March has truly come in like a lion. We have had two major storms in less than a week. The kids have not been in school since last Friday! Goodbye spring break, since they’ve used all their snow days and then some! March was supposed to be a super busy month for us, but many events have been cancelled or postponed. Spring cannot come soon enough! We have had sad news from various family members as well, making it a not-so-great week. However, there have also been several happy moments as well which I shared in Wednesday’s Rocking My Happy post. Here are five from this week:
Reading – I just finished reading Anatomy of a Scandal by Sarah Vaughan. I’m not sure if I’m getting tired of the suspense genre or I’m just picking not-so-great-books. But this was just an okay read for me.
Watching – Sunday we went to see Black Panther. My son had been really wanting to see this movie. While I almost passed on it, my husband convinced me to go and enjoy some time with the family. I have to admit that I enjoyed this movie a lot more than I thought I would. We also watched Wonder. They did a great job turning the book into a movie.
Family Time – Last weekend we went out to lunch and then went duck pin bowling. I’ll have a post up on the blog soon! But for those unfamiliar, duck pin bowling uses smaller pins and smaller balls. I hadn’t been duck pin bowling since I was a child myself. It was different and fun family experience.
Eating – Before we went bowling last weekend we stopped for lunch at JK’s Restaurant. My husband ate here when he was a kid. Since we were in the area bowling he suggested we have lunch here. We enjoyed this delicious spread and shared some milkshakes. Definitely not a healthy meal, but pretty tasty!
Listening – I found a new podcast that I’ve been enjoying. Forever35 is hosted by Kate and Doree. The two talk all things beauty, nutrition, and self-care. It’s fun to listen while I commute to work.
Sharing with Friday Favorites! Have a great weekend!
I didn’t love Anatomy of a Scandal either. Great premise but I didn’t love the execution. Have a great weekend!
Yeah, I’m trying to mix up my reading because I’ve been feeling so blah about some of the suspense books I’ve been reading.
I look forward to these posts every week! Looks like a good one! And Bacon on a hotdog?! Yup!
We love bacon on everything in this house! LOL! Thanks for stopping by!
We loved Black Panther! My almost four year old was pretty sad that I wouldn’t let him see it. lol. He thinks all super hero movies are cartoons 😛
Yes, Black Panther was good and I’m not really into the super hero movies.
Wow – a week of no school! Your kids are either in heaven or bored and ready to get back to school. 😀 While I have not read Anatomy of a Scandal, I hear you on getting tired of the thriller/mystery/suspense genre. I’ve been feeling the same way. Everything feels old and done. So I’ve been trying to mix in some other genres. It’s helping a bit. Have a great weekend!
No, they were not ready to go back to school! LOL! I’m enjoying reading some different genres as well in between my mystery/suspense reads.
I’m excited to see Black Panther… but since having M we’re a few movies behind! Glad to hear it was good!
Yeah, we don’t go out to the movies too often, but my son really wanted to see this.
Ah bowling sounds so fun! Sounds like a great week 🙂
Yes, the kids love bowling. Definitely a favorite family activity!
Family time is the best! PS–Your meal looks so yum!! Have a great weekend.
Yes, I love family time. Thanks for stopping by!
