Harvest Supper

Carlie, Trey, and Makena were working so hard on their
Thanksgiving place mats for the Harvest Supper at church.

Tonight was our annual Harvest Supper at church.  The kids and I spent Tuesday night finishing up place mats that our Discovery group started last week.  Carl was gone to deer camp so we just made our place mats and ate grilled cheese, all while listening to our church Christmas program on CD :) 
I always enjoy the Harvest Supper so much because we all just fellowship, eat, sing, and then Bro. Jeff does a short devotion.  It's always such a good time.
This is not going to be my "Thanksgiving" post, but I do want to stay just how thankful I am for my church family.  They have been beside me through graduating high school, to me and Carl getting married, having my babies, through the death of grandparents, good and bad times.  They have always been there lifting me up in prayer, encouraging me, teaching me,  and showing me love.  They are my "special family" :) 
Tomorrow is our school's Thanksgiving Banquet and guess who got the starring roll as Turkey?!  That would be the cutest little turkey EVER, T!  The part fits him so well.  I have had the privilege of watching them practice most of the week, and let me just say, he really hams it up!  I'm going to video it and try to upload it on here.  I don't have much luck with that....our Internet connection is not the best, but if I can't get it on here, I'll try it over at Mom's.

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...
