What a great idea for a blog post, and I may have to steal your idea.
Very moving, but I need some items clarified;
1) what is a "beach cruiser"?
2)"MF" ring?
3)Chris' karaoke - What are the tunes your fella sings that you really like?
4)Vanity Fair - the book or the magazine?
Again, great post. Much to be thankful for on your list - lots of family, friends, and your beau Chris!
Beach Cruiser is my bike.
MF = Mignon Faget. New Orleans jewelry designer. Chris sing Frank Sinatra really well. Dave Matthews too. Vanity Fair magazine.
What a great list!
Lovely post...funny how you really get a sense of a person from a list like this.
Wow, Jen good post. When do you find the time...
