Red White & Blue...

To get everyone ready for The 4th of July I decided to paint nails. I got Red, White, and Blue nail polish from Walmart to do our nails. So 4 people, 10 toes each, 10 fingers each and 2 coats of paint. I was busy but what a fun result we got.

I read, you read

A few months ago I started reading as a hobby. I look in my weekly People magazine at the book reviews. I don't go by how many stars but by what the book is about. I have found many different types of books on many different topics. The library has made it very easy for us busy or lazy people. I look up the book on line and click for it to be pulled or brought from a different library. Then they call me and I pick it up at the front desk. How great is that?! I also feel that the kids seeing me read for pleasure will encourage them to do the same. Shayla like to see how many pages are in my book and watch as the bookmark moves quickly through the pages. I am including a list of the books that I have read in case anyone else has also read them, that we can discuss them.
