She lived in one of the Pratt Mansions...it's a convent and I can't even tell you how gorgeous the inside is!

Even as a kid I loved me a big old house. :-)Laura @ the shorehouse.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15442672928319257413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-81898210057873272152012-02-28T22:59:58.161-05:002012-02-28T22:59:58.161-05:00Wow!
