Woo hoo, Folks! Thanks for playing.
This jar contained 339 gum balls… and that makes our winner:
JAMI VANDER KOOI with a guess of 340! Your algebra skills astound me.
Many of you were very, very close 🙂 You should maybe take up guessing as a personal hobby.
But seriously, Folks… if you ever just need a handmade item for posterity’s sake, talk to me! I’m happy to help.
If the trip went well, I should be pulling into TexasNorth’s driveway sometime this afternoon. Dad and I are splitting the drive. Mom is coming up next week when school gets out. While it was hard to leave Texas, we are ready to be home. Even with the weather. Even with the empty fridge. Even with the laundry. Even with the post-vacation attitude adjustments that will rule our life for the next month.
Talk to you, soon!
ps: there are new pictures on Flickr if your looking to kill some time

Darn it! I meant to guess! I thought about it as I went through my days doing laundry and dishes and exhorting, time and again, the girls to Please Pick Up the Little Pieces of your game/dress up dolls/castle building set: “Remember to guess those gumballs…”
I love, love, love the sweater and unashamedly admit that I covet your domestic skills.
