ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment on my blog today. I did not know who you were so was getting my argument ready! I've gotten only 1 or 2 negative comments and I always take it personally and begin to backtrack. Ha!
I'll go back and reply to your comment now. I like this blog, fun stuff here!
Busy, busy! Your prince of a son in law actually turned 40 not 45. He might be a wee bit offended! :) Thanks for the walk down memory lane.
