They will be the $100 deluxe size. <BR/><BR/>I really do want to bless people!!! <BR/><BR/>I have decided that giving is life at its BEST. <BR/><BR/>The drawing will be late afternoon on Saturday...wow that's tomorrow!Teresa @ Grammy Girlfriendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05151128140345216126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4212416519726161477.post-21480853168444523322009-03-27T23:30:00.000-04:002009-03-27T23:30:00.000-04:00OH, bummer!
