You two are something!! These all fit us pretty well, I think!! Might just be my opinion..
I read your comment at Maria's about Bae not believing anymore.. do what my mom did.. She wanted to keep us all in line, so she tells all the kids, when they learn the truth, "you know, Santa quits coming when no one believes"... believe me, no one wants to quit getting their stocking stuff and gifts!! So we ALL believe totally!!!LOL At least you'd think so to hear us. Even when John and I were mid/late 20's and single, we still had Santa and our stockings!!LOL We're not stupid!
