Thick as Thieves Review

I've mentioned before that Ballerina LOVES to read. As she's getting older, I'm constantly looking for quality books for her to read. It's hard to find books that are challenging enough for her reading ability but not containing content that is too old for her. I was excited for the opportunity to review Susan K. Marlow's newest book, Thick as Thieves. It's the first book in the Circle C Milestones series from Kregel Publications. This series follows the adventures of Andrea Carter as she goes through her teenage years on a cattle ranch in Fresno, California, in the 1880s.

5 Reasons to Have a Hobby

Lately I've been thinking about having a hobby (besides blogging, of course). Over the years, I've dabbled in several hobbies - cross stitching, scrapbooking, rubber stamping. Currently I'm working on a cross stitch Christmas stocking for Sassy, but I don't really think of it as a hobby - it's a necessity. The other 4 small people have Christmas stockings that I've made for them, and hers is the last one I need to make.
