First Deer of the Season

The first deer of the season in the Munger House goes to......Carlie!   That's right, she got up this morning and went hunting with Carl.  I thought she'd want to sleep in since we got in late, but she was up and ready to go!  They left the house around 5:45 or so and Carl said she shot her deer aroung 7:15!  He was very proud because she shot it all by herself :)  She really enjoys it and teases Carl because he hasn't got one yet!  Here is the picture he sent me from his phone:
I love seeing her this happy!

This afternoon Carl took Makena hunting.  Funny thing is right before time to come in from hunting they saw and deer and she had it perfect in her scope, but when Carl told her to shoot, she froze!!  She told me that she couldn't shoot it because it was looking at her.  She really wasn't ashamed of it either.  She has such a sweet, tender, heart :)  Here is a picture he took of her going to the stand:
She looks like she's ready to hunt!  She kept texting me the whole
afternoon! 

I had to tthrow this picture of Trey in from last weekend.  Carl took him bowhunting with him, just because he knew he wanted to take the girls gun hunting this weekend.  So it was really just to satisfy him, but he loved it! 
Notice the heater....we don't rough it too much around here:)

While Carl and Makena were hunting, Carlie, Trey, and I went over to Nanny and Pop's to eat some yummy chili and then T, Carlie, and Pop played a game of UNO.  Trey was so happy that he won!  He really won :)  Nobody let him win, he just did. 
Happy Hunting!

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...
