Sunny Days and Sidewalk Chalk

What a Beautiful day!!  We have really enjoyed the past few days.  Saturday I was supposed to attend a Vacation Bible School Seminar in Pine Bluff but Carl had to work and I didn't want to bring Trey along, so I stayed at home:(   We decided that since there wasn't anything else to do we would go to the park.  I did take my camera along but I ran into an old friend and I didn't get the opportunity to take any pics.  We had only been there for about 30 minutes when Carl called and said that he was coming home, so he came by the park and watched the kids play for a while, then we all went home. 
 Demolition is in full force at our house.  Carl finally finished my storage building and we are working on tearing the old one down (YES!!)  I'm really hoping that it will be done by Easter, but since Carl is already in the field, it may or may not happen.  Yesterday after church the girls and I took a bike ride while Carl and Trey burned some old boards and junk from the building, and it felt so good to just ride and talk with them.  They are growing up on me way too fast!  I'm about to have a ten year old, an eight year old, and a five year old.  I don't have any babies anymore.  On the bright side, they are now old enough to do more things and it is so much easier going  anywhere. 
Today I took the girls to school then I came home and started doing my usual stuff.  Trey and I spent the majority of the afternoon outdoors.  We rode bikes, jumped on the trampoline, and played in the sandbox.  Then my mom got home with the girls and brought some sidewalk chalk and sidewalk paint!! So guess what we did the rest of the afternoon!  Carl will die when he gets home because he HATES sidewalk chalk--I can only imagine what he'll say about the paint!!

Friday Favorites

Happy Friday, friends! We made it through another week here on the homestead. Today, I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites :) This week has flown by! On Monday, Wrenley started her new "school year" at daycare. Even though she is in the same school with a lot of the same kids, she moved up and is now officially in PreK! She has had to adjust to new teachers, but seems to like it so far :) She is BeBe's big girl! 💓💓💓 At the beginning of the week, Carl asked if Makena and I wanted to go with him and Trey put some corn and salt blocks out for the deer. Say less, sir! Of course, our answer was yes :) Our chariot and driver Trey and Maggie Hopefully, our hard work pays off! Also came across this guy. He was around 5 ft. long and had 14 rattlers. Don't ask how I know that 😟 We always have a good time when we hang out with our guys, and that is most certainly a favorite! Watching my girl do her thing at work will always be my favorite!...

Friday Favorites

 Woo Hoo, it's Friday! Just last week I was talking about how this month is flying by, but this week has moved at a snail's pace! Today, I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for Friday Favorites. I have been working on my fitness for about a year now, more seriously in the past 6 months. One thing I've worked on is getting my daily protein in. I tried the built puff protein bars a while ago and they are wonderful, but earlier this week I found the sour puffs, and wow, those things are surprisingly amazing!! I've also taken the new year to do a little more for myself. I started ordering from Nuuly (a monthly clothing subscription). I have found serveral brands that I have wanted to try. There is no pressure to buy anything. You just simply pick 6 items, wear them for the month and send it back and then pick 6 more items (of course, you can purchase if you like). This is a new favorite of mine. At the end of November I bought tickets to the Jason Aldean conce...

Friday Favorites

 Happy Friday, Friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. What a week it has been! Having picnics with Wrenley and Makena were pretty high up on my favorites list. She wanted a lunchable (big surprise there!) while Makena and I had tuna salad. Playing outside is a must with Wrenley! And she loves making sure the bird bath has plenty of water! Another thing on my favorites list is listening to Trey play the guitar. This smile is also my favorite! We had a celebration for my son-in-law, Caleb this week. He is a pretty great guy and we are thankful that he is "ours" now :)  He is my favorite son-in-law! As I was studying for my Gospel Project lesson earlier this week I realized we only have 3 more lessons! That means that summer break is just 3 weeks away (for our Wednesday night program)! Although I will still have to prepare lessons for Sunday School and VBS.  Summer is my favorite! This summer will be extra sp...
