That was not boring! I'm proud of you for doing those - 100 things is a lot! I especially like the things you wrote about Mike and the kids...it is so evident how much you love your family. :) Love you, woman! Miss ya like crazy!!
I feel like you are a million miles away too. I will be so glad when schools out so I can see my grandkids. I hate this. Also, how come you didn't put down how much you HATE bees!!!!
I love you to big sister! I wasn't bored at all! In fact I laughed at a lot of them lol. I wish Avery was doing as well as Jo was with potty training.. I thinks he's going to be 6 before she quits wetting her pants...
Oh yes 101... I Hate Bees! :)
Love you Kate!
Its fun to read about your childhood memories. (I'm still a sheep lover by the way.) I'm so happy for you & Em that you're such good friends, after all those crying times when she was little. :)
Also, you might not have scrapbooked for awhile, but you've sure done a lot of great blogging, can you turn your blog into your scrapbook?
Not boring at all, infact you inspired me to do one too. Love you lots and can't wait to see you guys soon!
Wow ~ you are a blessed blessing!
I loved reading this Katy. Not boring at all! I'm sorry it took me so long to comment about it. : )
I believed Papa, too! His scar was sooooo convincing. : )
And you are right. I love to sleep at Nana's house. Everything is so pretty, clean, and smells so good. I want to be a homemaker like her.
Miss you!
Katy, I loved your 100 things. It brought back memories of you when you were a litle girl.The comments about Papa brings tears,how I wish your children could know him,but they will have to wait 'til we all meet in heaven.Thank you for the nice comments about sleeping at my house. I've been lazy about hanging my sheets out to dry lately. I will do better from now on.I love you Katy and I love your family. I feel like you are so far away now. My biggest wish is that my entire family, kids ,grandkids and greatgrandkids ALL lived within walking distance of me. Thanks for spending time here yesterday.
