Goofing Off

I don't even know what these blankets are called....they are
like pillow pets, only blankets!  They got them somewhere for
Christmas.  Anyway, they were being so silly and decided to be
their animals: Bunny (Carlie), Giraffe (Trey), and Unicorn (Makena).

I had a GIANT bunny in my house :)

Trey needed to relax after a hard day at school :)

Today was back to school for us, and believe it or not Trey didn't even complain about it!  He has been adjusting pretty well to getting up and going.  I think he actually enjoys it.  He just has a few things to learn about what is and what is not acceptable at school.   He did get a stick pulled for the first time today for being out of his chair.  He said that he thought he was supposed to be up because the video teacher said to get up.  I don't know.   He is learning though because I ask him everyday what he learned and he'll tell me.  Today he recited is first poem: "The Birdie With The Yellow Bill".  It was so cute to hear him say it :)
The girls are doing great too.  They both have LOADS of homework most every night and Makena is telling me that she wants to go to public school because they don't hardly ever have homework.  That isn't an option.  They are both making all A's so far :)
Carl hasn't started rice harvest yet, but unless it rains it will be tomorrow or Wednesday.  I want them to hurry and get started so they can be done, but I always dread being a single mom for those weeks.  Thankfully we always have Sundays together :) 
I am thoroughly enjoying my time at school...almost as much as I enjoy my two days at home alone :)  I work with some great people that are becoming great friends. 
I realize that all of the above seemed pretty random, but I just wanted to give an update on what we've been up too.

Friday Favorites

 Happy Friday, Friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. What a week it has been! Having picnics with Wrenley and Makena were pretty high up on my favorites list. She wanted a lunchable (big surprise there!) while Makena and I had tuna salad. Playing outside is a must with Wrenley! And she loves making sure the bird bath has plenty of water! Another thing on my favorites list is listening to Trey play the guitar. This smile is also my favorite! We had a celebration for my son-in-law, Caleb this week. He is a pretty great guy and we are thankful that he is "ours" now :)  He is my favorite son-in-law! As I was studying for my Gospel Project lesson earlier this week I realized we only have 3 more lessons! That means that summer break is just 3 weeks away (for our Wednesday night program)! Although I will still have to prepare lessons for Sunday School and VBS.  Summer is my favorite! This summer will be extra sp...

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 ...
