Maxin and Relaxin!

Today was my first day of summer! My last day of school was yesterday, and after a tiring year, I decided that I needed a major break today. I never ever just spend a day relaxing, but today was a first.


I got up at 8:30 so I could attend a Zumba class with my favorite instructor. The class was awesome, and after an hour of hopping around and dancing I was sweaty and energized. 

It was a beautiful day so I couldn't resist going for a long walk after lunch. I love love love the neighborhood that we live in right now. It is huge and I enjoy taking walks and getting lost in it. The homes are so beautiful I love to look at them and the gardens as I pass by.

In returning home from my walk I planted my self on the sofa and dove into Water for Elephants. I had been completely sucked into the story and I couldn't wait to spend my afternoon reading. I had planned on taking a nap this afternoon but I couldn't put my book down and just a little while ago I finished it. 

It was such a great read. I loved the story and how it was written. I got completely lost in it and felt like I was riding along side of Jacob on the train. Totally recommend Water for Elephants! I now must see the movie!

Day two of summer break continues tomorrow. This is my only true break this summer because I start working at camp on Monday. I plan to enjoy these next few carefree days.
