Dear Brenda, After seeing your post, I noted we share several of the same surnames: Surnames: MOUNTS/MOUNTZ/MOUNCE, CLINE/KLEIN, SPRATT, BLANKENSHIP, TRENT, RUNYON. I will continue to do some comparisons on your research; however, I think we are most likely related. Thanks for the thorough posting.

Hello everyone. It is snowing with a cold blustery wind here in Fayette County, WV. But I woke up at 5:00 a.m. to the sound of thunder! Have a great day. Anita
'Twas the night of Thanksgiving, But I just couldn't sleep I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep. The leftovers beckoned - The dark meat and white But I fought the temptation With all of my might. Tossing and turning with anticipation The thought of a snack became infatuation. So, I raced to the kitchen, flung open the door And gazed at the fridge, full of goodies galore. I gobbled up turkey and buttered potatoes, Pickles and carrots, beans and tomatoes. I felt myself swelling so plump and so round, 'Til all of a sudden, I rose off the ground. I crashed through the ceiling, floating into the sky With a mouthful of pudding and a handful of pie. But, I managed to yell as I soared past the trees.... Happy eating to all - Pass the cranberries, please. May your stuffing be tasty, May your turkey be plump. May your potatoes 'n gravy Have nary a lump, May your yams be delicious May your pies take the prize, May your Thanksgiving dinner Stay off of your thig

Hi Cos, We are carrying in at Jennifer's home tomorrow. The kids dad and his family will be there too which is no problem to me. Yes, I would love to have a baby sized quilt for Meg with a tag at the squares. I will talk to Jen and see if we can round up the tags to send you. How many do you think? I am sorry to hear about Wilda's granddaughter. That is so young. I am keeping Meg, yes, it will just be about 8 days a month now. She is a joy, a very good baby. She rolls from one end of the room to the other. My kids are doing fine. June comes over about once a month now that she is retired and summer is over. I am enjoying seeing her more often. The car's in my parking lot are covered in snow now. I do hope you have a wonderful family time tomorrow.
