I heart Vacations!

By -
I'm back! Vacation is so good. 10.5 days away from work is bliss!

I had a great time in Duluth with T. We spent a whirlwind day of Visiting the Zoo, Aquarium, Glensheen Mansion and walking around Canal Park and the Pier. This was our first road trip and we not only had a good time, we realized that we can have fun doing just about anything! We are taking a road trip this summer, visiting dear friends in Michigan and then off to the East to visit all the New England states!
As a group of wise Sisters once said, I'M SO EXCITED, AND I JUST CAN'T HIDE IT!!!


My time in Florida was great. I loved the beaches of Fort Myers and Sanibel Island. I also went to 3 MN Twins Baseball games! I love my Twinkies! And to top it all of I got pretty tan! It's so nice to feel the sunshine on my face, the ocean at my feet and my beloved Twins out on the field!

I love vacations, too. It's always a little hard coming back to work, but it's always worth it.

So now with Christmas almost upon us, I wanted to take the last few days to make some Christmas Crafts.

Not only is it a fantastic blog with fun projects, it's also an online store full of the coolest scrapbook\crafting supplies. If you haven't been to Hambly Screen Prints...  GO NOW !

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
