Dear GP, Family, and elves,
What a monumental task you all performed for our soldiers! Seeing the pictures made me laugh and cry at the same time! (Not a pretty sight! lol) Thank you all so much for all the time, effort, and money that you contributed to this cause! I vote for Nelson Business Product as Business of the Year! In fact, I may even write Bill in as President in the 2008 election! God bless each and every one of you for doing this!

Also, thank you to all the wonderful Angels for making so many beautiful stockings! Let's all pat ourselves on the back for a job well done!
Long live the Queen Peach!

I gotta know - did you get the same postal worker this time? If so, what was her response to you *this* time knowing what the many boxes were for???

I take it the handsome man you were hugging is your dh? Looks like a nice fellow.

Wonderful pictures and a great job. There will be some very grateful men and women this Christmas, knowing that people back home appreciate their sacrifices. DH was deployed during the holidays 2 years ago and I know how happy the soldiers feel when they are remembered by others, not just their families. Pam you and your family of elves truely have a reserved space in heaven for all your hard work.

Just love the Santa in that close up picture with you. Not to mention the crown necklace.

A monumental effort for our wonderful troops. May they bring to each recipient the assurance of our love and support for them.

Thanks for doing this, and inviting us to participate.

My DH is in Afghanistan this year and he received a stocking someone had made. I don't know if it was donated by you, but I did want you to know how appreciative he was. Things like this always make the holidays a little bit brighter over there. Thank you for thinking of the deployed soldiers during the busy holiday season.
