You're missing semi-colons at the end of several of your style declarations. Make sure you end each line with a semi-colon.

Hi Evan,

The issue may be related to the semi-colons that are missing on the end of lots of the lines. Try adding those, and see if they help.

Thanks much! It's really easy to miss some of those semicolons
