Friday Fun!

Whoa.... what day is it? It's been one of those weeks! Thankfully it's hard to forget Friday, but we have been crazy busy with basketball. Luckily for us, the Hubby only has one more 8th grade game.

 My new glasses came in this week. I am really having to adjust to wearing glasses everyday. It was a lot harder to pick out a pair of frames than I thought. It's amazing how much clearer things are when you actually wear your glasses! Who would have thunk it?

Don't mind the crazy hair, I just didn't feel like fixing it yesterday!

We actually have a free night tonight. No set plans, no responsibilities! I don't remember what this feels like.... but the plan is to rent a couple movies and just relax, because tomorrow is a varsity basketball game and a family get together. 

I think I am going to rent The Maze Runner and The Equalizer. The Hubby LOVES Denzel Washington, so I can't imagine him being in just a terrible movie. 


If you check ratings on Rotten Tomatoes, the TOMATO-METER has it at 61% while the audience rates it at 78%.

Then I wanted to see The Maze Runner. I tried to start the book and just couldn't get into it. We will see if the movie catches my attention.


If you check ratings on Rotten Tomatoes, the TOMATO-METER has it at 63% while the audience rates it at 69%.

I am excited to have the Hubby to myself tonight! We are supposed to get 5 inches of snow on Sunday, but hopefully it'll be a good weekend overall!

Until next time,

Kara

Friday Things

Blogging has been one of those things that has fallen to the wayside. Life gets busy. Anyone else with an almost two year old knows... you can't turn your back for a minute!  Anyways, I want to try to blog more often. It's a way to look back at things we have done and reflect. Time flies and you forget little things and my blog is a way to look back. So to catch up with us a little. Cassie will be 22 months this week. WHERE HAS TIME GONE? I mean we have an almost 2 year old. It's hard to think about. She is spunky, stubborn, sweet, and funny. She's talking more and more and getting louder at doing it. Our nephew has a bounce house at his birthday party and she loved it! She isn't too coordinated yet, but she will sure try to keep up with the older kids. PS. Do you see that little pony?!? I love it, but seriously if she doesn't have her hair in a pony tail it looks ridiculous. She is at the weird growth stage where she doesn't have a ton but it has a ...

Book & Movie Review- Molly's Game

Joe and I recently read the book Molly's Game. We decided we would read the book while we waited for the movie to come out on DVD. photo credit link It is hard to believe it was a true story and just not made up. I am not one who likes biographies or reading to "learn." I like a good dramatic up and down story and this fits into that category. It's an action packed book about poker, greed, and knowing who to trust.  Molly Bloom- photo credit link The book details Molly Bloom's rise to run a secret celebrity rich poker game in back rooms and fancy hotels. The book drops some big names that many will recognize from many movies we watch on the big screen. IMDb's description of the movie is, "The true story of Molly Bloom, an Olympic-class skier, who ran the world's most exclusive high-stakes poker game and became an FBI target." photo credit link I would highly recommend reading the book first, because the movie does not use names ...

Being a Mom is Hard Enough...Being a Perfect Mom is Impossible

I'll be the first to say it, being a mom is hard. I LOVE MY DAUGHTER, she is one of my two bright spots in my day (my hubby being the other). I never realized until she came along how hard tackling being a wife, mom, career, house, and life would be. I am a hard-worker and Type A personality. I like to do things well and on the first time, but there isn't enough time in the day to do it all. The expectations that have been set by society or other mom's isn't what I have to be and I need to remember that. I read an article by Simple As That , it was talking about how we need to stop letting perfectionism ruin motherhood. It really hit home. My Hubby and daughter don't care if I'm not dressed in fancy clothes with my hair in place or cook a 5 star meal for dinner, they will remember if I was present and engaged with them in whatever we are doing.  I've felt like I have blinked my eyes and my daughter's 2nd birthday is approaching. Time goes by so quick...
