Went on a quick trip to Jackson
the entire month of may is GONE (
wth?)
Chris is on his Washington DC trip.
Ok so I lied, not much HAS happened. That's it - those are the highlights. How sad is that? I mean not that we didn't have day to day fun or even bad times but that is basically it. Now you know why I don't post?

Ross house)
