Share Four Somethings May 2021

It is hard to believe how fast May is going! We have been out of school for three weeks already! We finished early this year...we were all ready for a break! I am excited to be doing the monthly link-up of "Sharing Four Somethings" again this month.

Something Loved

We were able to get away for a long weekend to Myrtle Beach last weekend. My husband and I were celebrating our 22nd wedding anniversary 💓 We decided pretty close to the last minute to find someone to watch our puppy. It ended up being the BEST decision we could have made. We were able to reconnect with our kiddos with no distractions. No tv, no video games, no needy puppy! We had so much fun, lots of laughter, great conversations, mini-golf, bookstores (of course!), feet in the sand and sun. I am so thankful for this time away, especially since it had been years since we had gotten to do anything for our anniversary, and after such a weird/difficult year! 

Something Read (or said)

If you know me at all you know that I LOVE to read and I am ALWAYS in a book or two 📚! I did not have the opportunity to read as much this past month as I would normally have, so I will only share one book this time. I had the opportunity to be on the book launch team for
Forbidden Gift by author Debra Torres. I love Amish fiction and have read so much of it that I thought nothing could surprise me. Debra proved me wrong as her book was VERY different from the other Amish books that I have read, and I loved that! You can read all my thoughts on it here.

Something Treasured

My mom sent me a quilt that she had made for me and I got it on Wednesday. It is such a special, unexpected gift and I will cherish it. It is beautiful. I wish that I could make quilts like she does. I have made a few, but the results are not quite the same, LOL! Once I got the quilt on our bed my husband said, "It really brightens up our room!" And it does. Thanks mom, we love it!

Something Ahead

There are so many things coming up, lot of changes, and travel plans. At this exact moment, the thing I am looking forward to most is my sister, brother-in-law, and niece coming (with one of their dogs) on Thursday! Obviously with everything going on in the last year or so, it has been way too long since we have seen them!

I am thankful and grateful for the things that I have shared here and so much more! I love the way this post has had me reflect over the last month. What about you? What is something you
have loved, read (or said), treasured? And what is something ahead that you are looking forward to? I would love to hear your Four Somethings!
