Ramblings From The Munger House

Having fun with the cousins at Nanny's house
Toys in the pool :)
Makena's swollen hand after she got
stung by a red wasp. 

Carlie was being Trey's buddy for the day

It has been way too long since I last blogged, and to be perfectly honest, I'm having to try and dig pictures up
of stuff we have done over the past week.  We were visited Friday by the Simpson's.  They came in from Jonesboro on their way to Morrilton to give me and Makena our birthday presents.  The kids always enjoy getting together and playing in the pool and as you could see above the boys even took the monster trucks swimming.  Saturday was.....MY BIRTHDAY!!  Carl had to work that morning and the kids went to Grammy's and made me a birthday cake.  I know every mother probably says this, but I seriously think I have the best kids EVER!!  They are always wanting to help and do sweet things, not only for me, but for others too.  Carlie brought me breakfast in bed and then they made me a cake, AND my precious nephew, Noah called me and sang Happy Birthday to me :)  We all went to eat Mexican that evening and then ended the night with a quick swim.  I had a great birthday...but I'm still not telling you how old I am !! 
We've got a busy week ahead of us that includes, but is not limited to, Revival at our church, a birthday party for my grandmother, and a birthday party for Carl's step-dad.  My camera is fixed now, so maybe I'll have some more pictures to come :)

Friday Favorites

  Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

Friday Favorites

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
