Busy As A Bee!

Well the title says it all....I have been super busy this week.  I knew it would be hard to manage my time and making this school thing a new normal for me, but I didn't realize how unorganized I really am!  I finally broke down and bought a binder system to keep up with all of my stuff so it wouldn't just be laying around everywhere.  I'm still working on that!  My classes have taken up 2 to 3 hours a morning and I usually read for about an hour and a half at night, but I have a couple of really big things due in the next 2 weeks, so that might change :)   I think this will be a little easier once school is out....I might be wrong, but I can always hope.
The kids are winding down at school and we only go 3 1/2 days next week and then our graduation and closing program is Friday night at 7:30.  It's still up in the air as to if we will be going to the closing program...I probably will, I just don't want to!  I love hearing the girls sing, I just don't want to sit through graduation.  If you remember we had one of our seniors die in a car accident in February, and I know that graduation will be a little sad because of that. 
Oh, before I forget--the trial that was scheduled for yesterday was postponed because the loser guy is in rehab right now.  We found that out on Tuesday, and to be honest, it was the best news that I heard all week :)  I just want to say thank you for all of those of you who have/are praying for us (Carlie).  It means a lot to us to know that you care.  Don't stop yet!
I only have a couple of pictures to share for this week---like I said, I've been a busy little bee, and there was just simply no time to take pictures.

I took this picture of all the kids in their
red,white, and blue clothes for my mom.  It
 was actually taken last Friday!

My mom got the girls these cute flip-flops, called SwitchFlops!
They are so cool because you get to "switch" the design to one that
will match you clothes and they stick on with Velcro :)  Very cute
idea that has made someone millions, no doubt!  We are lovin' our
SwitchFlops---wish they made them in my size.


Trey fell in love with this Sponge Bob hat, which we did NOT
buy.  I was a little disturbed that he put it on his head, but since it
was already there, I took his picture.  See, I'm learning to "roll"
with stuff :)  Aren't you proud?!

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

 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...
