It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas!

This is Trey's Nativity set in his room.  He was so excited
to put it up and he loves playing with all the people.

Makena's Nutcrackers.  She has just started
collecting them this past year.  The one with the
coconut drink in his had is named Kenny!!  I don't know
where she got that from, but the girl LOVES these things!

This has been Trey's favorite book for a while now.  He
goes around singing the song to it all the time...he even did this
in the summer!  His favorite part is "Five Golden Retrievers" and of
course, "And A Poodle In a Dog House"!!  It's a very cute book.

We have started decorating for Christmas around the Munger house.  It started last Saturday (I think...my days were all off last week!) when we got the tree out of storage and spent most of the day trying to get it to look right (one day I'll splurge on a new one!) and decorating the rest of the inside.  Sunday after church Carl and I worked on the outside...we didn't put up any lights this year (yet), but instead did greenery and red bows around the front posts. 
This has been a pretty hard week so far.  I guess being off from school/work for a week really got us off course.  Carl got sick on Saturday, and to this day sounds awful.  He refuses to go to the doctor, though.  He is getting better, but it is a very slow process.  Bless his heart, he did basketball practice on Tuesday with little to no voice!  Thank goodness for the whistle!  So the girls and Carl had basketball on Tuesday, yesterday we had our Hughes Net installed (which took 3 1/2 hours!) and Discovery,  and today I've got to get off here so I can clean and get ready to go get the girls and take them to b-ball practice again! 
They will play their first game on Monday night.  They are playing a different private school in Stuttgart.  It's really no big deal, but I have to question their coach putting Carlie on as point guard!!  I'm going to be sure and take my video camera because it's going to be hilarious!!
Saturday morning we are planning to do Christmas card pictures (I'm a little late, I know!) and Saturday afternoon we are going to my Aunt Kathleen's house in Sheridan for Christmas. 
To say the least this month is jam-packed!!  It's like people just see how much they can cram into one month!!  No wonder why we forget the "real" meaning of Christmas...we're too darn busy!

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...

 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 ...
