Oh, wow, I've been tagged by two of my wonderful blogging buddies, Naomi and ShortOne!!! OK, bear with me as I'm not too sure what I'm doing here!! Where is Abby when I need her?
So, I guess I have to post 6 random things about myself, huh? Alright...here goes!
1. I used to eat potato chip sandwiches when I was a kid. I know, what was my mom thinking?? They were so good and crunchy, though. Just take some potato chips and throw them between two slices of bread. I haven't done that in years, I promise!!
2. I was named homecoming queen at my high school when I was only 15 years old. I was the youngest homecoming queen up to that point.
3. I hold a Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the Univ. of Tennessee-Knoxville. I worked in the public schools as a speech therapist for 4 years, but then became a stay-at-home mom to my daughters 16 1/2 years ago. Would you believe I had to work out of a broom closet at one of my schools?
4. I am terrified of roller coasters!! My husband and daughters talked me into going on one at Universal Studios in Florida by myself and I thought I was going to die, literally! I held my eyes tightly shut the entire time and it was the worst experience I've ever had!
5. When my water broke with my daughter, Brittany, Chris and I were laying in bed watching TV. All of a sudden, we heard a very loud popping noise like a cork shooting out of a champagne bottle. Chris looked at me and asked, "What was that?" I soon realized what had just happened!!
6. Shortly after my husband and I became engaged, he had to go away for 2 weeks with the Army National Guard and left me his apartment key. So, I went over there one afternoon and looked through some of his things. I found several photos of his old girlfriend and I cut them up with a pair of scissors. I know, it's horrible, isn't it? I'm very ashamed! :) It took me awhile to own up to my dirty deed .
Now, if you're tagged, here's what you do:
1. Post the rules on your blog
2. Write 6 random things about yourself
3. Tag 6 people
4. Please pass it on for fun...

Hello, I'm April
Welcome to my blog! I'm, originally, from Arkansas (Go Hogs!) and my husband is from South Carolina. We met on a blind date in December of 1988 and were married 10 mos. later. Crazy, I know! We have two beautiful daughters, who make life fun, exciting, and challenging! I look at every day as an adventure and an opportunity to laugh and to learn. You will soon discover that my family and my faith are at the heart of who I am. Stick around a while, won't you?

Oh girl, we need to talk! DK was in the Navy when we got married. Our wedding was on a Saturday and he shipped out to sea for 3 months on Monday! Anyway, for 3 months I had to deal with phone calls from girls calling and asking for him. I remember one girl in particular who was really snotty and asked who in the world I was. When I responded his wife there was a long pause and then a click. Needless to say she never called back! :)
Youngest homecoming queen? Way to go; that's BIG!
I love reading this info...my husband eats potatoe chip sandwiches and now my son does!
Have a great weekend!
Thank you for all your sweet comments on my blog this week!

P.S. JK pulled the winning slip of paper for my giveaway earlier today. I'm so sorry to say it wasn't your name! :( BUT I am very happy to say the winner was someone who is going through a very difficult time (her father is dying) and can really use a pick me up.
Enjoy your weekend!!!!
I am still laughing out loud about your water breaking and sounding like a cork shooting out of a champagne bottle! Totally LOL!!! Sorry girl!
I am TERRIFIED of roller coasters too! I haven't been on one since my senior year in high school almost 20 years ago!!
As for taking the scissors to the ex-girlfriend's photos...I so would have done the same thing!
OKAY....now that I've been tagged, I'll post my random weirdness after dinner tonight.
Take care and have a fantastic weekend!
I loved potato chip sandwich when I was little too, my favorite was BBQ yummy! Cute blog my favorite colors!
Before my husband and I got married I was being nosy and went through his stuff. I found all the pictures of his ex-wife. I didn't do anything to them. Several years later at his father's funeral she came and called us later and wanted some of them sent to her. There were a lot of wedding photos. I sent her some and kept some. My husband obviously loved her enough to marry her so he is entitled to his memories. Funny thing is, I get more jealous over his ex-girlfriends than the ex-wife. Weird!
Hey there. I've been so out of touch for awhile, but I did just now read every single post of yours I had missed. I love your stories!!
Glad things worked out with the girls and the happy couple. I totally know how you feel on the boyfriend tagging along all the time. Mine does the same thing.
I hope your hubby is feeling better!! Oh, and thanks for the tag. I was tagged before I left for my trip too, so I will have to be sure and get that done soon.
