Share your pictures!

June 15, 2021 By Tamera Alexander

It's been a while since we've played this— Describe the last three photos on your cell phone(it could be a photo you've taken or maybe a screenshot, whatever, just the last three) And no, I didn't go look at my last three pics before deciding to do this.
