Coloring Books and Pencil Sharpeners

So my friend bought herself a coloring book and decided to color while she was at my house. So of course I got jealous and had to go buy my own. I was very lucky to find a Handy Manny coloring book that is totally awesome. Today I colored a picture of some pliers named squeeze! Katie and I also had to go on a pencil sharpener quest as well in order to find a quality sharpener. Just a word of warning, the cheap ones really are not what I would define as quality. Once I got through half of my pencil and it still was not sharp I decided that it just did not qualify. So we ventured the whole 3 min. drive to the local staples to continue our search. I ended up buying one of the crank ones that suction to a table. It reminds me of those wonderful days sharpening my money pencils in elementary school. Anyways the pencil sharpener did not prove itself right away, but it works now after some good breaking in. Now I have pencils sharp enough to cause some serious damage. Sorry this is kind of a random post, but I guess its just a random day!!!

Spring Break Update!

So I have been enjoying the last week so much considering it is the wonderful time of the year for students called spring break. A whole week free from classes and in my case lots of kids! (I still love kids, this comment just refers to how nice a break is sometimes). No worries Chelley and Josh my nephew's and niece do not count! I probably won't make it home to visit family this week though. Monday we had a huge storm, it snowed for 24 hours and dumped about 1 1/2 feet of snow on us. Needless to say my roommate and I left only to venture to the store for ingredients for her yummy ham cauliflower soup! So most of Monday and Tuesday consisted of watching movies, and reading. I strongly recommend The Secret Life of Bee's it is sad but excellent! We have also started watching the Lord of the Rings Trilogy again! Today will probably be spent reading the fourth Harry Potter and watching more movies! I needed some time to relax before school starts again. Tomorrow and Saturday will not be as relaxing, but they will be exciting. I am going to Provo with two of my favorite work buddies Camille and Brionne! We are going to the Utah Early Childhood Conference on Saturday, but we will be taking off tomorrow for some Friday night fun.
