More Birthday Celebrations!

As I mentioned in my previous post, Grammy had her birthday on Friday and Saturday was Papaw T.R.'s birthday!  We had WAY too much cake and ice cream this weekend :) 
All the kids (and Nanny) helped blow the candles out :)

Saturday we headed to Jonesboro for T.R.'s birthday.  Carl had to go check some more water at the farm (AGAIN!) and then he had to help the men at the church clean up (revival this week), and we finally got to leave around 11:15.  It was a great day with lots of good food, swimming, and visiting. 
Pool Basketball was a BIG hit!

Nana had to show us her moves too!

Trey found a buddy in Kyle

Makena was soakin' up some sun!

Kyle showed Trey how to make a Mohawk...well, he tried
anyway!

Carl and T.R. were pondering something!

Makena and Keely had fun playing in the pool together

T, just being T

Papaw T.R.'s birthday cake

Poor Brock couldn't wait for us to leave so he could get out
and play!

We got home around 8 and all the kids were in bed by 9.  And if you're wondering, NOBODY fell asleep on the way home in the car!  Yes, it was oh so much fun :)  We aren't looking too forward to Nana and Papaw T.R. moving to Jonesboro because of that long drive! 

Today we went to church and ate afterwards.  It was our Homecoming service.  Bro. Jeff told us all about the history of our church and the stand that it has taken in our community for over 130 years!  How awesome is that?!  It was great weekend and we are looking forward to a great revival this week.  My brother-in-law, Cody will be bringing the messages each night, so we will get to hang out with the Simpson's for a few days this 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!...

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 ...
