My Break is Over

On Monday I must re-enter the working world. My three week Christmas break is over. So sad... But the last two days have been wonderful! On Friday, neighbor and friend, Leah and I went out for breakfast at Sophie's Kitchen in Grand Ledge. (Great breakfast place.) As we were sitting there talking, I asked her if she liked to do "crafty" things, like paint-your-own-pottery. So on the spur of the moment, we decided that we'd go. This is what I made!



It's a lot of fun and a pretty cheap afternoon of fun. Then Joel took me out to dinner and we bought some new movies to watch. Whenever we walk into Blockbuster, I always know that we are never going to rent movies. Joel always ends up buying the 3 for $25 previewed movies. We came home with StarWars III, Vanity Fair, and Batman Begins. We watch Batman Begins last night -- and I actually enjoyed it and stayed awake for the whole thing! That's a big feat for me!

Today, I woke up somewhat early due to my sniffles. But I decided to relax and went downstairs and watched Vanity Fair while cutting out patterns of cowboy hats for RivKids. Then Joel and I spent the rest of the day lounging, watching TV, taking naps and just enjoying a gray Saturday. It was a great way to end the break.

Because I've been so bad a blogging,I'm finally getting to posting pictures of my cute niece Olivia who we visited in Texas over Christmas!
