Hi! Glad you liked the meme! I love reading them, it just tells so much about the person answering the questions. I want to see your kitchen!!!!! It sounds wonderful and sooooo creative! I have one five foot giraffe in the play room for the kids, they love it. I'll try to find the pic of it. Have you been to the restaurant Rain Forest Cafe? It's all jungle!!

I love it when my husband is out of the house, in the morning. I can just tidy up our bedroom and it stays that way during the day.
