Friday....3 More Days

Today was the day(actually yesterday, I'm still a day behind!)...we got to meet our new teachers :)  You know, a really good blogger mom would have taken her camera to take pictures of the girls with the principal, new teachers, friends, etc.  Well, the day proved to be a little challenging, so I was not a good blogger mommy. 
As we were leaving for Open House yesterday, Trey started saying his tummy hurt....SERIOUSLY??  So I load them all up anyway, and we take off to town.  On the 15 minute ride he continues to complain numerous times.  I try to ignore, the whole time praying so hard that he doesn't get sick.  So we made it!!  He didn't complain the whole time we were at the school...WHEW!! 
Their teacher seems to be really sweet !  :)    We talked for a while and then left.  I had already planned to go shopping before we went back home, so we headed over to Belk.  While we were there Trey started complaining again, only this time he was on the ground with his knees to his chest. So, there went my shopping trip :(  I got him a Sprite at Sonic and we started home and then...he started screaming  I GOTTA POOP!!! By this time we were to the farm, so we stopped and let him poop.  Nothing out of  the ordinary going on with the number 2.  He felt fine after that.  Just like it started, it ended!
I took them to Grammy and Papa's house around 5:30 and they couldn't wait for me to leave :(  They ate pizza, went out to feed the chickens and gather the eggs, took their baths, and had a talent show!  Grammy took a few pictures, but I haven't seen them yet.  Trey was playing the electric guitar, Carlie was playing the fiddle, and Makena was on the mandolin!  There are so blessed to have great-grandparents that are still active enough to do things like this with them.  Making Memories :) 
Carl didn't get home until 8:30, so I enjoyed a quiet house for a while. 
I am already getting a little sad to thinking that summer is over.  Carl thinks I'm crazy, guess it's just a Momma thing :)

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!...

Red Flags: Guarding Our Hearts & Our Churches

 Scripture tells us that shepherds are entrusted with God's flock, no for selfish gain but "being examples to the flock" (1 Peter 5:3). A pastor's calling is a holy one, rooted in humility, sacrifice, and love. But Jesus also warned that not every shepherd has pure intentions--some are "wolves in sheep's clothing" (Matthew 7:15).  As believers, we must stay discerning. Here are some red flags to watch out for in pastors: 1.  Special Treatment for Certain Families  James warns against showing partiality (James 2:1-4), yet some pastors cater to certain families, wealthy donors, or influential members while neglecting the rest of the body. Christ doesn't play favorites--every soul in the church matters equally to Him. A true shepherd cares for the unnoticed as much as the well-known. 2. Neglecting the Brokenhearted  Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted (Luke 4:18), but a pastor who avoids the messy, hurting, or less "influential" people in th...

Back To School Photo Shoot

The girls have been begging me since yesterday to take some pictures of them in some of their new outfits but yesterday the weather was kinda iffy as to if was going to rain (never did) and we would have had to fix hair before....and that just didn't really fit into our day, so I told them after church would work.  I would have never guessed how sleepy I would have been after not enough sleep due to Carlie's stomach issues and the fact that I took sinus medicine before I went to bed thought I was going to bed at 11:00.  Needless to say,  could hardly keep my eyes open during church.  I was seriously thinking of finding an empty room and taking a nap until church was over!  Instead, I waited until after we ate lunch (leftovers from last night!) and cleaned up.  I think we finished in record time and I was snoozing away by 12:45 :)  I could hear the kids, so I got up around 2:30 and the first thing Makena asked me was "Can we take pictures now?"....
