Last Day Of School and Graduation

Trey and Carlie at the school-wide birthday party yesterday.

I forgot to bring my camera in, so these are with my phone.

Our end of the group. We got there a little later

than I had planned last night, so we didn't get good seats :(

Sam, Makena, and Tristen waiting on the music to start.

WE ARE DONE!!! The day I had been waiting on for a month now, has came and went. My excitement soon faded when I realized that the next time we start school, Trey will be going! Last night they had kindergarten graduation right before the real seniors graduated and I couldn't help but tear up a little thinking about Trey being in his little cap and gown next year. He will tell you that he's ready, and I know it's time.

Today Carl is working (of course) and we are just going to hang out. Maybe clean a little, do a little homework(me), and go swimming. We are supposed to go to a birthday party and an anniversary party, but nobody really wants to go anywhere. We are just taking it minute by minute right now :)

I have another prayer request. A little baby named Jagger Barnes. He had to be taken on Thursday morning due to pregnancy complications....12 weeks early. He is in Arkansas Children's Hospital right now receiving the best care possible, but as you can imagine he has a long ways to go. His mom, Tonya has been a fill-in Mother Helper at our school and his big sister Olivia just graduated from kindergarten at our school last night. Please pray for the whole family.

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...
