Hey Rachelle,
It's Emily (Curry) Burnette from Wenatchee :) I think you messaged me about 4 months ago on my blog. So sorry I didn't respond sooner! I'm pregnant with our first and morning sickness had been my constant companion until recently. But it's so awesome to see your family! Your kids are precious! We live in Seattle...you guys are close by right? You can email me at emily.burnette@gmail.com. Take good care :)
Em
I love to hear all the things that you love!! Wasn't it nice to just sit down and think about all of those things...it is theraputic! I love and miss you! Fantastic list!! You are amazing!!
That is a great list. I want to cut and paste it to my blog, except I'd have to put in Jacob's name for Mikes, but I have a ton of the same loves. Super fun to read!
