Hey--remember mom--I not only found the birdcages--I did the decorating for your prom--trellis archway--flowers--tablecloths. It was fun and a greatltutoring lesson that probably started you on your party decorating career. I had fun getting things set up for the shower with you. We make a good team--only you move faster than I do. It was great fun for all the "Forsberg" women to be able to put this together for Marlee. We all make a great team...many thanks to you all....

Jessica said...

Jen said...
