BOOKS!

A friend at work told me that many of the Border's in Atlanta were closing. On our way back from the beloved Costco on Saturday, we saw the sign "Store Closing, Everything on Sale" on our local Border's storefront. We took an IMMEDIATE turn into the store.

WE HIT THE GOLDMINE

Chad and I had budgeted $10 a month for books this year (a hobby I live for, and one Chad is beginning to get into).

Below are the treasures we left with (we might have spent our entire year's budget, but hey, it will take us a year to read them all).

All of the Narnia Stories
All of the Jane Austen Books
A Tale of Two Cities
The Alchemist
WICKED
Eclipse :)
1776
The Millionaire Next Door
Principles Centered Leadership
Ender's Game
Ender's Shadow

I need your help - What should we read first? Have you read any of these? Do you love or hate any?

We are very excited :)

Debt FREE!!!!

Chad and I started paying off our debt (student loans, first car) the week after I started working.

I am so excited to say that today, February 16, 2011, we are DEBT FREE!!!

I feel like I should go spend some money ;) Just kidding...

quack, quaCK, quACk, QUACK!!!!

No, this is not a post about my undying love for Charlie in the Mighty Ducks, despite the fact that we was my childhood sweetheart (or so I wished).

Last week I made Duck cupcakes for a coworkers Baby Luncheon.

They do not look as good as the ones in the book, BUT I think they are still pretty cute :)
