I guess you DID get tons of stockings! They are all so beautiful.
We are all thankful to you GP for all the hard work you and that handsome hubby are doing for our troops! Oh yes and Daisey too. I see she is resting after helping you with these pictures. LOL

They all look so pretty! Everyone has done a wonderful job on the stockings. It's made my heart feel good being a part of this.

Thank you GP and your DH for all your hard work on this project. A big blessing on both your hearts and Daisy's heart as well...I know she worked hard on this project too.

Hi Pam, it seems to me that Daisy must have worked the hardest on this project! She looks all in! lol

Bless you and Bill for heading up this project! This is what I truly want our Forum to be all about, loving on and helping each other and touching lots of other hearts! I am so grateful that you are doing this project and consider myself a lucky duck that I could be a part of it!

WOW - those are great. Tell your DH thanks so much for being so involved in this project. And Daisy, give her a great big hug. She looks plum tuckered out. You guys are just fantastic.

Oh, ya'll are so sweet, thanks! Aren't these stockings WONDERFUL??!! I tell you, it wears me out to do these photo shoots of stockings because I get so excited and I cry and it truly is so touching to see them in person! I think of what they represent...the warm and caring hearts of my wonderful friends, and I think of the brave soldiers so far from home and their families who are making such a great sacrifice for us all. I think of Christmas morning and try to picture the person who will receive a stocking and know that he/she is remembered with gratitude. And what I think of more than anything is the enormous amount of generosity and kindness from each of you who put your heart into making these stockings! What an honor it is for me to call you my friends!

It's getting to be a ritual to include Daisy in these postings....she has it down pat....she is right in the big middle of things while I'm trying to take the pics. What the pics don't show is just before I'm about to snap the pic she usually races in from the side and plops down and poses right in the middle of the layout! She wants to be in the pics! So, DH always has to "babysit" her so I can get the pics and get the stockings up off the floor so she doesn't get on them! Then I'll be danged, as soon as I've taken the last pic she goes straight to her chair and falls asleep! So, the last pic I take is of "Miss Thing" all sprawled out. If you could only see her minutes before you wouldn't think it was the same dog! LOL!

I'm telling you, these pics do not do justice to these stockings, they are just gorgeous! Did ya'll notice there was even an appearance by Elvis himself in several?! I can't wait until we get them filled and that's going to be one heck of a photo shoot then!!! Trying to decide if I want to set up the assembly line tables in the warehouse, or if I want to decorate the conference room for Christmas and do it in there. Think I like the latter best! Oh what fun!!! By the way, I thought there were 97 stockings in this group....I may have counted wrong! LOL!

GP, that was fun! It was like playing "Where's Waldo" but looking for Elvis! I found him!

Everyone did a great job on the stockings! I love the variety of color and style and fabrics! What a truly great gift this is that we can provide for our brave soldiers!

Thanks for doing this project. I am honored to be part of it.
