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

  Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for the first Friday Favorites of 2025! Over the past three weeks, I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to spend more time with Wrenley. She is growing up so much. She is speaking in full sentences and is a clown to boot! We've enjoyed lots of naps in BeBe's bed, playing with baby dolls (one of her favorite things), and since I have to pick her up before 7 a.m. on the days she stays with me, we enjoy getting her favorites: donuts (nonuts) and hotcakes from McDonald's -not at the same time though! Snug as a bug in a rug! She loves her Ky Ky Another favorite is a clean kitchen! We have had our house in a bit of chaos like I'm sure everyone else has with all the holiday festivities (and with Carl being off). I am glad to have everything in its proper place! That ray of sunshine is therapy for my soul! The next thing on my favorites list is Carl's chili. We had it last night and will probably have leftovers for a few day...

Friday Favorites

 Happy January 74th! Ok but really, why does January seem to go on FOREVER?! Today I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for Friday Favorites! This was definitely a favorite moment from this week!  Our 47th President, Donald J. Trump! Since Monday was also MLK day, I had the pleasure of watching sweet Wrenley.  Celebrating my niece, Ellie Kate's 15th birthday was definitely a favorite! I also watched Wrenley on Wednesday because she was a little under the weather. She had fun playing and getting lots of ice cream and popsicles! Wrenley will always be my favorite. On this day she wanted to "work" like BeBe. She's so precious, even with her little bedhead! Good Music is a favorite. Play some old-school country music and we are golden :) My favorite meal this week. It seems like forever since I made a home-cooked meal! Cajun baked chicken, corn (because Trey loves corn), broccoli, mashed potatoes with white gravy, and rolls were on the menu, and every...

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!...
