At Relief Society last night the theme was "My Favorite Things". They gave us a questionaire to fill out although I could have filled out 20 of them. Wayne always says "you sure love lots of things"and it's true. I don't remember all the questions, but I will try to remember most of them. Maybe those who know me won't be surprised but then again, maybe they will.
