10, if it's available for this round. If it's not, then 8.

Got it, Erica, 10 it is!

I choose 7 if I'm in time!

You're in time, Heidi and 7 it is! 15 minutes left!

All righty, Round 6 is closed!

Back in a bit with the updated board.

Well, it looks like we could have a winner on this next round, but maybe not!

Players for Round 7 are

Jons - Ruth

Macs - Shirley

Crisps - Faye

You've got one hour, ladies!

Whoa! looks like we are into Round 8!

Players for this round are:

Team Jonathan - Jeanne

Team MacIntosh - Annie

Team Honey Crisp - Margo

You've got 1 hour, Ladies!

I've been watching the debate. I want to select a number for spaces so whatever I can pick starting with 10 for first choice, then 9, then 8 ... on down the list - 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. (Can you tell I'm confused about the rules? Sorry.)

Thanks!

Jeanne

Jeanne, if I'm reading you right, you picked 10 and thereby won the game for Team Jonathan! Congrats! The Jons are awarded 20 points for the win!

As you all can see by the game board above, the Jons needed 3 to win.

Thanks to all who played, I'll be back in the morning with point totals and a bingo word,

Sleep well, Everyone!

Shirley!

Congrats Team Jonathan. It was a close game!! Thanks sjc48 for staying up this late to finalize the game.

Hooray! (Even though I didn't totally know what I was doing... LOL)

Yes, that's right, Shirley, if 10 wasn't taken I wanted 10.

Jeanne

yay team jonathan! I cannot get my phone to let me post on the app...and I wasn't home most of last night...sorry I missed the rest girls...it looks like a blast! Shirley you have been so creative with your games!

Morning! Congrats once again to Team Jonathan!

Well, the month is almost over, and the games are just about done. I think we have a winner for the APPLE BINGO too!

Heidi, check your words, because the Apple Bingo word for the day is:

COMPUTER!

You were the only one to pick that word! Let me know if I'm right!

Here are the points:

Team Jonathan - 95 points

Ruth, Amy, Heidi, Jeanne

Team MacIntosh - 71 points

Annie, Nicole, Shirley, Erica

Team Honey Crisp - 60 points
Robin, Faye, Breanne, Margo

I'll be back with an updated SENT and REC'd list

Shirley!

The month sure ends so quickly. Thanks for hosting this month sjc48 and congratulations to all the winners.

So sorry I missed the board game fun!! I did not get home until late last night as I was out of town for a few days.....I stayed where I was until after the Presidential debate and then ventured home. Congrats Team Jonathon......

Shirley (sjc), I am up to host October. I will probably post on Friday if that is OK with you!!

Happy Tuesday!

Annie

That's fine, Annie, we should be just about finished here, by then.

Shirley, Thank you for all the fun this month! amy

Shoot - I'm working so many hours now I'm hardly ever home to play all these fun games....sorry Team! Yes I'm now working 10-11 hour days 6 days a week. Believe me I'm too old for this.

Shirley

I have missed the whole board game!!! I didnt know how to find the new thread. I clicked around until I found recent activity on Jeanne's thread. Faye you should have gotten your package if not let me know. Yes the month has flown by! I want to try some of the apple recipes. Just need to make time.

Oh Shirley--you had us on a wild Apple ride right up to the end. I just heard this and I wanted to share it.

The Apple Store in Wisconsin spends a great deal of time explaining to the people who call and show up that they sell apples...fruit....not computers!

Heidi

That's hilarious, Heidi! And have you checked your bingo words? I think you have a BINGO ! ! Let us know

Robin, I tried to send you a message about being on the wrong thread, sorry you had to miss out!

Shirley, there will always be another time! Hope the work slows down for you!

Thanks, Amy!

Spent the day battling this wretched headache, which doesn't seem to want to let go, anytime soon. I'll be back on in the morning!

Shirley

Good Morning!

Rainy and cold here, good day for staying inside!

My package is ready, I just need to get a card. My creativity isn't there right now and I thought I had something good in my card stock and I was wrong. I need to pickup a card tomorrow and will mail on Friday. Nothing like waiting til the last minute.

I will be doing my best to send Heidi's package out tomorrow. I am currently trying to finish up a crafty item I have been making for her :) Some deadlines at work have had to come first and with the whole fridge fiasco last week I got behind. I promise that it will be going out ASAP. I apologize again for the delay. Thanks for being so understanding Heidi!

Breanne

I received her card separately the other day with cherry tomato seeds that I was in need of. I never got any in the garden this year and I sorely miss them.

Thankyou so much for your thoughtfulness Nicole. You package is going out tomorrow. I'm sorry again about the delay. Margo

What a great idea, Nicole! Those baby outfits are so cute. Apples! Apples! Apples!

Jeanne

omgoodness Nicole what a great package! That was so thoughtful and adorable!

Good Morning, Ladies!

Nicole, great interpretation of the theme!

Well, I've checked the Apple Bingo Words and Heidi's list that she sent me and I have determined that Heidi is indeed the APPLE BINGO winner!

Shirley, that was a great idea to put us on teams. I really enjoyed that although I might be the first one traded off. LOL You are a wonderful hostess. Breanne--thanks! I'll have something to look forward to when I get back from my conference so if you don't hear anything that's why. Heidi

I was leaving to go to the post office and checked my mail box. There was yet another small package from target. Nicole also sent a cute little pack of socks for the baby. Nicole, you did such a thoughtful package. Thanks again.

Your package was mailed today. Should arrive Monday. Margo

Thanks for posting, Margo!

Thank you Shirley for hosting! Thinking about making potato pancakes with apple sauce this weekend. The apple theme was cute.

Thanks for a great month of fun, Shirley! I wish you could send some of your rain to us. Way too dry this year.

Jeanne

I ditto what Jeanne said, its way too dry and hot in my area too. Thanks for hosting!!

Good Morning, would you all keep Margo/smitties and her family in your prayers?

Since Heidi is off at her conference, I think that once we hear from Nicole, unless I missed her posting, this swap will be completed!

Shirley!

I just received my mail and received my APPLE package from Smitties. Thank you for the great items and appreciate the time you took to send it to me. The card is cute, she couldn't find an apple card so she drew them on the thank you card. THANK YOU AGAIN!

Thanks for posting, Nicole! And with that, I think we can declare this swap closed! Thanks to all who joined in the fun! Prizes will be going out soon!

Shirley!

Shirley, Thank you for the sweet prize! My Mom and I are going to enjoy the apple cider tomorrow. It is going to be cold in the 40's tomorrow! I love the cute apple card and recipe cards and the beautiful apple red tea towel! Thank you so much! Such a fun month!

Shirley, what a wonderful prize! It as fun to get it in the mailbox and fun to open it. Now I have a Husker Red towel to match the season!!! Love the stamp, too. I'm going to have fun with it and it's got my creative juices flowing! Heidi

Ladies, I'm so glad you are enjoying the prizes! I'm just sorry it took me so long to get them mailed out.

Heidi, you have inspired me so often, I thought a little payback was in order!

Shirley!

Thank you so much for the wonderful surprise prize. I love it.

And I just love the cards you make.
