Congratulations all ...It would have only better if I had one. But it really was a fun time ... and it only cost an acorn.

Not much these days going for those prices Hilarious! Hilarious!

And what fun to watch Little Man do his own thing... aren't kids wonderful.

Will we have a non raffle in July????? Maybe I'll win next time.

It really was a great raffle with great prizes!

Yes, we will have a raffle in July. I think at this point it's a tradition to do it each month. I currently don't have anyone lined up to host next month, so if you'd like to host a raffle, shoot me a tree mail with what you'd like to offer up. If nobody steps forward, I'll have something worth raffling myself. Smiling

Congratulations to the winners!!! Little man is so adorable, even if he wasn't quite in the mood for drawing the winner today. His cuteness way makes up for that!

And I agree with the others--this is such a great place to be. I agree

Hurray! Hurray! I can't believe I won Sharon's painting. My heart is about to burst with happiness at the thought of seeing it hanging in my home.
Thank you so much Sharon. Group hug

All of it has been so much fun. I almost started crying Dave when you tucked the names between Little Man's toes. It was like I got to touch him, and his little feet are so sweet. Lovey dubby

Congratulation to the other two winners.

That's because we didn't get to spend any acorns last month, we spent them all this month. Whistling

Wow!!! Thank you all for your congratulatory comments. And thanks to everyone who made the raffle happen. Congratulations to the other winners, Lynn and Chris. The video is priceless, Dave. Thumbs up

I keep a list of gotta-have plants and only allow myself to get a few of those each year. Gloriosa lily is on it. Thanks to the raffle, I can cross that one off and can now rationalize getting a few extra plants from the list next year, in place of the Gloriosa! Whistling

Thanks so much for your generous prize, jmorth!

I think she will be back by Tuesday or Wednesday. I had called her to check her treemail so she would learn of her winnings, I led her astray by mentioning Trish. Rolling my eyes.

Just could not wait till next week for her to learn about it... Don't think she will be checking the site too often until she returns. Her Husband and daughter are there so no problem about it getting picked up. Hurray! Hurray!
