Searcy Trip

Carlie was trying to stay cool on this warm October
day!
 
Makena, taking a break
Austin and Derek were trying to help Trey kick the ball....it was too funny!
This is how Austin greeted us...with two squirrel tales from
the squirrels he killed this morning!

Buddy the Beagle :)

 
Carlie, Trey, and Makena really enjoyed their hot dogs and chips!
All the kiddos playing
Who really abides by the burn bans?!  Not these neighbors!!
They got a not-so-nice visit from the cops after
the fire dept. left.  Very entertaining, though!

Pop, Aunt Shelia, Papaw Garrett, Aunt Nina, and Uncle Floyd
take time to pose for a picture before we made
our way back to Arkansas County.

Trey (being silly) with Aunt Shelia


Today we made our way to Searcy to celebrate my little cousin Austin's birthday.  They had planned to have a weenie roast, but their county just got put in a burn ban over the week (the neighbors didn't think that the law applied to them) so we  had grilled dogs instead! 
 I guess if there ever was a day that I missed having my van, today would've been that day.  We had to take two vehicles because my Papaw needed to ride with someone.  So I took my Mom and the girls with me and my Dad took Papaw and Trey in his truck.  It ended up working out great because Trey got some individual time with them.  They told me that he talked their ears off....wonder where he got that..CARL!
I'm so thankful for days like this (even though Carl wasn't able to go): Nice weather, being outside, spending time with family, and THE HOGS WON and ALABAMA LOST!!  How could it be any better?!

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 am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. This is going to be a rapid-fire Friday favorites because it is getting late and I have to wake up extra early to pick up a special little girl :) The said little girl! Nobody ever told me how much you love your grandbabies! Spending time with Wrenley is always one of my favorites💗 Another one of my favorite things is watching Makena present. This time she was on her "home turf". She did a presentation on The Stuttgart Army Airfield for a historical group at our community center. They had their biggest turnout for a meeting because Makena has so many people who support her and love her. We are thankful for everyone who came. Of course she did a great job. I'm always proud of her. It is always a favorite any time I get a video or picture of my grandson, Wesley. I can't wait until June! My gentle giant, Boone, wanting to do his favorite thing: GO OUTSIDE! Makena ...
