I think you make a great coach, I can definitly see you doing that, (running around yelling) you have a good strong voice. :-) I aslo wouldnt want to go to a haunted house with you, I would probably pee my pants with laughter. Funny convo, good work.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job with the blog! And you always look super cute reffing. ;)
