Another Bonfire Friday Night

Wow, another week has gone by and it's almost now it's almost October!  I just looked at our calendar for October and the first three weekends are full of birthdays, The Macks Fall Festival (to see Swamp People's Troy and Jacob), and the the last Friday night of the month is Hunter's (Carl's nephew) Senior Night, so we will be making the trip to Cherry Valley to watch him play :)  We also have Farm Safety Day, a pumpkin patch visit, and Parent Teacher Conferences at school!  Staying busy is usually a good thing.  I guess we will find out :)
Poor Trey was sick Tues. and Wed. with a fever virus.
He just ran fever which mad him feel yucky.  This is the first time he has been sick in a very long time and I felt so bad for him because he would just lay around and sleep.  He ended up missing two days of school. 

He went back to school on Thursday
so our Friday night bonfire was on :)

Carlie walked out in flip-flops, so I had to go back up to
the house and get her some socks and shoes....she talked
her Daddy into putting them on her.

Our fire.
Roasting some marshmallows

Makena was telling Carl exactly like she wanted hers.

Carlie had fun riding the 4wheeler

Trey got a little crazy after a few marshmallows and some coke....SUGAR HIGH!!
I believe he was dancing to YMCA at this point!

Trey took this picture of us :)

The kids have so much fun doing this.  They like to ride their bikes in the dark and ride the big 4wheeler.  They are asking to have friends over and have a bonfire.  Trey wants to camp out with one of his little friends and the girls just want to have a sleepover.  Sounds like a fun night to me.....maybe sometime before it gets too cold, you know, in my spare time!

Friday Favorites

  Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

Friday Favorites

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
