Saturday at Home

Finally we got to stay home on a weekend!  This is the first in about 3 and on top of all the running around Christmas shopping that we've been doing, I needed the break.  But to start my morning off I had to make a trip into town to go to the clinic :(  Thankfully it was nothing bad, I just needed some medicine for my cold sores.  So when I got back home I had to finish laundry, make the kids clean their rooms, and all that fun stuff!  Carl and Trey went outside and grated the driveway and burned a few leaves.  It was so cold and windy out there, I don't know how they stayed out in it! 
Carl, working hard

Trey is a big helper

Meanwhile, Carlie and Makena were playing Monopoly inside where it was a little warmer.

While the girls went for a make-up piano lesson this afternoon, Trey and I played trains, trucks, cars, tractors, and whatever else he wanted to play :)  It reminded me of last year when he wasn't in school yet, so I said, "Trey, this reminds me of when you didn't go to school.  I miss spending time with you like we used to.  Do you miss me?"  And without skipping a beat he said, "not really." :(  But then he said he did a little!  Carl is still hunting, but not seeing a lot.  He said he saw 8 does this evening but they were running and he couldn't get a shot at them.  Oh, well, he can't have a season, every season like last years.  There is still time though. 
That pretty much wraps up our Saturday spent at home.  I just realized that I hardly ever post anything unless we are doing "something somewhere", and since this is our scrapbook, I wanted to keep it real with our boring stuff too :)

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...
