I must give credit to my Little Sis' roommate Lindsey. While I was visiting them in India, Lindsey did a blog about Simple Joys. It was such a great idea that I just had to steal it.
I realize I still have not blogged about India...but will SOON. However, I am not at my laptop with all the pictures, so that post will have to wait for another time.
