One word - GLEE

Yes - from the beginning I have been an avid Glee fan. I look forward to Wednesday's when I can watch the episodes on cucirca.com.
Glee music is a regular tune listened to at our house - I love to listen to it while I'm cooking/baking, running, or even just hanging out - I call it my Happy Music :)

Books

Nothing like a good book to read. Our last book that both Brody & I read was A Thousand Splendid Suns - written by Khalid Hosseini - who also wrote The Kite Runner (one of our favorites). It was a fast read; absolutely fascinating and horrible and good all at the same time. I love when books can really draw you in so that you are literally emotionally attached to the characters. Highly recommended.


Currently I am reading A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. Initially, it was difficult for me to get into it, but Dickens isn't known to be a brilliant writer for nothing - I'm hooked to say the least. Although it's a book that many may remember reading in HS, I'm sorry to say that I don't recall a thing. However, I feel that it makes it all the more griping to not know what is going to happen next. Between London and Paris..."It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness..."

Lately

Hello again. It's been about 8 months since my last blog...and to tell you the truth, I haven't really thought at all about it.
Brody and I were talking last night about how he would like to start one for discussion purposes to talk about something he is passionate about.
I am all about supporting that - but my original opinion for myself was, "if I have FB, why also try to stay on top of a blog?"
Well, I got to thinking, and now here I am.
Instead of trying to recap about everything that has been going on in our lives in the past 8 months (which you can get the jist of by all the pictures on FB) - I will just start with the recent happenings and hope that our lives here so far will reveal themselves through our current circumstances.
That's all for now :)
