I go back to school tomorrow and had a wonderful break! My favorite memory involved my sister and I doing a last minute Old Navy run (she needed a pair of jeans), and we ended up getting all the grown-ups coordinating outfits for present opening :) On December 23rd, pretty much all that is left at Old Navy is the picked-over, clearance "holiday" apparel. Needless to say, we had lots of laughs and have great pictures! My sister and her husband wore the 'regifter' t-shirts. My parents wore 'eggnog' t-shirts. My husband and I were 'PEACE.' I think we got a good deal- the t-shirts were all $3.27 :)
I'm super excited for 2014! I loved 2013. I was able to travel to Mexico and the Caribbean, as well as lots of new places in the United States. I already have some great travel booked for 2014...Las Vegas, Cayman Islands, and a Disney Cruise. I'm also hoping that 2014 will be the year I complete my doctorate! That would be wonderful!!
My big "healthy" resolution is to run 500 miles in 2014...we shall see...
Winter break definitely goes too fast! I have my fingers crossed for a snow day for you. This is way too early to be going back to work!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the rest of your break!!!
DeleteFound your blog through Farley's Currently. We have the same goal for the year-to run #500in2014!! I knocked out a 5k today, and it felt great. Of course, now I'm being a serious couch potato!!!
ReplyDeleteHere's to 2014!!

I always have a list a mile long over break...I think it is because once school is in session, then my house suffers!
DeleteWow! Good luck at completing your doctorate! I hope you have a snow day tomorrow too! Luckily I don't have to go back until Monday.

Thank you Katie!
DeleteChristmas break is definitely too short and goes by too fast! We were supposed to go back today, but got snowed out! I've been to the Cayman Islands. Loved it- so beautiful there!
