Ready To Hunt!

Makena and Carlie riding the 4wheelers in the woods
by Carl's deer stand/honey hole :)
We looked around and found T on his way up to the climbing
stand.  Of course then he had to pause for a picture!
Then Carlie thought she needed to pose for me too!
And Makena sat on the 4wheeler and watched us :)

Carl and Trey checking out the deer feeder.

Today was a great day for a ride through the woods to check out the deer stands and feeders and cameras.  Carl hasn't really been bow hunting because he's been really busy and it's been extremely warm!  When we were out there today it was almost 90 degrees.  That's WAY too warm to be hunting here.  Mosquitoes almost ate us up before we could get back on the 4 wheelers.  Carl has lots of deer on his game cameras including one monster buck...even bigger than the buck he killed at the farm last year! 
After we finished we came back home and Carl cleaned out his truck and vacuumed my car out and I took a nap!  I have just been so tired lately.  I guess stress will do that to you.  We had to be at church early for another one of those lovely 5:30 meetings...UGH!  The kids are in the midst of taking 9 weeks exams and we spend a lot of time studying and trying to make sure we know the study guide front to back with our eyes closed!  So far we've made nothing but A's on the exams we have taken, and I don't want that to change!  Ah, there is no rest for the weary :)
I saw this sign on Pinterest a while back and it fits us so right, right now:

We will, I have faith we will.  And when we are given another new year, we are going to change a lot of things.  To be honest, I can't wait until the new year for that very reason :)

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'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...
