Valentine's Randomness

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!

If I got to pick People's 2018 Sexiest Man Alive, it'd be Chris Hemsworth.  This super random Facebook quiz tells me I have a hot date to look forward to! lol  #Thor #blueeyes #yesplease

Another man high on my list is Will Estes, aka Jamie Reagan!  Me and Rach texted about this show and Jamie vs. Danny for a while last night. We both ❤ Blue Bloods but she prefers Danny and I prefer Jamie.  

I listened to a John Eldredge podcast this week where he was talking about the shows and movies we watch, and how it's important to pay attention to the worldview they present and how they're affecting your soul.  I was conflicted about watching this show at first because of the violent crimes that are sometimes depicted, but the overall worldview of the show = God and family are always portrayed as central core values, along with loyalty and partnership. And the truth that there is real evil in this world, and we should fight to stop and overcome it! ❤ So it's not a perfect show, but a far better choice than the vast number of TV shows that glorify casual sex, promote friendship over family, and mock Christianity and conservative values.  Yay, Reagan family dinners! lol

This was our Galentine's spread last night!  I brought Hurts Donuts, but didn't get the Valentines dozen because that requires a pre-order.  Angie made a Pioneer Woman breakfast casserole that was awesome!  Laura Reeder brought some fruit, including chocolate covered strawberries!  And we had potatoes and cinnamon crunch bagels!  =)

We got several chick flick movies out, then each eliminated one, then voted on the final two.  We ended up watching She's the Man - it's not my favorite, but I laughed a lot listening to the other girls reacting and quoting it!  It was a fun, low key girls night!!

 A lovely, encouraging verse! ❤

We celebrated my birthday last weekend (I planned it for that week hoping to beat baby Wilson's arrival, but that didn't quite work out).  Anyway, here we are at the theater ready to see The Greatest Showman! #fivetimes #sogood #neverenough

Then we went to Ted's for a tasty dinner!  Someone asked me what I was doing for my birthday, and I told them, "This year, I asked all my friends to risk their lives for me!" lol  (It was misting and freezing outside that night, and I offered to change the date, but the group consensus was to stick with the original plan.)

Sarah texted me later and was upset that we'd not gotten a picture of just the two of us.  I made this and told her I fixed it. LOL

Oh, the Ted's sombrero! lol  "1-2-34!!"

Miss Ray looking kinda sad.  (I call Reagan "Miss Ray" and Kyndal "Miss K" and talk to them in a similar voice. lol)

My new fun marble-y paintings, done whilst watching the Winter Olympics 2018.

Liquid silicone ($4 at Lowe's) has been the missing ingredient all this time - it's what makes the paint have these fun little bubbles and keeps the colors from turning into a brown mess when they pool together!

Super thankful to report that Mom is doing much better and feeling almost back to normal!!  No more face masks needed. lol

Anyway, now I've caught up on all my random phone pictures!  =)

Hope you feel loved and have a lovely Valentine's Day!!

❤ With lots of love,
