I am most impressed with the moderators...Terry, Doug, etc., as well as the other members. I particiapted in the St. Jude's auction and am already looking forward to donating some items in 2008. There are two words to describe the people on this site...FIRST CLASS!

Thanks to everyone who put this together and worked on it! This was my first St. Judes auction and I only donated one thing...but I know for sure next year i'll donate more and save up more money for the bidding!

Thanks to everyone that bid on my item.
