Thanks for doing the tag!
Fun post! :D
Thanks for the tag! I will post soon. :)
Sarah--
Hmmmm...is tagging mean someone wants you to do eight things...in the same catergory that they made?
Hope that makes sense! Does that make sense?
Anyways, I enjoyed reading your post...I already knew the first two..you told me the first at church today, and I knew you always read the Bible!
Did you get me mail? (It hasn't been working lately...that's why I was wondering.)
I disagree with you on rain. I absolutely don't like rain. You described it well for someone who likes rain...but I always thin of it as cold, dreary, wet, muddy, foggy days. *shudder* It's soo boring if you sit watching the rain rain down. It makes me feel cold. ! LOL
How could you make a Civil War Ball GOWN!? You told me about that, and said if we do, I should help. I should help! Yikes, I'd ruin it to pieces! I can't even sew a simple skirt..that shows how badly I cannot sew..specially on the machine! :) LOL If we did make it, you know what? To make it look nice...how can you iron a civil war ball gown??? :) LOL LOL LOL!!!
HA HA! That's funny! Peanut butter balls flying through the fridge!
Wow! What were the words you learned in Norwegian?
Okay what happened to the casseroles that went on the Fair on the same day?? (I'm very curious.)
Oooh! Yum! I loooove fudge...and I difinitly love key lime pie! Mmmm..oh dear, now I want some now! :) LOL *giggle* (but it's true..the crust is my favorite part!)
Umm..why are you making a cross-stitched baby bib?
Oooh!! You're making a sun dress! Prettiful! Do you know what color it will be??? Sundresses always remind me of yellow and blue. Is it any of those colors?
Fair projects--umm..maybe I'm late at this post, but...am I right in thinking the tomorrow is the last day of the fair?? Are you working on like stuff to make for NEXT YEAR's fair? Or am I reading this post late?
This is my longest comment yet!! :) LOL!
Luv u!
Love,
Hannah
P.s. Hope to see you at Shawano County Fair tomorrow. (You should see all the stories I wrote when I was seven and five!) *LAUGHS*
Sarah--
I think my comment was too long...umm..did it still send to you?? (It took me ten minutes to write that!!) HMM..LOL
Luv,
Hannah
