One Busy Lady

This has been "the summer" for losing teeth in the Munger house.  I think we have lost a grand total of 5 or 6 teeth between Carlie and Makena!! The tooth fairy has been one busy lady :)  Carlie got in the car from school on Wednesday and handed me a zip lock baggy with a tooth in it. 
So what exactly are you supposed to do with baby teeth?!  Do you keep them?  When I was a little girl someone gave me a little keepsake box for the teeth that I lost and it had a tooth fairy on it...I've never seen one anywhere like it.  Anyway, I still have my teeth in there....Carl thinks it's disgusting, and honestly, I don't know why I've kept them all this time.  I just don't know what to do with the kids teeth.  I'll let you know what I decide :)
The first week of school has gone really well. They had their first quizzes today, one in Science and the other in American History.   We have managed to get out of the house by 7:45 and make it to school by 8:10...and the bell rings at 8:15!  Oh well, five minutes is enough time to socialize in the morning!!  Trey has also been doing well with his school work.  I found some books that he gets to use a dry-erase marker with, and he LOVES it.  We went to the library on Tuesday (which he also LOVES) and of all the books he could have gotten, he pick up Sponge Bob, Patrick, and of course a firetruck book :)  Like we don't get enough of that stuff at home!  He really looks forward to going to school to pick the girls up because he likes to go in (sometimes we go early to help clean up a little) and play with the Kindergarten, 1st, and 2ND graders that are in the gym at that time.  He's really a very social little boy :)
Carl is still working late, although it hasn't been quiet as late due to the fact that they run out of trucks because Producer's is so backed up.  He got to go to church with us on Wednesday night, and last night he was home by 8:00.  The trucks they took in on Wednesday didn't even get dumped until today!  There were somewhere around 700 trucks in the lots on Wednesday night.  If the rain holds off, maybe we'll be done by the end of next week (hoping!). 
Sorry, no pictures in this post, just updates!!  TGIF!!

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?"....
