Keepers
 
from Diane Davis: This1967 Pontiac GTO with 68,000 miles was meant for Matthew, but we think we'll save it and let Brittany drive it in 4 more years. The 1957 Black T-Bird with 312 engine for Melanie may not be useful unless someone gives us a bigger garage (hint).  
from Diane Davis: We'll probably keep the 2 front-row seats to Rolling Stones Concert at Arrowhead Duck Pond (smallest venue in 20 years), if we can find out where this place is.  
 from Christy Talley: We can't wait to go on a Windstar Cruise, the luxury liner with only 150 passengers. The only problem: choosing between the Mediterranean and Tahiti.
 from Janet Gubbins & family: Matthew really appreciates the symetry of this home in Tahiti. The nearby private island is also a nice touch and will eliminate some of the problems we have with not having enough space for all of our animals (and some of our friends).

 from Brad Massey: Brad, I never knew you had soooooo much class. If you are getting the Hope Diamond for me, then what in the world are you getting for your bride-to-be? Oh well, that's not my problem. Now I'm looking for a nice little dress to wear this with. Thanks Brad.
 from Brad Massey: Gosh, we haven't gotten a gift yet that we can't make some use of. Matt can't wait to go on the Thistle Golf Tour to Scotland. The best part may not be getting to "perfect" golf at St. Andrews, but the full Scottish breakfast served every morning. Hmm, who will be the lucky groomsman to travel with Matt on this trip?  
 from Gardner Sapp: Not one plane, but two - gee thanks Gardner - you are right, we do need a way to travel to all of these exotic places. (Click here to see Gardner's complete gift). However, we will need a new pilot (see "returns" section."  
 from Donna Schmitz: Just thinking about taking that trip to France and eating at Chateau de Saran (Moet & Chandon's world-renowned private, by-invitation-only restaurant) makes it very difficult to diet now! Maybe we'll take a "walking" option for the Champagne Tour of France part of this neat gift.  
Brittany (Hill), I love the rainforest PALACE and the bungalo and the house and the 30 acres with all the wonderful frogs, birds, porch monkeys, and other wildlife. I hope that if we ever move to this heavenly place permanently that you will come too and take over one of the treehouses! Click here to see Brittany's gift.  
from Lauren Skidmore Hobbs, Oh Lauren - you really shouldn't have gotten us the original Van Gogh - the Lexus was really more than enough. However, Matthew truly loves art so we'll put this piece is our guestroom and hope that you'll visit us very often. You and I can ride around in the Lexus - you are right, we'll "look good even on a bad hair day."

 

 Returns
 
  from Gardner Sapp: Gardner, I (Melanie) adore the planes but there is NO WAY that I'm going to ride in the sky with someone who "thills audiences with death-defying stunts" and "performs energy management maneuvers with both engines shut down." I don't care if he is in the Aviation Hall of Fame -sorry we've gotta trade this one in.
