Thank you all. I was telling my quilty friend this morning that I plan on making a couple of charity quilts with some of the FQs also. I feel so lucky to have won this that I too feel the need to pay it forward.

I just hope my luck holds out, I leave for Vegas on Saturday !! Going to see Cher Sunday night!

So what are we all going to do tomorrow morning? Guess I'll actually have to start working sooner - I usually check the numbers while checking the other email.

CONGRATS GIRLS!!!

wow - or rather whew what a day and long evening it has been. After story time we met our lunch date - daddy for luch at McDonalds - but guess who forgot the baby food me - so I had to call him and have him meet me at the Wal-Mart and he sat in the van with the kids while I ran in real quick.. or as quick as a mom can be who eyed the cutest Red/White/Blue matching outfits for the twins on Clearance rack to wear for the 4th of July!!

after that - My best friend called and asked if I needed her to watch all of my kids while I went to the grocery - WHY yes!!! so I dropped off the kids.. both tiwns were asleep thankfully! b/c she was in the middle of bfeeding her baby when I got there. and I felt like I was invisable while shopping at the grocery!! I didn't have to tug and pull at the cart and stroller or have to worry about Nora wondering off! IT WAS GRRRRRRREAT! and at the check out the checker who knows me asked wehre the kids were and I told her my best friend offered to keep them -and a shopper behind me said "oh that is a best friend!" and the checker said no that is an ANGEL b/c Bonnies 3 kids are all under the age 4! and the shopper about lost her drink she was drinking LOL

tonight David worked late which pushed all the bedtime stuff back a bit too.. but thankfully everyone is in bed and happy it has been a little rough the last week or so for the twins at bedtime - we dropped the breathing treatments... (dr said we had to do it thru April so we quit May 1st) and they have had to learn to go to slepe on their own. Olivia is pretty good but so far Paul Thomas is still resistant to ending his day.

oh and did I mention here with all of you that he took his first steps a week ago today? and ever since has been getting better and getting more and more confident. Olivia on the other hand has no interest whatsoever and if you hold her up she gets the noodle legs LOL

so 7 people have contacted me so far with their bingos. and in a week or so I will be heading to the post office with their boxes filled up with FQs! and also the outside boarder winners packages of their 10 FQs each.

and as far as 2009 goes - I have plans alrady and will be contacting all of this years players *(by groups) at the end of this year for signups via email 1 group per week for a month and get as many presignups as possible before posting here on the board. That way I am not floored with emails for signups!

it will be here before you know it too!

thanks again to all of you for playing - this is the GREATEST FQ Bingo on line!!! and it is b/c this HGTV board is THE BEST!

Love from Texas! ~bonnie

I sure would love to sit and go through all those FQ's and pull out a lot of the nature/landscape fabrics.

Congrats to all!!! Have fun with all your pretties...

Bonnie, thanks again for another wonderful job this year. (Is it time for the next game yet -- ha, ha...just kidding!!) Take a breather Bonnie; you deserve it!!

Congratulations to the winners!! Thank you Bonnie. This was a BLAST!!!! Glad I played.

Congratulations to the winners!!

From a newbie - this was fun! I enjoyed each day (wish I had won!!!). Thanks so much Bonnie and I'll be back next year!

I do have to say I am a bit envious of the winners but I know your stashes will be magnificent! Has anyone ever posted completed works from the winnings??

CONGRATS!!!! It is so neat seeing all the winners listed. Enjoy your package when it comes - it was so exciting last year when going through my winnings and sorting them.

Downsouth and Lisa, I'm with you, if I won this year I was going to share - not telling how. I still have several FQ's sitting here, but have been using them for 'paid it forward' by using them for Sunshine Quilters blocks and other works.

Hate to see this end - so gripping looking every morning to see what numbers were called.

Love the way you, Bonnie, broke this up into groups and 2 ways of winning giving several people the opportunity to share in the FQ jackpot. GREAT JOB!!

ENJOY EVERYONE.... now anticipation of next year's game.

Bonnie, those outfits sound adorable.

Your friend is an ANGEL - this is the type of help all mom's can use.

Aw, hope you had the camera around to catch the first steps.

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE WINNERS!!! GOOD JOB HOSTING BONNIE. LOOK FORWARD TO NEXT YEAR.

Bonnie ~~ I just want to say you are an AWESOME HOSTESS !!! And how organized you are... running this huge bingo game with 3 kids, and already planning next years organization... YOU ROCK, BINGO BONNIE! Thanks for all the fun...... but what do we do with email now???

I will definately be paying it forward also - I already do a lot of charity quilts so will enjoy having even more fabric to choose from. I can't wait to see them all.

Doesn't it seem weird to not see the numbers on the e-mail now?

Congrats to all of you girls who won! And those who are recipients of the winners fq's too! as we share!!!!!

Congratulations to all the winners. Had fun, even though I just came close!

LisaP8 - Jeremy was in my group and every once in a while I thought that if I did win, I would feel a little guilty. Taking a win from such cute little guy !

Congrats to all the winners!! Enjoy the booty girls!!

I was so close too - 1 number to go......
