Way over the top is not for me either. <BR/>Our plan is to spend the summer by the pool as well, but someone needs to let our weather man know summer has started.

The message I received from your observations on your House Tour is that bigger doesn't often mean better, & it certainly doesn't automatically bring style & good taste! I guess that's how the term 'McMansion' has evolved.<BR/><BR/>How lovely to finish your day with the joy of meeting a new life - really doesn't get much better does it!<BR/>Millie ^_^Milliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15408461724832141163noreply@blogger.com
