It was so fun reading your list. I need to get to know you better-we have a lot in common! I loved the singing in the rain reference. That's one of my favorite movies. I also love that you introduced us to the beauty of the lime. We use them all the time now! I also love the picture of you--you really are beautiful! -B

Your list rocks! I also have to tap my soda can before I open it and Clay thinks it's the strangest thing ever.

I need to make a list of all the things on YOUR list that I want to talk to you about next time we see each other. Like 'Salute Your Shorts' - I LOVED that show!!

Miss you guys!
