Wednesday, June 25, 2014. That is a great way to make a garage! And a cool up painting. Is this not the Mr. T VAN? EVERY one is crazy down here for the world cup! My companion is the one in the middle, and the other is our ward mission leader who got home from his mission a few months back. he is way cool! My little buddy with his "Cuie" He is two, and has his little horse, but i always call it a cuie, and try to steal it from him, and so he calls it his cuie now! So cute this kid! Once again it is pday!
