Those are my 8s.  I tag anyone that wants to play along.  Here are the rules:

1. Mention the name of the person who tagged you
2. Do the lists of 8

4. Let them know they’ve been tagged.

Fun Tag

I've been tagged by Susie from "Digging in the Dirt".  I always like to see what photo will turn up when I do these tags.

The rules are: open a document or file folder (I went to my Pictures folder), click on the fifth folder and then the fifth photo. Post the photo and describe it. Then tag 5 other bloggers. So here's the picture........

This picture means a LOT to me.  On the far right, is my sweet momma.  The other two are her sisters; Rosemary (middle) and Karen (left).  The photo was taken in August before my Aunt Rosemary passed away in October.  I’ll never forget that day.  I had taken my mom so I could visit with my aunt (and her daughter, Allison, who was in from Texas) because I knew my aunt wouldn’t be with us much longer.  She made such an impression on me in the way she faced death.  She was an amazing woman.  (I come from good stock!!)

I'm passing this tag onto the following bloggers:

My sweet girl, Kayla

Kayla's "Cupcake" friend – Kyla
