Our month long break is officially over.
School starts back tomorrow and although this break has been absolutely amazing—I am ready to get back in routine, ready to learn more, and very excited about seeing my classmates!
This was the first time in years (probably about 6) that I've had a break this long.
I’ve always been either working/schooling or both. And for once, I literally had 4 whole weeks free. Bizarre.
I hung around Jack town for a week after classes were over and did a lot of hanging out with this lady…
Spent the next week and a half in the Queen City mainly because of this guy…
And I also enjoyed spending a lot of time with this guy…
(and these guys)
Attended several Christmas parties…
Spent 3 days doing absolutely nothing…
Spent 5 days at a Monastery in Batesville, MS to welcome 2012…
And finally, I got to spend my last week of freedom back in Jackson visiting with lots of dear friends that I don’t get to see often enough during the school year.
I had the pleasure of dining at Parlor Market 3 times during my break. Each time was supremely superb…
(the above desert tray was made by our very own, Lydia Grey Gamble. Do go visit her at Parlor Market. She makes the best sweets in town.)
I’ll sure miss these long breaks when I’m no longer a student.
That may be why I maxed out my 4 weeks…
But I’m ready to hit the books again……
I’m gearing up for my 30th birthday in a few weeks… that feels a little strange.
I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season and are keeping those resolutions you made 8 days ago…
I’m still working on my second post about all that I learned at Magnolia Grove.
And so now I’ll bid adieu to the break from responsibility…
Good-bye Freedom! See you in May!
What did you do over the holidays?
How did you spend your break?
