Marathon Posting

I got in trouble the other day for not keeping my blog updated like I used to, so that's why I've been doing a little marathon posting :)  I really am trying to keep up with much bigger things in my life right now and I feel like I'm hanging by a string sometimes.  That being said, here's what's new today:
Father's Day
Can you believe that I didn't even get a picture of my dad or Carl today?!  I'm failing, I know!  We spent the morning at church, ate lunch at my Grammy's house with Papa, Daddy, and Carl.  The majority of the rest of the afternoon was spent trying to wrap up packing.  Carlie has been packed and ready since Friday and was aggravated because Carl and I wouldn't hurry up and pack our stuff!  That's our Carlie.  She was born ready for something.  Here are the few pictures I did get today:
I lied, I did get a picture of my dad and Carl....a behind picture!

Pretty soon we'll have to have a trailer :)  Yes, you do see tents
packed, however I'm NOT promising that I will be camping. 
Carl and I used to camp, but camping with kids has proven to
be a little challenging, and we'll just see how things turn out!

How cute is this?!  It's June and he falls asleep with an
Easter basket in his hand.  I didn't take a picture of it
because I was having to use my flash and I didn't want to
take a chance of waking him, but he had that crazy stuffed Woody
in the floor beside his bed, covered up with a blanket!  I love
that silly little boy :)
I probably won't be on here for a few days, but I'm sure I'll have lots of pictures to post when I get back.
Hope you all have a great week!

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!...

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...

Back To School Photo Shoot

The girls have been begging me since yesterday to take some pictures of them in some of their new outfits but yesterday the weather was kinda iffy as to if was going to rain (never did) and we would have had to fix hair before....and that just didn't really fit into our day, so I told them after church would work.  I would have never guessed how sleepy I would have been after not enough sleep due to Carlie's stomach issues and the fact that I took sinus medicine before I went to bed thought I was going to bed at 11:00.  Needless to say,  could hardly keep my eyes open during church.  I was seriously thinking of finding an empty room and taking a nap until church was over!  Instead, I waited until after we ate lunch (leftovers from last night!) and cleaned up.  I think we finished in record time and I was snoozing away by 12:45 :)  I could hear the kids, so I got up around 2:30 and the first thing Makena asked me was "Can we take pictures now?"....
