HAPPY BIRTHDAY KELLY!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Patti!
So are you saying you're an Aretha fan? I've always liked Petula, and I preferred Dionne to Aretha. Although she can belt it! You can't help but smile when you hear most of these songs!
Happy Birthday Kelly. To celebrate, I'm taking Karen to Casa Loma for "Christmas at the Castle" - a CH fundraising event, building a home just outside Asala, Ethiopia, for kids living with and/or orphaned by AIDS.
How's that? Birthday wishes and a promo, all in one.
Best wishes for you Kelly...
Those songs brought up images of grade ten and the school hop.
My youth... shudder. Images best left alone. :)
