Hope everyone had an awesome holiday and Happy New Year!  We had a wonderful Christmas.  Let’s just say, Santa was very good to us this year!  We really enjoyed spending time with our family and this year was the first in a while, that we were all well during the holidays.  The past couple years, we were either dealing with a nasty stomach bug or runny noses and sore throats.  So having healthy kids this season, was a nice change.

The kids finally went back to school yesterday.  Surprisingly, they were actually ready to go back.  Christopher received some Thomas and Friends reading books, and he just couldn’t wait to show his teacher!

Steven is still commuting, so we haven’t moved yet.  We wanted to enjoy the holidays, so we decided to put it on hold.  He doesn’t mind driving right now, and the cheaper gas prices have helped tremendously.  We are still planning to move though.  We are just going to take our time.  We are looking for a house in a specific area, so we can get our kids in the school zoned to that area.  Also, fortuantely, we already have a buyer for our house, and they aren’t in any rush, since they either plan to rent it out or fix it up and resell it.  So we have plenty of time, and we don’t have to stress over it, which is nice.

I finished 2 books over the holidays.  Ink Exchange by Melissa Marr and The Host by Stephenie Meyer.  Both great reads, and although Ink Exchange wasn’t as good as Wicked Lovely, it held my interest.  The Host was a pleasant surprise.  I would have liked to have had more dialogue, a little too much description for my taste, but still an awesome concept, and anyone into Sci-Fi novels, should definitely check it out!  Right now, I’m reading This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen.  I’m enjoying it, but I’m missing the fantasy genre.

Next up will be, A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray.  I’ve heard excellent reviews of the book, and I can’t wait to get started on it.  Part of me, wants to just stop reading my current book, and start that one, but I hate to start something and not finish it, so I’m going to try to get through it.  I’m almost halfway done.

Ok…that’s about it for now, I promise to blog more.  That’s one of my New Year’s Resolutions.  Hopefully, I can stick with it.  Wish me luck!!
