It has its moments, but I wouldn't make too much of an effort to watch it. Taming of the Shrew was magnificent though.

Nice to hear from you! anonymous January 26 2007, 00:31:14 UTC

Jerad, glad to hear what you are up to and especially that you really seem to enjoy what you are doing. Jen and I always check Kell's blog and really love hearing what you two are doing. The pictures are a real treat. Jen is knee deep in babies but is coping well. I'll send more pictures soon. Happy Anniversary to you both!! Linda

ps Kell Jen will love your gift!
