Weekend Wrapup {Feb 20}

Hello Monday!  How was your weekend?  Here's a look at some highlights from the past week.

For Valentine's Day, I pulled out this old heart locket that I hadn't worn in years.  Look at the two little munchkins I had hidden away inside!  Miss those little sweethearts!

Michael gave me this beautiful locally-made pendant.  It is a bell that actually rings.  I love it!

For our Valentine's Day, we had a dinner at home - grilled steak, sides and apple pie.  

Our niece brought us homemade macarons!  They are so delicious. What a fun surprise.

On Friday, I tried a small group through the new church we are attending.  I really liked it, and am encouraged to go back.  It is a ladies walking group, although they met for coffee this week since it was extra chilly.  Later on Friday, Michael and I went to lunch.  In the evening, we finished watching Season 2 of The Chosen.  It's now available on Prime Video.

We have been debating about keeping our season tickets for the Houston Broadway series.  They just released the shows for the new season, and I have to say this line up made the decision a little easier.  These shows just didn't appeal to me.  We will to see other productions this year.  Houston has so many theater options, ranging from very small to local Broadway-style productions.  We will have plenty of options!

Speaking of theater, I went with a friend to a local production of the one-man show Every Brilliant Thing.  The play is interactive and different from anything I had seen before.  

The play follows a man who looks back on his life, which was impacted by his mother's suicide attempts as a child and teen.  A really tough subject, but handled with sensitivity and humor too.  As a boy, he starts compiling a list of life's "brilliant things."  

They encouraged audience members to write their favorite "brilliant thing" for this board in the lobby.  It was a great show - you can read more about it here.

Sunday morning - a Trader Joe's croissant and coffee.  Then church.  Then lunch.

Burgers for lunch at an old fave restaurant

A fun stop at Tractor Supply.  Girl scout cookies are out - this could be dangerous.

After a cold week, our gorgeous weather was back on Sunday.  

We watched a few episodes of Poker Face on Peacock - loving this series!

I hope you have a good week 

filled with giving and receiving kindness!
