um yeah we were award winning dammit!
groovey, I totally agree with a multitude of your answers. I am also quite the boring ... reader/sharpie lover/happy mamma/constant emailer/Ferris Bueller lover/etc. :)
That was great! I especially love that ya'll have retainer nights! lol!! Mike hates it when I have a retainer night! lol
OMG I can't believe you're friends with Jan. That is the coolest!
For such a negative person, you sure have a lot of positive things on your list!
I love these lists b/c it so fun to get to know people and see what you have in common. And b/c you've made me feel so much better about the fact that I haven't printed out any pics of Morgandy since her birth yet. :)
That was an awesome list. I wish I had thought about putting how much I love the smell of permanent markers on mine becuase I LUH-UV them. I also miss Big Swigs. So much cheaper than a $2 large Sonic Drink!
You are such a cool person. I wish I was you.
Thanks for the shout out - we can't wait to see you in just 6 short days!!! Are you really getting rid of the blackberry?? I can't believe it!!
I am jealous that you get to meet baby Colt and see Ty and Charis. Are they coming into town??
loved the list.
You should have another kid---once you get over the sleep deprivation bit it's almost normal. Besides, you did well w/the first--odds are you'll do just as well w/the 2nd. Am excited to see everyone (hopefully) in TX come october.
Love the list! I tag you to post more photos of Cooper, so we can see what his latest antics are!
