Little Women

Lately I have been reading Little Women. It is a good book and actually makes it feel more wintry here, even though I take it to the beach to read. I like to compare the girls in the book to my sisters and me. I know Louisa would be Jo because she loves to write and be creative and do things spontaneously. Kim would be Beth because she loves music and is (or used to be) quiet, sweet, and helpful :). I would probably be Amy because I was always worried about my nose, clothes, and looks and used to being a little spoiled. That leaves Anna as Meg since she is the oldest sister. Of course our mom is as wonderful as "Marmee." I'm about halfway through the book. I watched the movie a long time ago but have forgotten what happens.

Happy Birthday!

Today is Rob's 29th birthday. What did he decide to do to celebrate? Homework. Like usual. After we eat his favorite meal (beef stroganoff) he'll open presents and eat the Snickers ice cream sandwiches we bought and then we'll watch a movie-our favorite way to chill and relax. We thought about going to the beach today but it was raining. Thanks everyone for the calls and cards. Here are some pictures of the birthday boy. So handsome!
