Next, we were treated to a wonderful BBQ which included barbequed tri-tip, pork, or chicken; macaroni and cheese; potato salad; coleslaw; baked beans; cornbread; rolls; and frosted brownies for dessert. YUM-O!
After that, the raffle began. Each person received one raffle ticket upon arrival, and only one prize was allowed per family. They were giving away $5,000 worth of prizes including electronics, tools, gift cards, and toys. We sat and watched Floyd’s co-workers winning all sorts of things. Next was one of the Grand Prizes: a Sanyo 32” flat screen TV. I heard them say One-Eight-Eight and flew out of my chair and up to the front. 188 was MY number! It seemed too good to be true. But it was! I won the TV! Tooooo Coooooool!
Me & my TV
I am so happy for you Jeanie. What a wonderful prize. Hope you'll let Floyd watch some tv with you :-) Diane Arthurs
ReplyDeleteHi Diane~
ReplyDeleteOh, I will!! Floyd & I had been discussing the upgrade to a flat screen TV and planned to buy one within the next few months. Now, we'll have the cash for something else. We think of winning the TV as a team effort: we had the opportunity because of Floyd's employment with the company, and I had the right ticket! ~js.
Yeah, now you are HD ready!! How fabulous to win and something that you really want/need.

WOW, I'm jealous. We're going to get one this year. I don't know if you heard, Bubba is working on base now :) Yay! He left a message for Floyd awhile back, not sure if they have talked though. If not, tell Floyd to give him a call in the evening (after 6) when he has a chance. Talk to you soon.

ReplyDeleteVery very cool. We need to have a movie/popcorn day!! -ds
