I was laughing out loud when I read your list of favorite snacks and ALL the different kinds of ice-cream. :) You are definitely my mom's sister! There's probably an ice-cream lover in all of us. I could ice-cream everyday, and I'm sure there are weeks that I have! Oops! I didn't know you didn't like peanut butter. How fun to learn new things about you!
I love any kind of chocolate ice cream with nuts in it too. Do you realize you should like peanut butter, because it is made with nuts?
I can't believe someone with a motorcycle named the mansion of love waited till over the altar to kiss such a hot mama.
You should blog more, because that counts as journaling.
And finally, thank you for coming to Girls Camp with us instead of going to Africa. I bet Africa would have been more fun, but I would have missed out on a few memories of you!
I love mud pie too. You should probably make it for me when you see me. You are so skilled at putting your tongue up your nose.
Can't wait to see Jyllian's quilt!! Not to mention the ski boat and houseboat someday. :)
Where is McDonaldville, ID, and when did you live there? Is that where you picked up that nasty habit of licking your nostrils?
Can I have your email address so I can send you an invite to my blog? Thanks! meganbauer15@hotmail.com
You were a great piano teacher. I am on FB with Kristen and found your blogs. Great to catch up with your families.
