It was nice to finally see your 100 list but most of this I already knew. We miss you too and can't wait to see you in a few weeks. Brooklyn said today that she wanted to walk to Tessa's house and she was happy when I told her she was coming soon.
I love it - I too knew most things, but I didnt know you and John got married on the day you met - thats cool. The baking thing made me laugh - I cant make bread turn out either. I really do think you will make a wonderful teacher and you should definately go back to school. Even though you miss Summerland very much, I am sure glad you're up here with me
It was interesting readin things about you I didnt know. You are from Holland? Cool. Just kidding. I mean about the other things. I dont know if I will do a list. Im thinking about it. see you soon-
Great list! I asked for a Magic Bullet for Christmas :)
Loved reading your list. I was a gymnast too and still love it! It's nice to learn so much about someone I haven't met yet but look forward to meeting one day.
I think I learned a few things of you today! Where did you get the Idea to do this list! How do you do it!
Glad you did the list. And you said you weren't going to...yay! I tooknew most of those things...and I am soooo with you on the Summerland thing. Talk to you today, maybe???
