Everyone knows that I am a conservative. I believe in conservative values and ideas. I don't hate liberals, I just beg to differ. I am enclosing a video I think people need to watch. Even though I have strong feelings about the things that the people in this video are staying, I still think it's worth posting.

I know that it has been a while since we got back from Minnesota and that I am usually uch better about posting pics. It's been a rough week! The girls have been in various states of sickness with Athen being the worst of the three. The air conditioner in the house broke down. Good news: Athen is on the mend and the 'good cleaning' that the air conditioner was given has breathed into it new life. The house was actually 73 degrees today. Amazing. Anyway, the newest collection is here http://ping.fm/X5DYU

Talk to you guys later!
