From Bad To Good

Oh, Monday why do you have to live up to your bad name!  No, it really hasn't been a bad day, just a long day.  On the way home from our date night, I realized that my drivers license expired on Sunday :(  I absolutely HATE having my picture taken for my drivers licence.  There has to be some kind of law somewhere that says that those pictures have to be bad because I've never seen a good one.  Well, I didn't see one today either!   And bless her heart, the girl that waited on me at the Revenue office had the personality of a ground rattler....seriously....AND I didn't know that you have to pay 20 bucks to have the darn picture made....grrrrr.  Bad morning, but thankfully the day got better :)

Carl came home to eat lunch with us and after we got finished we decided to walk over to Ms. Lena's Pie Shop to get a piece of pie.

This is why I can't lose weight:
Makena and Trey got blueberry cream cheese pie, me and Carl
got chocolate pie, and of course Carlie got a fried apple pie.  She LOVES
her some apple pie...in any form!

After Carl went back to work we rested, cleaned a little, then we decided to go swimming.   Everyone was in a good mood today, which made EVERYTHING easier on ME!  Love that :)

That smile makes my life so much more easy!

Trey was showing me one of his tricks on the slide.
He is a dare devil!

Makena was cooling off in front of the fountain.

And he started this....THE POSE!

Bulls Eye :)

Where's Trey?!

And, another pose....he was a camera hog today :)

Makena was having a puppet show for me with her water
balloons!

BUSTED!!  Carlie was in the pool with her food...
and from the looks of it, she had a mouth full too!
I'm tellin' Pop!!!

Carlie was being sneaky about something!

Happy Kids = Happy Mama!

When Carl got home from work we grilled some tasty pork chops, had some corn, fresh steamed squash, potatoes and gravy, and mac n cheese....it was delish!
 
What started out as a bad day, turned out to be a good one.  The only thing that would have made it better would have been some rain :)  Tomorrow I get to go clean the church with all the ladies before Revival next week.  It's a tradition (the cleaning), I don't even know how long it's been going on, but I'm happy to be part of it!

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...

Friday Favorites

 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 ...
