You were one busy bear last year! Hope 2014 proves to be just as fun as 2013. Canada has no penny, heh? What did you do with all the penny's you had?
ReplyDeleteI was super busy last year and had great fun!
DeletePennies... yes... everything gets rounded up to the nearest nickel... don't see too many pennies anymore. We brought the pennies to the bank and got "real money" for them. Not sure what to do with the saying "A penny for your thoughts"...
You had another great year of adventures Sandy! We enjoyed following them!
ReplyDeleteThanks guys!!
