Currently: Spring Has Sprung!

Current Book

A trifecta of books! 
Little Women {#1} and The Red Tent {#7} were in my oldest 10 on Goodreads
The Measure I'm reading for my in-person book club - it was my turn to pick!

Current Song

Just a Cloud Away - Pharrell Williams
This is both a jazzercise and yoga song, love it!

Current TV Show

Brent and I just finished season 1 and both loved it!

Current Podcast/Audiobook

This is very creepy and good if you like true crime podcasts.
Bonus {maybe?} that it's set in Texas!

Current Drink

I've been having a calorie-free, nonalcoholic love affair with this!
It's great for making a low-cal Moscow mule.

Current Food

I am having a love affair with hominy and parmesan green beans, ha.
They are green and yellow category foods in Noom and I can't get enough!
I owe y'all an update on Noom soon - 5 weeks in and going well.

Current Shame-Inducing Pleasure

Probably the amount of time I spend {and enjoy!} in my Noom app.
The other day Brent asked me if I had anything else to talk about ha.
I don't find it cumbersome to use and it's fun to track all the things.
This fits my accountant/math/nerd side perfectly.

Current Outfit

I did GRIT and Body Balance {yoga} this morning.

Current Celebrity Crush

Y'all know I'm slow to get to everything, but I'm really excited to watch this.
I've always thought Sam Claflin was so cute, curious to see him as Billy!

Current Mood

I love my kids, but I have had almost zero friend time in the last few weeks,
and I'm feeling a bit burned out.
Luckily, I have 3 events in the next week where I will be around adults, yay!
A CAbi clothing party, book club, and a Broadway musical.
Bring it on!!!!

Current Anticipation

I'm going to get the kids in the bluebonnets this week for a picture!

The bluebonnets were so amazing in 2020, 
and this year is giving 2020 a run for its money!

Current Wishlist

I've been debating Easter dresses and need to get something purchased soon!
Our church isn't super fancy, but I like to get something new for some reason.
The girls won't be wearing Eleanor Rose dresses this year, and I'm so bummed.
Drew was 0% willing to do it, ha. But they'll still be cute!

Current Movie

A co-worker and I are going to go see this next month!

Current Picture

Somebody didn't slumber at her slumber party! {grin}

Movies with Drew

Over winter break, Drew and I watched Wednesday together. We had such a fun time together that I've started putting a list together of movies and shows we should watch together. Brent's been doing this for years with Trent and even some family classics with the big kids {The Sandlot, The Great Outdoors...stuff like that}, but there are a lot I want to watch with Drew - and eventually Paige!

So far we've watched 4 movies together {not counting all the Harry Potter films}:

Girls Just Want to Have Fun - I don't think she was quite sure about this when we started it, but by the end she was dancing and jumping around like crazy! This is what Allison {my movie date} and I used to watch QUITE OFTEN on our elementary school sleepovers. Very much a classic!


Pride & Prejudice
 - one of my all-time favorite movies - she enjoyed it but I had to pause it quite often to explain what was going on, ha.


Troop Beverly Hills - we watched it with her best friend when we were selling Girl Scout cookies! Patty and I watched this ALLLL the time as kids.


Little Women - Paige even got in on some of this one, and it was another winner! I'm reading the book right now and think she'd like that too - especially as we're still making our way through the Little House series.


Here's what I have on my list for more to watch together! What am I missing??
