Hey Family,
I have a small obsession with quarters, no not the fun game you played in college involving drinking lots of water, but collecting state quarters. I say small obsession but I think actually it is really big and could be borderline on the unhealthily side. I never give exact change in hopes that I will get a new state quarter!!!! I have severe disappointment when I get no new ones, this is where I think the obsession is unhealthy.
Well my mom being the great mom she is, got me a really cool fold out map that has a place for all the state quarters and even the year they come out. I pulled my faithful map out last night to insure I was updated (which I do often, another unhealthy side)and to my HORROR, I am missing two 2007 quarters and I dont know if you all know this but it is 2008!!!!
So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE family I need you to also not give exact change, search your purses, pockets and change jars for the following state quarters:
Wyoming
Utah
I am unsure of what they look like but they will have the 2007 date, also it is 2008 so please keep your eye out for any 2008 ones, I DONT HAVE ANY!!! But they probably wont come out for another month or two. I need my sanity saved here, I am worried I may never find them and my collection will never be complete. I could be losing sleep even!
I love you all,
Emily
ps Grandmom and Pop got a cell phone !!!! How cool are they!!!

Emily, tell me exactly what you want. I still send a Christmas card yearly to Uncle T's old boss in Casper, Wyoming. I'm sure they will send me one. So tell me what to ask them for and I'll mail them a little note.

love you lots

You will probably get so many coins from Utah and Wyoming, you will be able to buy a plane ticket home... we can hope! I am on the look-out. The kids in school give me quarters every day to buy their lunch... let's see who is the first one to get them to you! Ready, set, to!
Seeing how I never seem to have cash (sorry Mom) there isn't much change around either but I will see what I can do!
Hey, is this just your way of paying your rent?
Hey, guys I need some $5 dollar bills with serial numbers ending in 084, 266, 396 and 098. They are for my collection....
wow guys!!!!
Thanks for all the effort already! Aunt Pam, the Wyoming quarter is 2007 and has a cowboy riding a horse on it! And just so you know Utah has two trains facing each other on it! Amanda, I was not thinking about rent however that is a good idea, i might try it. Also I need to talk to you about your friends in Tempe, Scott might take you up on the offer cause that is so close to Phoniex!
I have Utah for Emily!
congrats Paula!!!!!!
you are good,
my daughter is a little nuts
mary
I now have Wyoming too! Guess that's what happens when you have
20 kids bringing you quarters to buy their lunch everyday!
GO mom!
