Spring Break Days 4,5, & 6

Well, I got behind on blogging about our Spring Break partly because we didn't do much and partly because I started getting sick Thursday night.  I had felt it start coming on Wednesday night, but I just tried not to think about it.  The kids stayed the night with my mom and dad on Wednesday night, so after I picked them up on Thursday we went to town to buy groceries.  At this point I my throat was killing me, but I wasn't going to give into it just yet!  Thursday afternoon we went outside and played for a while then Grammy came to pick the kids up to stay the night with her!  I know, two nights in a row!!  Too bad that I felt awful by the time Carl got home at 7:00.  We did get to eat together, just in the living room while I was perched on the couch!  Friday wasn't much different.  It was freezing outside so the kids couldn't really get out and I couldn't take them out to play.  We did end up going into town to pick up my contact solution that I had forgotten to get earlier and of course stop by Sonic...it was Happy Hour!!  That chocolate shake felt awesome on my sore throat. 
Thankfully Carl didn't have to work long today because it rained.  They probably could have worked most of the day, but decided they would wait until Monday.  Carlie woke up with a sore throat this morning :(  Maybe she'll feel better before Monday.  We have had to work on her My State Notebook project for History (last minute of course!!).  About five minutes into the project (she was already 75 % done) we realized that she needed a picture of the Arkansas County Courthouse!  I guess we'll be making a trip into town later for that !!  I know, we should have done it earlier, but I do best on a deadline....probably not a good habit to pass onto my kids though. 
Oh, before I forget, could you please pray for our pastor's son, Luke.  He has cerebral palsy and was med flighted to ACH on Thursday afternoon.  As of right now, they aren't sure what is the matter with him, but are looking at him coming home maybe on Monday.  I know any and all prayers would be greatly appreciated.
Hope everyone is having a great Saturday!

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 ...
