Paper is still in there, I think everyone filled it out, but didn't count the names. I filled it out, and yes, it was fun to read:). What a great idea Sheri, wish I had thought of that with the Newbie box:).

My girls and I had a great time looking through the rock box on Saturday. It was packed full to the top. Here's some pictures of what we grabbed: Here's what we put back in: There's some midnight lace and rainbow obsidian, rutilated quartz, grossular garnet, India sunstone, mookaite, labradorite, rose quartz, and a cube of unknown greenish rock (shotgunner: might be good for a sphere). I reinforced a new box with the old box and repacked everything. It's on it's way to shotgunner and here is the delivery confirmation number 9405503699300090269140. Thanks!

Justin; you got it.
It is with uncharacteristic patience that I await arrival of this goody box!
Looks like I get it manana. I don't have a phone for pictures at the moment. It wont get here until Friday. Have to come up with a plan.
