Share an interesting fact that we don’t know about you.
Grandma
loves FLEURDILESES, I don’t know how to spell that, she also loves castles, anything from the
knights of the round table era, she LOVES to garage sale and usually buys
books, and knick knacks of castles, fleurdileses and anything with a knight of
the round table on it. Gayle’s
family helped her do a 2000 piece puzzle of a castle, it took at least 5 years,
but it is now glued and on her wall, thanks to Danny! She loves to go ANYWHERE,
