My Tagged Response (THE COACH)

10 years ago:
I was a Senior at Sam Houston High School in Arlington TX. (We roll hard in the HOOD!)
I was working at County Seat, thats right I was cool enough to work in The Parks Mall at a major retail clothing store. (Have any of you seen or heard of County Seat in the last 10 years?)
I was getting ready to head to Hardin-Simmons as a Freshmen. Go Cowboys!
I was dating no one, yeah I'm a loser. But I got alot cooler in college and had lots of dates. More than enough to make out my HS drought.

Things on my to do list:
1.) Grade Papers.
2.) Prepare Lesson Plans.
3.) Change poopy diaper.
4.) Finish my Interview Playbook.
5.) Tell Natalie where we are moving. Sad that even I don't know yet huh.
6.) Buy Natalie roses for moving yet again with me.

What would I do If I suddenly became a Billionaire.
1.) Wake up, because obviously I just passed out from the surprise of knowing that I could now say all the things I've really wanted to say to HS students.
2.) Ask Natalie what we are going to do with a Billion dollars. (Lets face it we all really knows who controls this decision.)
3.) Ask Nat for a loan for lunch. Sonic anyone?
4.) Buy Natalie whatever she wanted regardless of how selfish/cheap/silly it may be.
5.) Take care of my family for the first time in my life. That is Mom/Jack, Amy/Bryan/Camryn/Kynna, Dad, Phil/Debby, Jeff/Ami/Kiran/Ellery, Chad and Chisti, no its not misspelled ask Addie, Cody/Ashley/Rylan.
6.) Hire myself as the AD/Head Coach for the New Private School I'm about to build that I also happened to be Principal of. Money can buy you happiness.
7.) Take a long vacation with just the family, Take another long vacation with just Natalie, take another long vacation with just me. :)

Three of my bad habits.
1.) Not washing my hands after I_________. Fill in the blank, it could be anything: washing my hands, playing with Addie, Talking, you get the idea.

2.) Trying to be the Alpha Male in a house that is obviously ruled by estrogen and my wife/daughter/puppy.

3.) Not relying in Christ's abundant strength, and trying to rely on my own.

5 Things people don't know about me.

1.) I love to Ski/Ride Horses.
2.) I really enjoy literature Shakespeare, C.S. Lewis, etc and discussion about both.
3.) I can pop my right shoulder out of socket whenever I want. Pretty cool huh.
4.) I have had 5 Plastic/Reconstructive surgeries on my face.
5.) I don't always brush my teeth right before bed. Take that Nat!! I'm not ashamed.....

I LOVED County Seat! Your a brave one Natalie for handling the teeth brushing thing (my husband has been known to do the same)

Good luck with the move you guys! Glad to see things are going well.

I just want you to know that we used frequent The Parks Mall when we visited my aunt. Thanks for bringing back the words County Seat! Maybe we met before Baylor?!?
