Hey Ladies!! It’s been a while for a little entertainment chat so I thought it was time. You guys always have the best recommendations so not only do I love sharing-I truly love getting some new ideas from you! This is what I’ve been reading/watching lately…
Several of my books this month were books recommended by Amazon. You know how Amazon will show you “books also purchased by other customers who bought this book”? Well, apparently this month I did a lot of shopping in that section. 🙂
This book is all about change-whether it’s a new job in a new town, a mama with a new baby, or a new diagnosis-change happens to us all. Kristen helps you see a new side of change. The side that isn’t so bad. We’re told that God never leaves us or forsakes us and that’s even referring to change! ha! Crazy to believe sometimes. Isn’t it?
First of all, I’m a big fan of Karen Ehman, so I was pumped when I heard this new book was coming out. Hoodwinked tackles ten myths that moms face-from being able to do it all to believing your way is the right way. This was a quick refreshing read that left me rallying behind all of us. We’re all doing it our way and we’re all surviving. A great read for any mom!
I absolutely loved Leah Remini in King of Queens and that’s pretty much all I knew about her. I watched her interview last fall about Scientology (it was SO intriguing), so I was pumped about reading this book. I loved it! In Troublemaker, she shares her life’s journey, her ups and downs with Scientology, and how her life has been going since she chose to leave Scientology. I finished the book a huge Leah Remini fan! I’d definitely recommend this one.
Thanks again, Amazon for this recommendation. 😉 This book took me a bit to get into, but once I got started I found myself invested in Emily’s story. She shares her own story about struggles with eating disorders, trying to get pregnant, and choosing peace over fear.
I just finished reading this book and oh my goodness, it was a tough one. Kara shared her beautiful story about grace and faithfulness as she fought to overcome her battle with cancer. As the mother to four children she tackled those tough conversations with so much grace. She has the kind of faith I can only hope I’d have when faced with such difficult circumstances. I cried throughout the story, but it was a great book. Taught me a lot about tackling hard things and choosing God’s grace to cover all the hard places. Definitely recommend it!
I’m always on the look out for good family-friendly movies. My big kids are hitting the age where they want to watch real-people movies not animated movies as much. If you have any good recommendations, please share. I’d love them even more if they were on Netflix. 🙂
Nixon is a big dog fan so if a movie has been made about a dog-we’ve probably seen it. Most of them are just kind of -eh but this movie was GOOD! I was into and might have even shed a tear.
Alvin and the Chipmunks-The Road Chip
The kiddos and I watched this movie while we were in Nashville. It was so cute! My kids loved it and what adult doesn’t enjoy Alvin and the Chipmunks, right?? If I’m going to watch an animated movie, please give me the chipmunks! 🙂
The Real Housewives of Atlanta
One of my favorite guilty pleasures is RHOA. These girls know how to bring the drama and I get sucked in EVERY season!
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
I feel the same way about these ladies! I just can’t say “NO”!!
If you’re watching, who is your fave?? I’m a huge Lisa Rinna fan! I love that girl! (Well-not cool that she even brought up that Yolanda could potentially be making up her disease, but other than that-I love her!)
Breaking Bad
This has been our post-football season show! We watch an episode almost every night and it’s SO good! (We-as in Tab and I-NOT the kids…definitely a rated R show!)
The Bachelor
AHH!!! The Bachelor is back and it just makes me happy. I get into this show every year. Bachelor…I just can’t quit you. Do you guys have a favorite??
