A BIG Thanks to the BRW Crowd gals


Jon and I got the best surprise today. Two big boxes from amazon were at our house. Jon opened them up (assuming I had done some early baby shopping) and was so surprised to see the great gals from the BRW crowd had bought us some baby gifts. They are great!! We got the ocean wonders fishbowl toy, the ocean wonders aquarium that hangs on the crib, and a birdnest...a kind of really nifty bassinet/baby carrier.

Jon and I are deeply moved by the generous gifts. It is such a strange and wonderful time in our lives right now. When we were looking at the presents the baby even moved a couple of times. Way cool!!

So thanks again to Alice, Shirley, Cath, JennM, Danielle, JennR, Cherry, Nikki, Nicole, Jodi, Lise, Maria, and Veronica. You gals are awesome. I know the baby (and Jon and I) will have a great time with the fishy toys!!! Thanks again for thinking of us and the baby. We love all of our friends here at TRT!

Brooke and Jon

I'm glad you liked it Brooke and Jon; it was fun doing it for you



(The only hard part was remembering to take your name out of the BRW mailing list; I always double-checked to make sure I didn't spoil the surprise! )

Well it was a definite surprise! ...And a reminder of all the fun we're going to have with the baby.

Thanks again to all of you for organizing the surprise for us!

I wanted to say a very big thank you.

I was VERY touched by it. I am glad that we have gotten to know you fine ladies, and I hope to meet more soon.

that's really nice of you brw's i truly love this family here..

umm, i dont think the j crowd could compete with that, we're all a little off our rockers, and might not be so good at picking out gifts....... but....can we pick out something JUST FOR JON?

we'll let johnny do the purchasing

i'm just really worried about what you might receive from the CLR's if they let buzz do the shopping :bigeeek:
