Casual Fridays

First of all, I finished The Three Musketeers this week. I was not expecting this book to be as challenging to get through as it was, and I'm pretty proud of myself for sticking it out to page 700. 700 pages, y'all! 67 chapters. It was so long. There will be a recap up Monday and then it's good riddance to D'Artagnan & Co. 

But moving on, last weekend Cody and I drove up to Alabama to spend some time with my brother and sister and niece. It is so nice to have them within driving distance again. Japan is just too far away. 
We had a blast together (like we always do), and y'all. I rolled a TRIPLE YAHTZEE in ONE GAME. I don't know if you've ever played Yahtzee or not, but that's a big deal. As you can clearly see, my niece just keeps getting cuter and cuter and check out those diva shades she's rocking. I mean, really. I just can't. 

I'm planning to knock out Hamlet this week and then get started on The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom. I've already met my official goal of reading 12 books this year, but I still have 5 more from my original list to go. I'm attempting to finish all the books from my 2017 list in October (which is when the new RJG book comes out) so that I can read whatever I want in November and December. It's possible, right? 

What have you been up to lately? Reading any good books right now? Don't forget to stop by Monday for my recap of The Three Musketeers!
