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! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

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

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
