The 5@5, January 5th, 2024

Hi All!

Welcome to our first ever installment of the Five@Five! Delivering a weekly roundup of my thoughts, joys, and explorations.

What I'm Listening to...

**Featured Artist: Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors**
I've recently discovered a fantastic band that's been on repeat for me – Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors. Their soulful sound and thoughtful lyrics make for a captivating musical experience. One of my favorite tracks is "Find Your People." The harmonious blend of acoustic melodies and heartfelt lyrics creates a perfect backdrop for any moment. Check it out on YouTube HERE and let me know what you think!

What I'm watching...

**Family Fun with "Holey Moley"**
In the realm of family-friendly entertainment, my eight-year-old has introduced me to the hilarious world of "Holey Moley." This quirky game show has become our go-to evening watch, providing laughter and excitement for the whole family. The unique mini-golf challenges and entertaining commentary make it a delightful choice for pre-bedtime bonding. If you're looking for a lighthearted show to enjoy with your loved ones, "Holey Moley" might just be the perfect pick. Check it out HERE.

Where I'm dining...

**Culinary Adventures at The Garrison**
When it comes to local dining, The Garrison in Yarmouth, Maine, has stolen my heart. Its ever-evolving menu keeps me coming back to discover new culinary delights. The ambiance is exceptional, providing a perfect setting for a delightful dining experience. If you haven't explored The Garrison yet, I highly recommend it for an evening of top-notch food and a welcoming atmosphere. Check out the menu or reserve a table HERE.

What the kids are up to...

**Our Two-Sport Adventure**
In the realm of parenting, my son has taken on the role of a two-sport athlete this season. While it has turned me into a part-time taxi driver, the silver lining is the invaluable bonding time we share during our car rides. One of his newfound passions is freestyle skiing, and the excitement is palpable as he gears up for his first competition this weekend. It's a proud parent moment, watching him pursue his interests with dedication and enthusiasm!

What I'm reading...

**Journeying Through "The Way of the Warrior"**
Currently immersed in "The Way of the Warrior," this book has captured my interest with its profound insights. The author's exploration of greatness and its impact on the world resonates deeply with me. One of my favorite quotes from the book is, “You may not need to be great, but the world needs your greatness.” It's a thought-provoking read that encourages reflection on our journeys and contributions to the world. Check it out!

Be on the lookout for more to come every Friday at 5AM.
