Christmas Break

     One of the best perks of working at a school is all the breaks we get! My Christmas Break has been SO fun and relaxing. Very, very much needed this year!! I normally drive immediately to my parents' house but this year, I stayed at my place a couple of days to get some quality "Me" time lol. I got to hang out with my friend Meghan. We had quite an interesting craft night and watched the movie Elf. It was fun to do something different and let our creative energy flow!

     We had a fun Christmas! My brother and his wife came over for breakfast---quiche, banana bread, and fruit salad---yum yum :) Then we exchanged gifts, which is always fun! Over the weekend, my mom and I went post-Christmas shopping. I was on the hunt for some sweet smelling perfume and a new curling iron. I scored both! Then, I went to see the Unbroken with my brother and sister-in-law. It was an amazing story and I want to read the book now. While I was at home I was determined to finish cutting out the pieces to my next quilt-a butterfly quilt. It was a chore! I bet I spent 8 hours total of measuring and cutting. But now I am ready to sew it all together! Oh, and I also got to meet my friend Merrill for lunch and shop a little afterwards. It was so much fun to catch up with her! Overall, it was a very fun, relaxing week!
