Friday Trip to Morrilton

Today we took a quick little trip to Morrilton to pick my mom up and to also see the Simpson's for a while.  They were so sweet and had a little birthday party for both me and Makena.  We had pizza and cupcakes :)  Oh the joys of living in the city limits where you can actually get pizza delivered...sometimes I wish I lived "in town"!
Look at these two!  Ellie Kate couldn't decide between her
pizza and cupcake, so she ate a little of one, then a little of
the other!

These were taken with my phone and I'm too lazy tired
to edit them.  Makena was eating her pizza.  I think it is
now her favorite food :)  We won't mention that they had
it 3 times over the past week.  We'll do better next week!

Jamie made this for me for my birthday.  She has become quite the
little Martha Stewart!  I have a stand that I am going to put it on.

She also made these cups....oh, wait I'd better say that Cody
made the cups!!  He was sure to let us know who did it yesterday.
I think he did a good job :)  All the kids had one, and I was the "special"
(no wise cracks) adult that got one too!

I didn't get any pictures of Carlie or Noah at the party :(  Noah was SUPER excited that we were there and I don't think he sat down for more than 5 minutes (to eat) and honestly Carlie is about the same way.  She was carrying EK around playing with her most of the time. 
We had a great time and by the time we got home we were so tired we didn't do much of anything!  The heat was pretty bad today.  It was right around 100 all day.  I always feel so bad for Carl for having to be out in it.  He says he's used to it, but he didn't do much outside when he got home last night either!

Hope you all have a great weekend and find a cool spot to stay!

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

 Happy January 74th! Ok but really, why does January seem to go on FOREVER?! Today I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for Friday Favorites! This was definitely a favorite moment from this week!  Our 47th President, Donald J. Trump! Since Monday was also MLK day, I had the pleasure of watching sweet Wrenley.  Celebrating my niece, Ellie Kate's 15th birthday was definitely a favorite! I also watched Wrenley on Wednesday because she was a little under the weather. She had fun playing and getting lots of ice cream and popsicles! Wrenley will always be my favorite. On this day she wanted to "work" like BeBe. She's so precious, even with her little bedhead! Good Music is a favorite. Play some old-school country music and we are golden :) My favorite meal this week. It seems like forever since I made a home-cooked meal! Cajun baked chicken, corn (because Trey loves corn), broccoli, mashed potatoes with white gravy, and rolls were on the menu, and every...

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!...
