I have received several tags over the past few weeks and haven’t gotten to most of them yet. I was partly really busy trying to get family things in order (i.e. clean my house) and trying to set up my stupid scanner to my new computer. I can’t get it done. I wanted to add some cute pictures from my childhood up, but it ins’t working. Maybe it is the cosmos telling me to keep that part of my history under wraps! Anyway, here is one that doesn’t really need pictures.
1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? No, my parents were sure that I was going to be a boy so, they only had boy names picked out. My mom liked Mr. Darcy from Pride and Predjudice. So, I am named after Mr. Darcy. Hot, Dreamy, Mr. Darcy.

I was very close to my grandma too. I wish I had a voice mail from her. I do have a hanky of hers tucked away in one of my dresser drawers. Every now and then I smell it just to remind me of my grandma. =)
Hey thanks for playing tag…onion dip and jelly bellies, love them too.
Hi, I am a friend of Alisa Mercers and she was showing me the green croched hat (with the button) that you made. I was curious if you have the pattern for it? I would love to have it if you are willing to share. You can e-mail me at thehayes05@yahoo.com Thanks!!! Cute kids!
