We Play hard...and work a Little I Guess

Now that it's summer and we have a few weeks to truly relax form stressful teaching obligations (I.E. Grading papers/lesson plans), we've been able to get in some hobbies.  (Probably me more than Jordan because he still has to work his full time job).  

I'm working for my parents the next couple weeks, but I come and go as I please which is really nice!  I've also made some homemade Reese's peanut butter cups, cake pops, and pretzels! I love being crafty and trying to make new foods!  

While I slave in the kitchen, Jordan practices his thumb exercises...

Oh, I almost forgot!  I tried this new marbling nail polish technique.  It does take a bit of set up time and taping your finger all around the nail, but it looks pretty cool in the end!

You take your nail polish and drip it in the water. (I suggest NOT using the quick dry nail polishes shown here because they obviously dry quickly and don't swirl well.)

This photo of my nail is not from those colors in the cup above, this is just the picture I took from another set of colors I used.

Oh ya, one more thing that happened a week or so ago, we got me a new ring.  It wasn't expensive but I love it just the same!  I don't believe a ring has to be expensive.

Good thing my nails happened to be painted with my new nail polish!
