better late than never

I was reading my cousin-in-law, Gretchen's, blog yesterday and loved her yearly New Year interview tradition.  I know it's a little late (as in, 2-months-into-the-new-year, we've-already-got-our-taxes-done, it's-practically-spring sort of late), but I couldn't resist the temptation to steal the tradition and I didn't want to have to wait for next year.  I figure better late than never, right?  I wanted to record exactly what they said, so if there's lots of ummms, and hmmms, now you know why.  I love how the exactness gives a little peek into their head and lives.  Anyway, without further ado, here are the Lifferth Chillun Questions & Answers for 2013...

Oh my gosh! I'm pretty sure that was my favorite thing ever! Your kids are just...themselves! They are so funny. I miss thems soooo much, but I'm really glad that you posted this! It made me laugh so hard. (P.S. milk lemonade really is the best!)

I loved this so much I wrote down all the questions and did it with my kids. What a great idea! And your kids are hilarious.

Ah! They are so funny! I didn't even need to know who you were interviewing before. Their personalities are so very unique. Can't wait for Oak to join in.

It's funny...I was just thinking of doing something similar to this for me and Jesse on our anniversaries. :)
