23. I gave the church part up
Mon Feb 15, 2016, 08:05 AM
Feb 2016

It was a three blunt ordeal. Just to show up to check out each other outfits. Well, we did have cake and chicken and ribs and greens after wards. Pecan pie. Sock it to me cake. 7up cake. Delicious cookies. Ham. Um, I think I went for the food.
