Hello Monday ~ February 17, 2025

 Happy Monday!  Does it seem like February has been a little long?  I feel like once the first 2 months are behind us, the rest of the year seems to go by faster. Here is a little recap of the weekend.

I worked Friday morning and then watched the Hallmark movie, 
An Unexpected Valentine.  It was a cute movie.  The other recent Hallmark movies this year I have recorded haven't really kept my interest for the whole movie.  

After the movie, I ran a few errands, including a stsop by John Mark's store.

I spent the night at my sister's and hung out with these cuties!  
Bedtime snuggles
A great way to go to sleep...being with these little ones.  
Saturday morning, these little girls put on a routine dancing to "5 Little Monkeys" :)

Saturday was a milestone for me so it brought some emotions, a lot of strength and encouragement going forward.  It was a super rainy day.  On such a day, of course I got some frozen yogurt as a treat!
I went to get a massage and then afterwards, got a frosted lemonade from Chick-fil-A. 

Sunday was church, where I kept the nursery, so it was a time of hanging out with friends. I spent the afternoon at home being fairly lazy.  Jennifer and I went to dinner at a mediterranean restaurant and we had a fun visit and catching up from the week.  

 I have a lot of big things coming up once again this week and can use a prayer for tomorrow. Thank you friends.

  1. How fun to get to spend time with your sister and the kiddos!! I'm sure it was a barrel of laughs but also a bit tiring :). Your food/drink pics look good. I'll keep you in my prayers this week. Sending hugs :).

  2. I love the little girls and their dance routine. That makes me think of mine when they were little and loved putting on shows of all kinds for us. I will keep you in my prayers this week as well. Hope things go well and there are some bright spots there too.

  3. It was the best idea to spend Friday night with your sister and greats. I'm so glad we got to spend last night together catching up and talking about....I'll leave that unsaid, but know that I was up until almost midnight texting. 🤣🤣

  4. I am glad you treated yourself on the day you hit a milestone. You are now a John Mark superfan, too! Ha! You had a full weekend! I am sure the Hallmark holiday was hard, but you did it - another thing down and you are stronger for it.

  7. Nice job treating yourself. I love their frosted lemonades. I had a free version of the keylime one in my app, not really a fan of that one.

  15. Sounds like a lovely weekend! The snuggles with the little ones must have been so sweet. A frozen yogurt treat is always a great idea, especially on a rainy day. I'm a day late reading (always playing catch-up!). But I hope all went well yesterday, and I've made a note to pray for you this week.
