Cool

Just sent $20 "friends and family" out of my PayPal balance. I did pay the 10¢ extra fee so you got the entire amount.

Glad I could help. I'll send more later

Not sure if his liver is up to the task

But he would be more than welcome here and I bet there are girls here that would like him.

I see some more funds rolled in since Ana sent something over last night.

Woody, Beau, Ben, Jeff, and Kermy..

$350 so far.. nice start!


Thanks Everyone!

I hope to make this the best year yet for them, we did really good here in our village but we ran out at the other small community I went to afterwards, and didn't have enough for all of them there.

If there is enough left over we will take care of them also this year.

Heck yeah it's ok!

I was beginning to think I might have to return it all back since we are still pretty far away from making this happen.

It's still early though.. and we still have a month to go.

I pretty much figured that, but was going to ask you guys when the time came if it happened what everyone wanted to do.

Last year was a slow start also but by the time came there was more than enough and turned out to be a great day for the kids.

Well... other than all of the rain we had that day.. they were happy, but soaked.

Default Update

We are up to $725 now

Moneys have donated by the following members in the order received.

77Babe
Woody
American Made
GentleBen
JRD77VET
Kerrmunchkin
DAB
American Made (again)
Truck Guy

Also there is a guy from CF who says he lurks here "PGP" that will be sending a check to Dixie.
(I told Dave he needs to quit lurking and join in with us here!)

I will update the total once I find out how much he sent.



Quick story..

The other day I was walking through the village and some kids stopped me and wanted to bless me..
(they hold your hand to their forehead and bow a little as it is a way of showing respect to their elders)

One little girl looked up at me with big brown eyes and asked if Santa was coming again this year.

Awwwwwwwwww..... it was sweet!!!!


I told her and the others.. I think he is.. I think he is..


I just want to say Thank You to all of you that have chipped in on this again this year.

I hope to make it a good Christmas for the kids again this year!

I don't have a lot to spare but I have a change jar that has a bit in it. Probably 20 bucks...maybe a little more. I don't know if that really helps much but it's yours. I'll take it to the bank and then put it in PayPal so I can transfer it.

Tim, refresh my memory please. How much money did we collectively contribute last year? I believe the total amount was north of $1,000 and if that is the case TheVetteBarn needs to get it together.

If we only have $375 it will truly be a poor Christmas for those children.

Hey Tommy,

Any chance that you would like to come over here for Christmas?

I know you would enjoy yourself here and you would also have fun being Santa.

It would be fun to not tell anyone here.. and they would only find out who was Santa when we posted the pics from Christmas day!

Also know some girls you might like here, one is my wife's other sis.. maybe you could end up being Me and Rob's brother in law..





I know someone will ask for pics of Sis..so... a pic from last years Christmas thread
