Tag

It seems that someone invented a geeked out version of freeze tag for bloggers. My missionary friends Nathan and Amber ”tagged” me. I know this is a little silly, but what the heck. These are the rules:

Each player starts with eight random facts or habits about him or herself.
People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
At the beginning of your blog, mention the person who tagged you. At the end of your post, choose eight people to tag, listing their names.

Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.
Okay… Eight random things about me…

1. When I was 8 years old I lived on a small island in Georgia. One day I was riding my scooter and stumbled upon a KKK rally in the street.
2. Everyday, I carry in my pocket a paint chip of my favorite color, Kilz Dandelion Green.
3. In college, I had custody of my 16 year old sister. I took her to school in the mornings and Christa picked her up in the afternoons.
4. As a freshman in high school, I was cut from the soccer team, only to start the next three years. As a senior I became the leading scorer in the district and onced scored 2 goals in overtime to take our school to the state playoffs for the first time ever.
5. I traveled to Banda Aceh, Indonesia, days after the Tsunami struck the region and stood on the very beach it first destroyed there.
6. At my wedding there were 230 people, of which only 36 were from my family including my groomsmen.
7. I eat only one brand of ice cream, Blue Bell.
8. A random group of people saved my life and the lives of two of my friends when I was 13 years old. We were stuck out on a sandbar at the mouth of a river with a rising tide. Knowing of this natural trap, the group came out on jet skis and brought us back to shore minutes before the riptide was to rise above our heads and suck us out to sea.

I tag: The Rhodes Family, Christie Dillard, The Moores
