Pardon Our Dust

I know I said I was going to try to get caught up before the move, but that didn't happen (as you might have already guessed). Now we're back in the USA and in full unpacking mode. If you have tried to contact me and gotten no answer, it's because I'm way behind. I will update the blog again someday, I promise. But it'll be awhile. In the mean time, have a Merry Christmas!

What We're Reading

Zack is on deployment and mostly devotes his reading time to reading the news.

Anne: Recently Finished: Mockingjay I actually just read the whole Hunger Games series actually. I found it very difficult to put down. It reads quick, the characters are strong and interesting, and there's never a dull moment.
Currently Reading: Ratios The author calls this an anti-cook book at one point, meaning that it helps free cooks from the necessity of always having a recipe. It discusses how ratios make up all cooking in one way or another. It's a slower read, since it gets a bit into the technical stuff of cooking, but very interesting to consider.

Ela's current favorites: Sweet Pickles Shes discovered Zack's old collection and she loves any book about animals.

Princess Charity's Courageous Heart I was at the Christian Bookstore picking up my Bible study book, and she said she wanted a book. It's hard to argue with a child who's begging for a book, especially when one has a 40% off coupon, so this was the book she ended up with. It's actually very cute, with a good message.

The Berenstain Bears We have the whole collection from when Zack was little, and she loves them, though I'm not sure she really follows the finer points of the plot.

Lily's current favorite: Baby Faces Lily's into board books and babies, so there you go.
