Snow Day #4

Carlie and Happy sledding at the house

Now it's Trey's turn!

Makena Faith was last

Then we headed to Nanny and Pop's house
and started at on the little hill

Then we moved to the big one!
For some reason Trey loved the little sled
It made him get snow all in his face.

Here comes Carlie!

They were fighting over who was riding next!

Pop watched, but didn't take part in
our snow fun.

Nanny did, though!!

Today we let the kids go out and play in the snow.  They were ready to go out at 8:00 this morning when it was 17 degrees, but we insisted they wait until it at least reached 30!  By the time we made it back in, they were freezing with little rosy red faces.  After lunch we went over to my mom and dad's house since they have a hill (not all that many in our area) and had a good time.  I even gave in and let Carl pull me behind the 4-wheeler (notice you don't see any pics of that!) and then he trusted me to pull him.  That might have been a mistake on his part because he fell off twice :)  He said it was my driving, I said that it was his weight!!  He was a good sport about it anyway :) 
We are still waiting to see if we have a fifth snow day tomorrow.  I sure hope not!

Looks like y'all had a wonderful snow day!! =) We've got to invest in a sled before the next snow! I'm hoping it will be next year before we need a sled though!

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

 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 ...

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...
