Concluding the break


FINALLY I will upload some photos from the challenge! Here are Days 1, 2, and 3 which are also the last few days of my glorious winter break. (Oh the perks of being a teacher!)


Day 1-January 1st: Happy New Year! Here is some leftover New Year's paraphernalia on our fireplace. Being the gracious host that I am, I felt it was necessary to purchase a box-o-New Year's-crap at Party America. I also bought a giant New Year's Balloon that is still tied to the front porch. Overall, another excellent party at the McGuire/Staebell house hold.


Day 2-January 2nd: My fabulous hair stylist, Katherine decided that I needed to brighten up my color with a dark chocolaty all over color in addition to my highlights. It looks pretty snazzy. I've referred like 4 people to Katherine! It's so funny when a bunch of my friends and family have just come in recently because then she has all kinds of things to ask me about. I never really have anything new to share with her, she already knows!

Day 3-January 3rd: Tyler had to work all day today; a SUNDAY! Darn year end stuff when you're an accountant. I thought it would be good to make him a nice meal. I whipped up some of Rachel Ray's "Big Beef and Garlic Italian Stir Fry." DE-LICIOUS! You can make some too if you have her book, Book of 10. It's very strangely organized but has TONS of tasty sounding recipes. You'll find throughout the year that I LOVE to cook and bake, especially for other people! I don't cook much if it's just for me. Often I will just have a bowl of cereal or cheese and crackers for a meal (as I did for lunch today).

Well, Back to work tomorrow! =( I hope the kiddos didn't forget too much over break!
