I'll never forget when you guys got that call before (or maybe it was during) our tour of 915 Culver Rd. You were trying so hard to be calm and collected, but were practically jumping out of your skin until we kicked you out and told you to go home and get ready for your boy! I can't believe it's been eight years already -- make sure you let us know when his baptism is!
love tony curtis!
