A New Home {Five on Friday}

I unintentionally took a little blogging break this week, but I am glad I did, as it was very needed.

Moving, well you know, moving can hit you hard. You are tired, you are excited, your are very emotional{well this girl is} and a lot of "new" is thrown at you all at once. So this week I have had some productive days and then some very lazy and emotionally hard days.

But I am slowly getting into the groove of things and man that husband of mine, to be with him?? Fills my heart with so much joy and makes the difficulties of moving fade away.

And now Friday is here and that is exciting in itself! Roberto has a game tonight and it will be the first one I attend...woo! And then there is a possibility of a little traveling this weekend, which just makes me giddy!

But before we get on with this Halloween (!) weekend, a little Friday catch up and randomness to fill you with...

Last night we had one of Robert's teammates and friend over for dinner and we just had the best time! Bananagrams {such a fun game}, a pasta dish and homemade funfetti cupcakes {you have to get creative here in Poland sans box mix}. Inviting others into our home is something I am trying to get better at. It brings me so much joy to do so, but it seems like so much of the time I do not do it because I feel too much pressure. What will I cook? What will we talk about? Is my house clean enough? Anyone else? BUT my heart is slowly changing. Thanks to the She Reads Truth Hospitality Plan I am learning to view hospitality the way Jesus did/does. It is not about perfection at all.

Thank you for all your TV/movie/book suggestions from last week! It was so helpful. Currently I have added these to my list... I want to try Homeland and/or House of Cards for a new tv series {I think those could be ones the husband and I would both like}. And for books I have added Unbroken, The Husband's Secret, Bread and Wine, The Power of a Woman's Words, The Best Yes, Highly Happy Marriages {with Rob}and The gift of Imperfection. Whew! That will take me a while, but excited to read lots in the coming months! And thank you all for help!

We got out and explored a little this week! Lublin is a pretty big city, it has it's Old Town which is quaint and filled with restaurants and then the rest of the city is just what you would imagine a city to be. Not as much to do here as there was in Nuremberg last year. So we will have to get a little more creative with our time! We did see a movie on Sunday at the theatre and it was wonderful...a little slice of home. We would highly recommend Fury!

I married into a KC Royal loving family. So am I the best Royals fan? Sadly, no. But you bet we watched them play this week, cheering our little hearts out! We thought our shirts from Mama Lew would bring them Good Luck...game 6, yes! Game 7, not so much.

We do not have a car here so I am learning the public transportation ropes! Aka the bus. Roberto has it down, and I took it all by myself the other day. I am such a big girl :) Slowly but surely I will get it down. Right now I am just rejoicing in the fact that I have not gotten lost!

If you got through all that, I am sending you a big Polish hug!

Happy Friday, friends! And Happy Halloween! Enjoy all the candy and have the best weekend.
