Books to Inspire You in the New Year!

I am so excited about the new year and the promise of things to come. There are so many great reads being released this year from some of my favorite authors. This week it's all about...
INSPIRATION

The new year begins a tradition of reading the Bible from cover to cover.  It's a tradition many of my family and friends have adopted throughout the year and one I've practiced for several years now.  Nothing like a spiritual recharge to kick off the new year!

What books do you find yourself reading each year?  Which authors inspire you?  

Hachette Book Group - home of FaithWords and Center Street books - has several great books to inspire and recharge from world-renowned authors such as Joyce Meyer and John C. Maxwell.  I really enjoy reading Joyce Meyer's books and have a friend who regularly indulges in Meyer's writings with me.  Nothing better than sharing a fab read with a friend.  Check out these recent releases from Meyer and Maxwell.

Good Health, Good Life by Joyce Meyer (FaithWords)
      To do the work we are meant to do, our bodies need to stay in shape. In this compact read Joyce Meyer presents her twelve-key plan to address the "self esteem drought" which perpetuates the habits that cause poor health. As she explores each of the twelve keys for good health, she offers five methods for improving our physical and spiritual wellness.
Meeting the demands of your busy life may leave little time for you to focus on maintaining your personal well-being. But it is important to remember that each part of you-mind, body, and emotions-serves a purpose in God's exciting plan for your future. Embracing a healthier lifestyle will help you fully experience all the good things He has in store for you.

http://bit.ly/1yhZC1iJoyce Meyer, #1 New York Times bestselling author, understands that modern life is hectic and has created a practical plan for achieving good health, one day at a time. Her easy-to-use 12-Key Plan for Good Health will help you develop life-changing habits for a healthier lifestyle, no matter what your current level of health. By following her simple, yet effective tips on eating, exercise, rest, and stress management, you will unlock a new level of well-being, empowering you to live the fulfilling life you were meant to lead.

Jumpstart Your Leadership by John C. Maxwell (Center Street) was released just before the holiday shopping rush.  I've been reading it over the course of the last couple of weeks and it is helping me focus on gearing myself for leadership.  There are some great tips within the book and I am confident I will be able to use these tips to help me develop a plan and hone my skills to better myself.

John C. Maxwell, #1 New York Times bestselling author, presents his 90-day guide to improving your leadership. Whether you want to increase your influence, prepare yourself for that big promotion, or get a handle on leadership for the first time, you can trust John Maxwell to help you in the journey.  Click on the book image on the right to read an excerpt of Maxwell's Jumpstart Your Leadership.


2015 is shaping up to be a year of dynamic book releases and I am looking forward to sharing news of upcoming releases with Three Boys and an Old Lady blog readers.  Does your favorite author have any books coming out this year?  Let me know, leave a comment below.

Life is a Beach Giveaway Hop

Spring is in full swing.  The birds are singin'.  The pollen is falling and temps are FINALLY warming up.  So what better time time to start planning our Summer getaways. This year - as always - we are beach bound.  It's one of our fave places to visit given we only get to the beach once or twice a year.   Last year's visit to Cozumel was one for the record books. We stopped by this little restaurant and dined on grilled shrimp in a cabana right on the beach.   'Ohana also has a line of tequilas in flavors I had never seen before.  Tropical flavors such as coconut, mango and pina colada.  Hubby and I tried the 'Ohana peanut butter tequila.  The owner said folks either love it or hate it... we LOVED it!!! As I was sipping all I could think of was how good this peanut butter tequila would taste as a baste on my tequila wings.  It would be like a tequila satay wings type dish. * * * G I V E A W A Y * * * One lucky Three ...

Jeepers! It's January Hop

Happy New Year! What better way to kick off the new year than with a giveaway! I am so excited to join The Mommy Island, The Kids Did It and 90+ other fab blogs in the first big giveaway hop of 2018! Here’s your chance to start the new year off with a win. One lucky Three Boys and an Old Lady blog reader will receive a $15 Walmart eGift card. $10 may not seem like a lot but it’s enough to stock up on some last minute Christmas clearance gifts. Trust me. I bought a 6’ Christmas tree WITH lights, 2 animal massagers, 3 Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser, Christmas cards and wrapping paper less than $20 during an after Christmas Walmart shopping trip. I was searching for some cough syrup when my friend’s kid spotted the Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser on sale for 50 cents. What a steal! The regular price is $10 so to find them on sale for 50 cents was a deal. We cleared the shelves. A few rows down we spotted some anima...
