Movie Review: Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris

Apparently my blog is now mostly movie and book reviews...and I'm not mad about it, ha. It has been fun going to the movies so much this summer, but it's been a lot of kid movies. I'm excited that I was able to see an adult movie with Allison! When I saw the preview for Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris, I knew this was a must see.

Plot: A widowed cleaning lady in 1950s London falls madly in love with a couture Dior dress and decides that she must have one of her own.

Review: This was an absolute delight! I basically watched this whole movie with a smile on my face. It was a feel-good movie that also had a message, and I loved it. Brent would have been bored, but Allison and I both just loved it!

Some Summer Fun - June

I can't believe we have just about 1 more month of summer! We've had a really good time so far, and I wanted to share some of our adventures.

We started the summer with Brent and me getting Covid - that wasn't fun, ha. Then we had a great time in Houston with a work dinner for Brent's company.

Brent's company also does a family event at our local AAA baseball park. It was 80s themed and the kids humored me by posing with some of the props!




The kids get to play in a batting simulation and there is a photo booth which the girls monopolize - they have so much fun!

Birthday party fun with friends from school!

Shopping trip with my littlest love!

Posing with her favorite fruit {grin}

Happy 71st birthday, Babs!

We finished Harry Potter!

Isn't she too young to be losing all these teeth?

I love this stage of not having to get in the pool if I don't want.
And I love having a neighbor who lets my kids swim!

Making a birthday sign for Bubba!

Hello, Teenager!

Speaking of our teenager, he had such a 'teenager' birthday. He spent the night with Brent's parents and wanted to eat fast food and watch YouTube/play on his iPad all day...so that's what he did! Last week, Brent took him and 2 friends to Kalahari {a local, indoor water park}, and I have zero pictures to document, sob!

So that's been our June of Summer Break 2022. I can't believe the year is half over and so is our summer!
