I'm glad that I'm not the only one in the family that hasn't read the Bible all the way through. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd this clinches it for me. You guys have to come up here next summer so we can all go to Yellowstone together! Rob has never seen Old Faithful erupt either, and by golly, those boys NEED to!
Hey, Matt has done #95 and #96. I have a picture of him sitting on a cannon with Lisa at the Alamo. (He was born in San Antonio,Texas.)
ReplyDeleteAND! We all went and swam in the Great Salt Lake in 1982 and then visited Great Grandma Edith Wiseman Edwards for lunch. She and Grandpa Edwards put on quite a spread for us. Ham and potato salad. Yum.
Amazing how many of those 99 activities you two have done.
I was going to point out that Matt has definitely done #95 and #96, but I see Mom beat me to them. So I will instead say that Matt has surely taught himself a second (and third) language(#36). He's been to a drive-in theater (#54), and eaten caviar at a ward party in France--it was on toast or something (#71). We weren't impressed.
