Ok so I think that is about it. Random facts on all of us. I think its great that a family that is so different can get along and love each other the way we do. Curtis and I have a lot of common interests but our personalities are very different too. I would say that Sage and Curtis are the most alike. But somehow we all fit well together like puzzle pieces to make a great picture.

  1. Hi Becky,

    I love this post! You have such a sweet family. Let me know if you are interested in a dog. The family that adopted my sister's dogs had to return them as the mom found out she had bad allergies. So there is a sweet medium sized black lab and a small terrier if you want one or both.

    Have a super week!
    Katrina
