I hope whoever gets hkshooters name gets him a big 4 engine bomber with lots of parts.  Maybe  it'll take him a whole two weeks to build it. Wink [;)]

Come on guys! This really sounds like it's gonna be a fun build. No pressure (other than having to wait until Christmas morning to see what you get to build, DREW!!!!!) to get it done in any certain time frame. Shoot!! I saw where someone signed up for this one and they are still working on last years!!! It's all in the spirit of giving and fellowship with our fellow modelers.

And, again, NO!! Drew!! It's not Christmas yet!!! 

Come on guys, you still got 10 days!

A super fun thing too - look into your recipient. What do they normally build? It's fun to find something that fits into their theme of modeling, while being totally diffrent. Look at last years gifts posts /forums/24/682610/ShowPost.aspx#682610

It's a lot of fun to get something completely unexpected. Put some good thought into it and it make this fun for all of us! Big Smile [:D]

Is it that time again?  I am sooooo in.  I should be done with my last years secret santa project by month end.  It's hard to have some bench time working 3 jobs.  I will be so glad when I pay off all my debt and I can spend time with my family and working on models at my leisure. 

PM on the way...

OK.... I think I'm done with this bug. Just have to receover my strength.... it really took it out of me. Thanks for all the prayers and encouraging emails/PMs/posting- I can't tell you how much it means to me to have such a wonderful group of friends.

I think I've caught up with the GB member list. I'll update it in the first post, but I also wanted to post it here so everyone would see it.

Please check and see if your name is on the list- if you have emailed me within the last week and don't see your forum name, please let me know.

I'll be a bit slow updating the new guys today. I'm home with the flu and feel miserable. Hopefully I'll feel better tonight.
