Garage Sales PWN!
So my broskie and i went to Chelsea's garage sale and i found this funny looking book called "Parents, UGH!" I thought the title was hilarious, it reminded me of Christy and I waking up in the morning and just yelling "UGHHHH!" to eachother or saying it when we were supposed to do chores or something. I can't wait for her to come home! A year is a long time. Anyway here is part of the last chapter:
