New Season // #SoulSaturday

Everything is blooming
The earth has been reborn
The leaves are growing on the trees
The air is turning warm

FamILY and Hypocrites // #FRF

   Everyone has seen the picture that has gone viral on social media lately of the grandpa who cooked for six of his grandkids and only one showed up.

           Caption: dinner with papaw tonight...❤️ he made 12 burgers for all six grandkids and I'm the only one who showed....😭 love him

    Everyone felt sad for the grandpa because his other grandchildren seemed not to care, or that other things were more important. It is heart wrenching! How many of us saw that post and wanted to cry? 🙋🏼

    But how many of us can honestly saw we have never been guilty of the same thing, whether it be parents, kids, or other loved ones? 🙍🏼

   We are so narcissistic that we fail to realize what our actions will do to the ones we love. When they are called home, we are left with regret. Yet, when we see posts like this grandpa, we are filled with disgust, and we ponder how someone could take their loved one for granted like that. 

    LOOK IN THE MIRROR. No one will ever love you as much as your family. No matter what your family does that upsets you, the time lost is never worth it. Make God happy with the love in your heart and make yourself a better person with no regrets or hatred. 

   Most of all, MAKE TIME. Never leave them hanging with a hurt heart.

Huntsville, AL // #TravelTuesday

Pictured: Leasha Fann and Skylar Rojo

       My really good friend, Leasha and myself spent most of our Thursday last week in Huntsville, AL. We explored a lot of what the city had to offer, or your basic Thursday night out in the city closest to your hometown. We had your usual, dinner, movies, and shopping night that usually consumes your GNO. The rundown of our day: 

• Barnes & Noble splurging 
• Shopping at Parkway Place Mall
• Dinner at Sbarro (which, by the way, is delicious!) 
• London Has Fallen at Carmike Cinemas 

        My Barnes & Noble scores:

(Get yours here!)

        I already have the 500 Writing Prompts edition and I fell in love with the series! I clearly enjoy dabbling in writing, and I feel as though these books help make me a stronger writer. They are definitely a good buy, and I got a really good deal on them! If you love writing and want extra practice, get a copy ASAP!

(Get yours here!)

      I have trouble in math, myself, so I decided to pick up this Doodle Yourself Smart.. Math to see if it would help me, and it does help! Pretty good practice and a real good refresher. I encourage anyone who has trouble with math or just wants a refresher, to get this book! And all you moms out there, you can even get it for your middle schooler or high schooler!

    LONDON HAS FALLEN REVIEW
     I was beyond pleased and impressed with London Has Fallen. Gerard Butler did a superb job, as did Aaron Eckhart. I wouldn't say you HAVE to see Olympus Has Fallen to understand what was happening, because Leasha hadn't seen it and she followed the story just fine. I give it a four-stars, because it kept me on the edge of my seat, kept me engaged, had a great story, and superb filmography. If you haven't yet, I encourage you to go check it out as soon as you can! And if you haven't seen Olympus Has Fallen, I strongly encourage it. I intend to own both movies in this series.
