Silver Lining: 12 Days of Winter Break

12 Days of Winter Break



But don't sing it, okay? I didn't count syllables or anything {that's way too much work for winter break], so just read it. Okay? Okay.

12 lounging around days

11 mini bell peppers for lunch each day

10 rounds of cards I played with Emma each day. I won't disclose how many of those rounds I lost...

9 or more blissful hours of sleep each night

8 chocolate oranges {they have mint ones now too! Talk about delicious}

7 (ish) amazing days spent with Sam. We like to stay up late and toss big words around.

6 panic attacks from intense moments in Donkey Kong Country Returns

5 novels I devoured. Three cheers for binge reading.

4 bruises from playing launch! and other cool games with the cousins

3 times an hour I missed home in Oregon

2 days we were snowed in! Being unable to leave the house was so much fun.

1 amazing family.

  2. And now, back to the old grind. Good thing we have life to remind us how wonderful the breaks are!

    Have a great semester!

  3. Did you really eat 11 mini bell peppers every day? Just contemplating that many vegetables at once makes me lose my appetite!
