Two Weeks Off

Today is my first day of Christmas Break! Hooray! This is when I'm so happy that I chose to be a teacher. I'm also sick with a gross cold. This is when I'm really irritated that I chose to be a teacher. It does, however, give me lots of time to read.
One of my students gave me this for Christmas. I started it on Friday and finished it yesterday. The Secret of Life of Bees is a great book. It's got a lot of "girl power" so I can see why Oprah liked it so much.
Now I'm reading The Scarlet Pimpernel, one of my all time favorite books. I love everything about it. I think I'm covered with my reading for the next couple days, but I'll still need something for next week. What have you guys read that you've absolutely loved? I'm up for just about anything... except Maus (that was just too much) or Breaking Dawn. Any suggestions? Let me know! Happy Holidays!

Moving?

No, we're not moving. We just got here. Our neighbors are moving away though... which means one of you could be MOVING in! Here are the pros:
1. Fantastic neighborhood
2. Close to the freeway (but not so close that you hear the freeway)
3. Perfectly placed between Salt Lake and Provo
4. No backyard neighbors! (Just a lot of horses)
5. Lots of little girls in the neighborhood=future babysitters nearby!
6. Only a few yards away from me!

Here are the cons:
1. You have to buy a house

That's it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like the pros outweigh the cons!

Seriously, it would be awesome to have some friends or family in our hood. Hope you are all being safe this holiday season. With the recent events, I don't think Josh and I will ever have lights on our house... Be careful out there!
