We interrupt your scheduled posting of our story to bring you a little fun! :)

Tara from Between you & me (one of my favorite bloggers, she lives in Atlanta now which means we will meet one day) “tagged” me in a little post so I have to follow the rules and tag 5 other people.  Here we go…

{the rules}
1. post the rules
2.post 11 fun facts about yourself
3. answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and then create 11 new questions for the people you tag
4. tag 11 people and link them in your post
5. let them know you’ve “tagged” them

    thanks for playing along…I don’t do those kind of posts often…but I just couldn’t resist sharing a little of myself that most people in bloggy world don’t know. Glad you did, too!

    you should REALLY sing.

    I always say that God knew better than to give me a voice because I wouldn’t shut up. :)

    Who knows? Maybe God will bring you out of your shell, and we will enjoy a vlog of you singing for us! ;)

    That is so neat that you can sing! I have always wished I could sing. Too bad you have stage fright… but I totally get it! I would too! Loved learning more about you. These posts are so fun. I will have to try to do it! :)
