Just so you know I don't have any of your artwork yet hanging in our home.<br /><br />My favorite hiding place was at my grandparents house in Southern West Virgina. When my grandfather quit raising chickens my cousins & I used the old chicken coop as our secret clubhouse. Then there was also a closet in a hallway that we told all the younger cousins that they would not be able to come out if they ever went in there so you can guess that we hid there a lot.Deanna Bosselmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29356284.post-31897468869386036282010-02-14T17:31:42.491-06:002010-02-14T17:31:42.491-06:00Happy birthday Nicole!
