Macks Fall Festival 2011

Jacob and Troy Landry at Macks Prairie Wings in Stuttgart :)
They were there from 10-3 today and we didn't get to meet them because we went to church before going to Macks, but it was okay because we got a pretty good picture of them :)  The kids had a good time playing games, rock climbing, and getting free stuff.  It was SUPER crowded.  Even people that come every year said that it was more crowded than ever.  Here are some of the pictures that I took there.  Some of them are poor quality due to my phone.



Trey loved the bouncy slide!

Carlie, climbing the rock wall
Makena tried, bless her heart, but this was as far up as she got.
Trey even got to climb.  It looked like a lot of fun!
I almost wanted to try it, except that all the adults were standing around watching
and I didn't want to be the one who couldn't get off the ground.

They had targets for the kids to shoot at.  He was
trying to shoot a bear.  He missed (twice)!
Now it was Carlie's turn!
Makena was the last in line, and sadly none of them made the arrow stick!
It was pretty fun, if you don't mind standing in line for EVERYTHING!

This was a great weekend filled with LOTS of family time, which is my favorite.  I hope that my kids are always close to each other and always take care of each other.

Monday Morning Chit-Chat

  Happy Monday, friends! Well, here we are again. Another Monday morning, another fresh week, and another cup of coffee that I'm hoping will magically give me the energy to accomplish all the things on my to-do list. Spoiler alert: It probably won't. But I'm going to drink it anyway. I thought we would start this week with a little old-fashioned chit-chat. Nothing too serious, nothing life changing. Just a little catching up on life lately, a few random thoughts, and whatever else happens to pop into my head. you know, the kind of conversation we'd have if you stopped by my house, pulled up a chair, and stayed a while. So grab your coffee (or whatever gets you going in the morning), and let's visit. First things first...it's October! This year is absolutely flying by. I love this time of year. The cozy evenings, the fall decorations, the soups and comfort foods, and the excuse to stay home in my pajamas a little longer. Now if Arkansas could just get the memo t...

What's Up Wednesday

 Happy What's Up Wednesday! Today I am linking up with  Shay  and  Sheaffer  for another "What's Up Wednesday" Let's do this! What we're eating this week... So far this week we have made: Wings on the Pit Boss Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Chops You can't get any easier than wings and chops! Especially when they are on the grill and slow cooker!! What I'm Reminiscing About... Septembers past: September is Trey's birth month. It is also the month that my grandpa died four years ago. This is the year that Papa gave Trey a gun for his birthday. He was so proud to give it to Trey and you can tell by the look on Trey's face how happy he was. Such a sweet moment to remember. Our county fair is also in September. My kids used to love it when they were younger. They still love rides, just not the traveling kind :) This was Wrenley's school picture last year. She has grown so much in one year :) What I'm Loving... Makena and my mom have started mak...

Be Her: When Our Ideal Self Becomes an Idol

 Ella Langley's "Be Her" got me thinking about something I think a lot of women struggle with- the woman we think we should be.  You know her. She's more disciplined. More confident. More put together. She exercises, keeps the house clean, reads her Bible every morning, never loses her patience, and somehow always has good hair. We tell ourselves, If I could just be her..... And there's nothing wrong with wanting to grow. But what happens when the woman we want to become turns into an idol? Sometimes we become so focused on our ideal self that we forget to ask God who He wants us to become. There's a subtle difference between praying, "Lord, make me more like Christ," and saying, "Lord, help me to become the woman I've decided I need to be." One is surrender. The other can easily become control.  Philippians 1:6 reminds us that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God isn't waiting fo...
