25 Random Things...
Ok, so on Facebook I was tagged to write 25 random things about myself. I really didn't have time and told one of my friends that tagged me that and then I got nagged and I guess I cracked under the peer pressure! Anyway...here is what I wrote for those few people I know that don't have a Facebook account:
Some of these are things that only very few people know!
1. my favorite television show is 24 - I own every season on DVD...Jack Bauer rocks and there need to be more Americans like him
2. I love football...both college and NFL
3. My favorite teams are Alabama and Green Bay Packers in reference to #2
4. I sometimes call local sports talk radio shows as Southern Cheesehead
5. I married the only boyfriend that I ever had. Marriage is a journey and has rough spots sometimes, but thankfully my hubby believes in God's grace and forgiveness and loves me for me
6. I've never broken a bone in my body
7. I've never learned to ride a bike (mainly because I was scared of #6 changing...my mom broke her arm riding a bike and I associated that and never learned)
8. I was offered a full scholarship to Liberty University my senior year of high school for voice and turned it down because I didn't feel God was leading me there...many people believe that it's because it was 11 hours away from Ernie and my Daddy...those were considerations, but the Lord didn't want me there - period
9. I was born a red head...it turned blond by the time I started school and now it's strawberry blond along with some "enhancements" to cover the gray!
10. I have 2 older brothers
11. My oldest brother is 12 years older than me
12. I was born on a national holiday...July 4th and yes, it's my favorite holiday and my kids believe the fireworks are for my b'day
13. If you know me then you know I'm very outgoing and never meet a stranger, but I used to be shy and hide behind my mother's skirts!
14. My Grandmother lived with us most of my life
15. I never met my mom's parents because they died before I was born
16. I LOVE 80's music even though I know it was mainly cheesy and over produced and the videos were even worse
17. I've met Bret Michaels of Poison and have my picture with him
18. I got married in 1992 (that makes almost 17 years...Glory to God!)
19. I'm still good friends with all 7 of my bridesmaids and had some part in almost all of their weddings too
20. We're praying about and considering adopting a child from Mexico
21. I'm about the only person in America that doesn't think Andy Griffith Show is funny and don't like watching it
22. Two of my friends I have been close friends with for over 30 years
23. I went to a Packer game in December at Lambeau Field when it was 6 degrees and LOVED it!
24. I'm a big fan of Brett Favre and have seen him play live 5 times at 3 different fields
25. My children are the greatest and most challenging all at the same time. It truly is the hardest task I've ever undertaken but I wouldn't trade it for anything in this world.
