Happy Thanksgiving

Yesterday we spent lunch at Papa and Grammy's house.  The food was wonderful (as always) and the kids had fun playing with Hadlee, Noah, Elijah, and Ellie Kate. I feel really bad because I didn't get many pictures, but I was trying to help keep things clean and visit.  I also had to show off the video of Trey being a turkey. 
So much excitement, he can hardly stand it!

Now, Makena is happy :)
Carlie made up a Thanksgiving play and got Grammy to help.
On limited resources and no help from me, she made the costumes herself, too :)
She also recruited Aunt Jamie and Trey

Last night we went to my Papaw's house for Thanksgiving and my Dad's Aunt brought these pictures of my dad and his little sisters.  I about flipped out, look at how much Trey looks like my dad!!  We all know that he acts like him, but it's unreal how much he looks like him as a kid.
We had a fun and busy Thanksgiving and we ended it by heading into Stuttgart to get a few things at Walmart.  BIG MISTAKE!!  At 7:45 they were already lining up for the sale that began at 10:00.  One time, I was brave enough to do that and I don't think I'll probable ever do it again.  My Mom and Grammy are firm believers in Black Friday shopping.  I don't like to shop. Period.  So fighting and pushing for what I want surly doesn't appeal to me!  We got outta there ASAP! 
It was a fun and exhausting day filled with lots of memories for the kiddos. 
Happy Thanksgiving!

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...
