  3. I don't know if you care but I deleted your comment on my blog only so that your email wouldn't be out there for spammers to find or whatever. Anyway, enjoy the game ideas! I hope the shower goes well! Maybe we'll chat again sometime!

  4. Anne,
    Sorry this is a belated birthday wish! I thought of you yesterday and remembered your 6th birthday party at our house when your mom was in the hospital with Erica as a newborn! May all your dreams come true this year and you be truly blessed. Sounds like you are a very happy newlywed!
    Love,
    Bonnie
