We asked for two breasts, so they just gave us the two pieces, instead of the usual three. They were huge! - Amy222014.7 #5721 2-13-11 10:21PMLike Reply
Oops...somehow I unintentionally re-posted that and bumped it. It was from yesterday. My husband is a singer, so this was really cool for him. They saw his HBD button and called him up! - Amy222014.7 #5721 2-14-11 5:18AMLike Reply
I can't seem to get my photos to post from my iPhone. I'm using the Post button on the top right. I write the post, select the Land, hit submit, and the post doesn't show up. :( Any suggestions?
Maybe log out, shut the app down including in the task bar, reopen and log in. It's worth a shot. - Tom3849.8 #7 2-13-11 9:02AMLike Reply
