You and Sheila have both listed costa vida as one of your favorite places to eat--i think I need to go there :)

I am glad to see you guys are doing so well. I have been asking my dad to see if any of my cousins have blogs so we can see how they are doing for months now. I finally called him and had him forward my email to your mom while I was on the phone with him. Don’t worry Mark having a mini-van is not so bad. I am finally getting over the embarrassment now that three years have gone by :)

This was so fun to read! Didn't know you wanted to join the mini-van club. It is great and tell Mark that Chris loves it - he says it makes him feel like a Dad!! I am off to go do the tag now, stay tuned for my answers!!
