Very cool theme! I really enjoyed it!

Did you go and sign up on Susie's blog to let everybody know you're participating. I'm afraid I don't get a lot of traffic so you won't get noticed if you only posted with me. *sad but true*

Welcome to the 55!

Everytime I drive and sing in the car.. my 15 yr. old tells me ( with a serious face!).. Mom, you should try out for american idol! haha 20 years too late and with no talent... I just love that compliment.
