    another quick update: my buddy and his wife had successful transfer surgery on october 3rd, and they will be going back to the doctor on the 17th for blood work to confirm a pregnancy. at this point, there is still just a slightly better than 50/50% chance of miscarriage, so please keep them in your thoughts. i appreciate you all that keep asking for updates, and i know that i am slacking here, but i promise to have something for you all shortly (read: winners drawing).

    stay tuned...

    Fingers crossed. Have a friend going through this as well and it's hard to read their blog after a bit.

    Fingers crossed as well. just rounded up my donation, maybe it some weird way it will push their 50/50 odds slightly.

    all right, so i decided to go ahead and give away the 2 boxes since we have 169 total entries from 20+ different people, but the boxes will be larger than i originally thought. winners will pick from one of the 4 original boxes, and i will add to it as i see fit, but will include at least 2 beers from the other boxes that werent selected. that said, i entered each entry in to a random order generator, and the top 2 on that list are the winners. without further adieu...

    receipients to tbd. congrats to the winners and i cant thank you all enough for your support. my friends have a pregnancy test of tuesday, and bryan has been giving michele shots every night, and will continue to do so through december to ensure her body is in optimal shape to carry and have a successful pregnancy. i will leave the fundraising page open and will also keep you all abreast with updates as they move forward.

    thanks again everyone!
