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! 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

  Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for the first Friday Favorites of 2025! Over the past three weeks, I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to spend more time with Wrenley. She is growing up so much. She is speaking in full sentences and is a clown to boot! We've enjoyed lots of naps in BeBe's bed, playing with baby dolls (one of her favorite things), and since I have to pick her up before 7 a.m. on the days she stays with me, we enjoy getting her favorites: donuts (nonuts) and hotcakes from McDonald's -not at the same time though! Snug as a bug in a rug! She loves her Ky Ky Another favorite is a clean kitchen! We have had our house in a bit of chaos like I'm sure everyone else has with all the holiday festivities (and with Carl being off). I am glad to have everything in its proper place! That ray of sunshine is therapy for my soul! The next thing on my favorites list is Carl's chili. We had it last night and will probably have leftovers for a few day...

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...
