The SkittlesGame/Let's Get Acquainted Linky



I am linking up with Latoya from Flying into First Grade again this week.  The theme is the skittles game.  It works like this:


Red- Favorite Ice Cream Flavor
Orange- Favorite Memory from College
Yellow- Favorite Sports Team
Green- Favorite Fast Food Place
Purple- Wild Card (Tell anything about yourself)


Here are mine...
Red- Favorite Ice Cream Flavor
My favorite ice cream flavor is coffee with chocolate espresso chips.  What can I say...I live near Seattle where drinking coffee is a requirement.  I love Ben and Jerry's Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz.  It is total yum yum yum!
 

Orange- Favorite Memory from College
My favorite memory from college was meeting and falling in love with my sweet hubby!  I met him through a Christian club on campus and we were in the same close circle of friends for a year and half before we dated.  I thank God everyday that I met him (and that he puts up with me)!


Yellow- Favorite Sports Team
My favorite sports team is the North Carolina Tarheel Basketball team--woot woot!  Before we moved to WA to help start a new church, we lived in NC for 5 years.  During that time, we became diehard Tarheel fans.  This means that we also have disgust for their rival enemy---Duke (Yuck!)  I also really like the Seahawks and the ATL Braves.

Green- Favorite Fast Food Place
My favorite fast food place is Chick-fil-a.  When we migrate south during the summer to visit family and friends, we always make a Chick-fil-a stop.  It's one of those things that you don't realize until you don't have any around. 
Purple- Wild Card (Tell anything about yourself)
My  One thing you guys probably don't know about me is that I am an only child.  I consider myself both an introvert and extrovert--it depends on the situation.  I definitely need my "alone" time.  I sometimes wish that I had a sibling.  Especially now that I am older and my parents live soooooo far away and they are getting older.  It's hard sometimes!  My sweet momma had a miscarriage when I was in the 5th grade.  It was a hard time for our family, but I remember my parents telling me that they were so blessed when they had me and that I was enough for them.  I am sooooo extremely blessed to have them!!!

Well, there you have it.  If you want to link up, click on the pic at the top of the page :)

Happy Teaching,

  1. I love coffee, but I have never had that ice cream. I think I need to try it!

    I have any only child. Hope my daughter feels the same way about me when she gets older!

  5. Kelly,
    Thanks for stopping by! It is difficult being far away from home, but knowing that we are here for a purpose helps. WA is pretty. The summers are amazing...you just have to live through the other 9 months for it. Thank heavens that we are approaching better weather. I am gonna check your blog out tonight!
