Hey Emily,

I absolutly love your show Bones. I also love you!!! Its the best Show ever. I have been watching the show from the beginning and will be watching it until the end. I can't wait for season 4!!! I can't believe Zach was working with Gormogon. I was shocked, my mouth was open for ten minutes. Alot of people were talking about it, the day after.

I have seen or have about half of your movies and shows. That or I own them. They are the best movies ever. Most of them are on my ipod.

Hopefully you will be in alot more movies and tv shows. I will definetly be looking out for it!!! I really hope to meet you one day. That would be really great!

Best Wishes,
xoxo Courtney
