LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE it Lonna! So glad you did it because now I know so much more about you. We really are kind of related, aren't we? :) Thanks for reading mine and I had a great time reading yours. Hope everyone else does it too.
I read the whole thing! Fun, Lonna! I was so excited to see you did this--I hope others continue Jillian's cool post.
Like you, I don't like scary movies or grocery shopping. Can't stand it. Love chick flicks and would love to have you over sometime to do that and sob together. I love that you blog often too!
I loved learning more about you, Lonna....though I wasn't surprised at your Jane Austin comment. I think you are very interesting and learning more about you just made me love you all the more!
Syl
Are numbers 56 and 57 related? And we definitely need more details on numbers 68 and 43.
Can't you use 64 and 65 to make up for your problem in 80? Maybe you're not playing the right games.
That was AWESOME!!! I loved learning things about you... I love chick flicks, could cry at a moments notice. And I love Dr. Pepper. Soooo cool.. I would love to take the challenge.
Love
Suzy
Lonna,
There's no way I'm not going to make it to the end of that! I loved getting to know you better. I had to laugh because I think we have developed some of the same personality traits being married to brothers who are almost genetically identical. Being a good loser at games and procrastinating, for instance, are things we definately have in common! Who knew? I also love the one about electronics for gifts. James has got his work cut out for him.
All we can say is, even knowing all this and more about you; You are still our favorite LONNA!!!!!!. And your dad would surely say as he always does; "Thanks for having that wonderful little girl." I agree with the whole thing, and I might add she was a great trend setter. Anything she started, everbody wanted to copy, so it is a good thing she was a good example, and chose good things to start. Fun things that everyone enjoyed.. Love mom.
loved it. I want to see pictures of you with long hair.
I had a ton of fun reading this!
