Boo tagged me...And now I've finished!! By the way, I have been meaning to write about Alana's blessing, but I was dumb and didn't take pictures yet (and now she's even more bald!) So I will write about that and post pictures of her in her sweet blessing gown! It was a great occasion though!

LOVED it! Nice work. It's a lot harder than it looks huh? I laughed so hard when I read that you murder plants. ha ha! And don't you think it's weird that more people don't like scary movies? I don't know how people can watch those things. p.s. the matching shoe thing...me too!!
I feel dumb but I just barely read your list--I started it awhile ago then didn't have time to finish it but at least I did finally! :) One thing, I have to add--you like using exclamation points!! :p I can only tease you about that because I use them ALL the time too!! :P Maybe theirs a diagnosis for that...exclamationitis? :)
It was fun to learn more about you and find ways that we are alike. Like sticky notes! I had forgotten you'd run 10Ks! I'm hoping to do a 5K with Chris again soon and this time run it with him (instead of going ahead like I did last time!! I felt mean but it was a good run for me!), then train and run a 10K. I'd love to hear your input on training and doing one. I've just done 5Ks.
