Watching: The Americans. If someone just gave me a brief summary of this show I would have never thought I would have watched it much less love it! However, this show following Russian spies in America is one of my favorite shows. It keeps you guessing and unsure of who to root for at times!
Better Call Saul. My favorite show of all time is Breaking Bad so naturally when Saul Goodman landed a spinoff show I was sold. Honestly, I am a little underwhelmed but I can't help but watch due to my loyalty to Breaking Bad. There is just way too much time in between seasons and some scenes tend to drag. Nonetheless I intend to watch every episode haha.
Listening to: "Reckless Love" by Bethel. This song is on repeat every. single. day.
Reading: Chase the Lion by Mark Patterson. A friend of my husbands sent him this book a few months ago and I decided to read it and I have been really enjoying it. In this book Batterson, the pastor of National Community Church in Washington D.C., encourages the reader about chasing down your dreams.
Eating: Pineapples. All day everyday.
Thinking about: Summer!!! My favorite season of all and it pretty much already feels like summer here in the panhandle. I can not wait for lazy mornings and more time with Brooklynne. Hopefully, we will have more beach days this year since the twins are older now.
Watching: Parenthood, I just love this show! I have never related to a television show or movie the way I do with Parenthood. I celebrate with them, cry with them (a lot), get angry with them (SARAH BRAVERMAN). I think that is the beautiful thing about this show, at some point you find yourself relating to these fictional characters. Also, I have been watching The Biggest Loser. I love Jillian Micheals and I admire each contestant making strides to improve their health.
Listening to: Any Bethel Worship music I can get my hands on. For Christmas Jared got me the "For the Sake of the World" cd and I listen to it or watch the accompanying dvd constantly. If you are not familiar with Bethel I am including a link to one of their songs.
Reading:The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. I haven't gotten very far into this book but I loving it so far. The book is told from the perspective of Hazel who is a smart, funny young woman who has cancer and falls for a boy that she meets a support group. One of my goals is to read more this year, at least two books a month. After I finish this one I think I am going to revisit an old favorite.
Thinking about: Encouraging others. I came across this blog recently and I have been checking back daily because I am so inspired by this woman! Jess has an adorable toddler and she is an extremely talented crocheter. However, I am most intrigued by her heart. She writes a lot about the random acts of kindness and gifts that she spends her time doing. It is so easy for me to get "so busy" that I forget to be an encouragement to the people around me. So often I allow myself to think "Well, what can I do?" and sometimes most of the time it is the smallest things that make the biggest difference.
This post was inspired by Dani over at Sometimes Sweet, if you are not familiar with her be sure and check out her blog!
