congratulations to all winners and thank you so much for H.MAs far as the little green trophies go...I do not care one way or the other {after all, it is not as if I plan on displaying them on my mantle]Maybe one of these days someone on AP will get creative and come up with a prettier design than any of these cheesy little things.......ribbons would even sound nicer to me...as in Blue for 1st place, etc
Thank you also for hosting,
reenie
