My Favorite Things

Ok.  I really am wanting to host a Favorite Things Party.  It sounds so fun to do with friends!


These are a few of my favorite things right now...

Modern Family.  My favorite show.  It honestly is one of the few that make me laugh out loud
every single week!  I think it may have even replaced my first love, The Office?!




We were introduced about a year ago to Pho (a Vietnamese soup pronounced 'fuh')...and have been obsessed ever since.  It has kind of replaced our cravings for Thai food.  If you haven't tried some yet...do it!! :)




And...I think I wear these almost everyday.  Literally. 
My other shoes are feeling very neglected.  But, these are the most comfortable shoes I own!  Gap City Flats.




This book has helped change my focus from what I don't have to the 
thousands of blessings, from God, that I do have.  
Naming and counting your blessings.  Life changing.





Philip makes fun of how obsessed I have become with coffee.  I do not deny it. :)
Actually just last night he made a late night run for this creamer 
so I would have it in the morning.
Good husband.





And, last but not least...this video of a 5th grade public school choir in Staten Island.  It brought me to tears the first time I saw it.  Maybe it's the teacher in me...watching a gifted music teacher do something extraordinary with his students.  Maybe it's watching them not care about anybody around them and singing their heart out.  
I can learn from this.
