OMG! Your car!!!! Nice to learn more about you.
I love that you're a flag twirler. We just don't have that here.
Now, about your car, it is so weird, but i have been meaning to write a post about the same car! I love them, and I am not a convertible type at all,but I would gladly drive one of those beauties! I've had the images saved in my computer for several weeks now, and keep meaning to write about the woman I saw driving her gorgeous Roadster across the Richmond Bridge one hot afternoon. It left me dreaming about one day having the $$ for one of my own. The pics I saved are even the same color as yours, odd....
I love your fur coat, you look qiute divine in those photos!
ok. so Courtney. not sure we can be blog friends anymore. One of your favourite movies contains OOMPA LOOMPAS!!! - coooourtney!!!! But I'll forgive you. this time. Love the sound of the photo of your grandparents. And lizards are gross. Too many of them here! - give me a big hairy spider anyday but a little lizard, eek!
my husband just sold the 1960 Corvette + the 1962 Airstream--he said he wanted to let someone else play with his toys :) Actually, I think we'll be "homeless" soon--as in 6 months in Paris, 6 months in Chicago, 6 months in Portland, or wherever--and we need to empty the toybox to do so.
Oh I could definitely use your space planning! I'll be completing the survey tomorrow! What fun!!!
Hi Courtney, Your Dad's pepper roast is also one of my favorites!
Megan: I went to an all girl's high school and we were the danceteam for the all boy's school around the corner. No one would try out for the flag team, so they made the dancers do it. We ended up having a blast...and I learned a "skill" I never thought in a million years I would do.
Kimberlee: I thought about you when I typed that! I'm so sorry, but just think of all that lovely candy and lickable wallpaper. YUM!
Benson: Seriously?!!! OK I'm not sure whether to wipe away the drool from your upcoming travel experiences or the fact that you owned a vintage Airstream. Nice!!
Sarah: I can't wait to see your answers!
Denise: It brought a smile to my face to see you comment!!! And, yes, Dad's roast is incredible. I'd even have some for breakfast right now if I could.
Yay!
And OMG, Coming to America? Soul Glo! That's one of my favorites ... along with Boomerang and the coordinating Mushroom belt, jacket, etc. Hee!
You KNOW I had to...
i wish i had the ability to say NO to any sort of self-indulgent list!!! but i can't. so i thank you.
xo
Kelly
I would like a question that asks what kind of movie you would make. I would make one that's about a group of sign twirlers
