Aaaawww, I love Mickey! Hahaha!! Literally tells the best stories, I've been lucky enough to hear many. : ) OMG!! "As you can see, it was a wonderful design." His sarcasm is THE best! One day, I was driving his Infiniti Q45 with Aly and we went back to his house, parked and left the sunroof open, then walked inside. Hahaha! When it was pouring out, we thought it looked so great, looking out across the backyard. Walked outside and the interior was flooded!! Holy smoke! The sarcasm didn't stop! Hahaha! He's actually a really funny guy. Love that man, so much. I miss my Blake family and think of them all the time. : ) YOO HOO!!! *If you know, you know. : )

I worked at TSV for five years, so many things I didn't know. Good history.
