*******The Sign Ups are now Closed, we will email your partners this evening.
Thank you all for signing up, this is such a fun swap.**********
Welcome to our 2nd annual 4th of July Patriotic Swap.
Tammy Cummings and I will be Hostessing the swap together.
We will do things just a bit different this year with a couple of surprises.
First and foremost, Please, Please do not sign up for the swap if you are over committed with other swaps or have family summer/vacation plans that would keep you from following through with your part of the swap. Let's make this a fun swap with no hurt feelings, let's remember our Farmgirl Spirit, Farmgirl Heart and Respect for each other. Let us always remember what it means to be a Farmgirl!
1. The swap sign up will run from 15 May - 10 June. That gives you 26 days to make, purchase, collect...whatever you need to do to get your package together. Then June 10th when you receive your partner you will only have to put finishing touches on your package and get it in the mail so your partner will have it a few days before the 4th of July.
2. There will be just one partner per farmgirl, so who you will be sending treasures to will also be sending to you. We will not post partners on the forum, only the swap partners will know who they have. Then when you receive your treasures, you will post pictures on the forum, let your partner know your treasures have arrived and reveal who your partner was. You will also tell us a little something about your partner that she shared with you.
3. We ask that you MAKE your swap partner a 4th of July card and in the card you will tell her a little about yourself, your family, whatever you would like to share about yourself and/or your life. When your partner post her treasures and reveals who you are, she will tell us a little bit about you that she learned from your card. This will be a wonderful way for all of us to get to know other farmgirls a little bit better.
4. You may send to your partner whatever your heart desires, be it homemade, purchased, or a little of both, it is up to you. Just follow your Heart and the 4th of July Patriotic theme. No limits set on what you send it will be your personal choice.
5. Tammy and I will be sending each farmgirl who signs up and follows through with her part of the swap a 4th of July surprise.
6. At the end of the swap when every one has received their packages we will put all of your names in our 4th of July Hat and pull out one name for a Very Special Surprise from Mary Jane's Farm Store.
7. Last but never least we call this our 4th of July Patriotic Swap as we never want to forget the Men and Women who are fighting for our freedom, all living veterans and those who made the ultimate sacrifice for us. We must never forget any of them, always keep them in our prayers and thank them whenever an opportunity arises.
8. Remember that you will be Honoring Each Other by following through with your part of the swap. If you have any problems, questions or concerns please, please email Tammy and/or I. Please do not post any concerns on the thread, let's not ruin this swap for anyone.
Alright Farmgirls sign ups start now so let the fun begin!
Please email us your name and address if you will be joining the swap.
Thank all of you so much for being the Special Farmgirls that you are.
Hugs,
Debbie and Tammy

Aww Debbie, I would have loved to do this swap, but I'm planning my daughter's baby shower which is August 4th. I'm planning the party at my home so I feel I might be distracted and I wouldn't want to disappoint any of our farmgirls. But hopefully if you have another one next year (I know too far away to think about it) lol, I will join in.

Oh, what a wonderful swap! I am in...
And...my Grandma who lived in Iowa once showed me where she raised her children and the rising creek was an issue! One spring they narrowly escaped disaster when the creek the ran between their house and the road came up quickly.
Have a great day, ladies!
Warmly,
Pam
