Copyright

Some girls here did this art project a little while ago and I saw it and decided I would copy it and make one too. Since I already had the paper for the background and letters, and the wood shop gave me the scraps for free, it only cost me $5.50 to make it - and that's because I had to buy a new container of modpodge for $4.25! Becca - I know you would love this, if you want me to tell you how I did it, let me know!

V-day love

I had to show you the vase (the flowers too, but I'm more excited about the vase) that Tom got me for Valentines! It's so cool! I love it!

Yes, I am annoyed

Alright, so I love to read the posts when other people get tagged, but Becca was right, I'm shaking my head and rolling my eyes at you! For the love!!!!! (Ooh, remember that and how much it used to drive you crazy?) Anyways, you asked for it Becca!
1. What was the best thing you cooked last week? BBQ ribs
2. If money, time and babysitting were no object, where would you go and with who? I've never been to a tropical island, so I'd probably go there and I guess if I have to take someone, I'd take Tom.
3. When was the last time you cried? A week after Brighton was born - she and I just weren't connecting on the whole nursing thing. No worries, it's much better now!
4. Five things you were doing 10 years ago?

5. Five things you were doing 5 years ago?
1 - Dating the last loser before meeting Tom

3 - Making fun of Shaina's boyfriend every chance we got (good thing we finally got rid of him!)
4 - Laughing at Brittany's and Shaina's ritual morning battle over the temp in the apartment
5 - Covering my eyes before entering my apt each night so I wouldn't catch Becca and Mike making out or anything
6. Five things you were doing 1 year ago?

5 - The time we were all studying in the living room and Becca and Holly came out in bikinis and started performing some sort of hula dance for us!

So I guess now I have to "tag" four more people? Hmm, Becca already took 2, so I'll tag 1)Janelle so she doesn't escape this whole tagging thing. 2) Camille because as exciting as it is to know they're having a girl, she needs to post something new! 3) Emily cause Dan's recovering from surgery and should be watching Hailey 24/7 to make up for the time he was deployed. And 4) Jenny to complete the U-Hall circle and help me represent U3.
