On a fair June day, three great women came a very long way.
They brought me a CD and a super-cute bag,
They brought me a CD and a super-cute bag,
and that tote was full of yummy swag!
I got a tiara, a sash, and a bouquet made of paper.
And, even the dogs got treats. Beef and bacon flavor!
They made us a lock, reminding us to close the door.
And, there was beef, sausage, a duck and more!
All in all, it was a fantastic day made possible by people across the USA.
I’m not sure if my heart has ever felt such elation,
and now my family won’t die of starvation!

Cutest post EVER. Best day EVER.
And you beat me to posting, with poetry even. Mine will be up later! xoxo
P.S. We'll have to do it again sometime, without the meat crisis. 🙂

OMG, they brought you CANDY? I mean, I know they brought you lots of meat but CANDY!!

That's awesome! Sounds like you guys had a great time. And from the tweets…sounds like WM was wasted. Can't wait to see the other posts about it 🙂
WeaselMomma
What a great day it was! I had so much fun and thanks for all the 'hospitality'. BTW, what the heck was Melisa tweeting when I wasn't looking?
Tom
"Nice to meat you." that's a hoot! I'm glad you got a chance to see the logo. That was Big Bad Daddy's handiwork.
Sounds like it was a real blast! How can you go wrong with craft projects, meat and candy?
NukeDad
Hopefully you had a nice, comfy picnic table for WeaselMomma to lay on and take a drunken nap. She's like that…I've got the pictures to prove it. http://tiny.cc/P8wyi

Why does "a duck" crack me up so much? I don't know. Maybe I just picture a duck chillin in the fridge.
Kori
And it couldn't have happened to a more deserving person.
OhCaptain
Very COOL!
So glad you also got the picture while WM was still able to stand…or are you guys really just holding her up?
Enjoy!

Alright, alright, to be FAIR…though in MY opinion (and probably anyone in the blood alcohol measuring field would agree), Weaselmomma was not fit to drive because of the "time vs. alcohol consumed" ratio, she wasn't a drunken mess. That little peanut can hold liquor like a champ. But she was not "wasted".
There, WM. I fixed it. You can pay me later. 🙂
Kim
That is just flippin awesome..all of it…
Sadia
Hooray. Here's to nice people helping nice people.
See, that sounds totally lame, which is why jerks make the evening news.

People are bloody good sometimes eh?

I'm a little late commenting, but wanted to add my two cents. It was a wonderful trip. Momo, meeting you was fantastic. Thanks for the warm welcome. I agree with Melisa, we should do it again sans meat crisis. And, no, WM wasn't drunk. She was feeling pleasant. And Melisa is a great driver and can drive my car anytime. (Oh, you too, WM!)

I have TEARS OF JOY over this!

Awesome. Just awesome.

I am sure their hearts were full as well. Not only did they bring the necessities, but the candy, tiara, dog treats, etc. made it a fun event for all! The world is good… Enjoy the duck!
Lisa@verybusymomwith4
Yay!!!!
I missed your last few posts–I am sorry you are going through such junk but if you weren't, you'd never feel all the love and generosity being sent your way!
Big hugs!!!

I love the picture. I was wondering if you had a pic of yourself. You're darling!!!!
Off- topic: Is Momo Fali your real name??? Maybe I've missed something, I'm slow like that. 5 kids'll do that to you.
